Epson R265 (R260 in US)

2007-02-05 by Chris Aitken

Hi All,

I say one of these tonight in PC World for £49.99 (about $100 due to
the exchange rate). It appears to be the same printer (specs are the
same atleast) as the R360, but without the LCD display or the card
slots.

We can't justify a dedicated B+W printer, but I have had good results
from a profiled HP920c, so I'm sure profiling a new Epson should
provide results as good.
Assuming I went down the profiling route, could you recommend the
included epson inks, or would you suggest buying different inks?

Thanks,
Chris

It appears that there are no third party inks available yet for those printers.
