Default Photo Printer

You can get bulk kits for the i9900 and the older i9100.

Pigment inks are supposed to last longer. However, you have to take Epson's
word on that as there is no real world proof that the high cost inks will
last anywhere close to the time Epson says. All of their tests are faked in
a lab.

Also, look at what Epson says you have to do to get the supposed 100 year
life span. You have to use only certain papers, store in a special way, etc.
Nothing that the vast majority or people will ever do. Its a joke and a
gimick to charge you through the nose for ink and paper.

Also with the Epson printer you can get a bulk ink kit. I you intend to
do
may 8x10 you will need one to afford to pay for the ink.
