Digital BW, The Print

Richard,

What you heard is patently false. There will come a point in which it may become physically impossible but not illegal. What you heard may be related to an ITC law that prevents the import of small format compatible Epson carts. However, just last month the US Patent Office ruled that the Epson patents used to gain that ITC ruling are invalid due to prior art.

At Inkjetmal.com we've been supplying both ConeColor and Piezography inks into the 7900, 9900, 7890, & 9890 printers. We have a system for the R3000, also. We're about to launch the 4900. As quickly as Epson can develop new printers we try to develop new ink systems. We just launched ConeColor Pro which has improvements directly related to the new generation of print heads. Piezography is already very compatible with the latest print heads.

regards,

Jon Cone

I have heard that Epson has made it either impossible or illegal to use third party inks with that series of printers.  Is that true? and If it is true, aren't third party inks for large format professional Epson printers pretty much limited over the one to two generations as the currently compatible printers phase out?
