Ultrachrome costs

Ultrachrome costs

2006-08-25 by Richard Smallfield

Hi,
a long time ago I asked this question, but have since lost the answer and can't find it by doing a search.

Does anyone have a figure for the cost per A4 paper of Ultrachrome K2 inks?

thanks,
Richard

Richard the link I use for this is   http://www.luminous-
landscape.com/essays/4000-cost.shtml .   It is a very good article 
just remember the amounts are in Canadian dollars!   Best, Phil

I tracked my Epson 2200 ink usage for quite some time and arrived at ~$2.30
CDN to make an 8 x 10 print.

Ink cart size is all important to calculating the costs.  What size ink carts?
