At present I have three different Epson printers.
RX700
R300
CX8400
I use generic cartridges in all.
The CX8400 uses chips and they have made a system that works
successfully with the chips but it is not perfect.
Matter of fact the refills I got for the CX are from Ebay.
No blow ups no out right failures.
Just be aware that Epsons seems to go through a lot of ink. Read
reviews on Cnet first.
You should be able to get a comparable HP for a similar price and
their cartridges seem to last longer. (I have a few of those also)

I know this is anecdotal, but I do have one friend who refuses to buy third
party inks after one exploded in a printer bascially and ruined the
printer. Third party ink experiences? Good or bad? Company names? I
think barring an epson horror story we will probably get this printer...
