TYPICAL COST SAVINGS
A bulk ink feed system for the Epson Photo 1400 ships with 6 x 4 oz bottles of Fotonic XG ink and costs $ 325.00. This is
the same amount of ink as contained in over 48 original cartridges. The manufacturers stated retail price for an original
cartridge is $ 18.99. This means that the system ships with the equivalent amount of ink as $ 911.52 worth of original
cartridges,
an immediate saving of $ 586.52. Ongoing savings are even higher. A 4 oz refill bottle of Fotonic XG ink
costs $ 21.00 and contains the equivalent ink as over 8 original cartridges, or $ 151.92 worth. This makes the
equivalent
cost per cartridge $ 2.63
by using bulk ink, a saving of over 80%.  

The savings from using Ink2image bulk ink can be quite considerable. A user who, for instance, consumed a set of
normal cartridges per week on this printer model would spend around $ 5,924.88 per year on original cartridges. By
using a bulk ink feed system the cost for the equivalent bulk ink would be $ 819,
a saving of $ 5,105.88 per year.

Several ink options are available with the bulk ink feed system for the Epson Photo 1400. The i2i Absolute Match E2 inks
provide a close color match to the original Epson Claria inks, but with no claims of enhanced fade resistance - they have
the archival life of a normal dye based ink. The E2 inks provide excellent color and an economical ink solution for users
who are not concerned about the long term display life of their images. For longer archival life, the latest
Fotonic XG inks
are color matched to the Claria inks and have the same type of enhanced fade resistance. A third option for Epson 1400
owners is to consider converting the printer to run the
Cave Paint R24 pigment inks. These inks provide great color
combined with extremely long archival life, and essentially turn the 1400 into a 13" wide true pigment printer at several
hundred dollars savings over the normal Epson 13" wide pigment ink models. Ink2image supplies systems for the Epson
Photo 1400 that come with 6 x 4 oz bottles of the R24 inks. Two black options are available - Photo Black for printing on
all media types, and Matte black for getting the deepest, richest blacks on matte or fine art papers.

Users of the Photo 1400 should be aware that the new design of the cartridge bay introduced by Epson on this printer
means that the cartridge bay lid must be removed to install a bulk ink feed system. Once removed, the cartridge bay lid
can not be re-installed and removal of the lid may invalidate the manufacturers warranty. However, this printer works fine
with the cartridge bay lid removed and can be used with standard cartridges again if required.
