Thanks for the suggestion. I have a feeling that I don't print enough to end up 
saving money on the better way of managing ink. When I read reviews, there were 
a lot of people who said that they had clogging problems if they didn't print 
often enough.... which is a problem I remember from the Epson printers I had in 
the past. The Canon printer I have now never had a single clog (but, of course 
the power is busted, so it cannot even scan).

Cheers,

Bill
