Wow, second time I've seen this question in a 24 hour period. Brian,
do you, by any chance, post as "Benoit MATHIEU" on photo.net?

Anyway, here's what I said over there:

The inks are actually made by a company in New York called Image
Specialists. If my database is correct, Eboni is actually Image
Specialists WJ1106 (but I would email Image Specialists to confirm).
MIS is just one US distributor, along with WeInk (aka GetInkExpress).
Distributors get ink from Image Specialists in 1/2 gallon (about 2
liter) and gallon (4l) jugs, or 5 gallon (20l) drums, and load it into
4 ounce (or 125ml bottles, on your side of the pond) or printer carts
and sell it to those of us who can't afford gallon jugs of ink (or
don't want to handle or store them. If you've even the results of a 5
gallon ink spill... But I digress)

Image Specialists has three European distributors: TECNOdigital sas in
Italy, Gemini Colours B.V. in the Netherworld, and A&V Slovakia,
s.r.o. in Slovokia (obviously).

Hope this helps.

Ciao!
