This is were the individual tanks come in handy.I get about 48 
8x10's from a full head on the Canon S 800.Works out to about 4-4.50 
per sheet.(Canadian$)
I found Kodak paper did not work well with this printer,but am happy 
with the Canon Photo Paper Pro and Ilfords Classic Gloss and Classic 
Pearl.Drying time on the latter is about 15-20 minuites were as the 
Canon is workable right away.
I'm happy with Canon stuff.

Subject: OT: Epson ink use & printing issues


I bought a new color cartridge for my Color 740 last weekend. �I've 
been
printing a lot this week, trying to figure out why all my prints look
washed-out. �You may recall I was asking about color 
management. �I've
printed about eight 5X7 photos and a few smaller ones and now the 
ink's low
again. �Is this normal? �How do you digital darkroom guys afford to 
print
your photos? �With the price I paid for that cartridge, it works out 
to
about $3.50 per print.
BTW, I finally got some that look just *OK*. �Certainly, I've not 
printed
anything I would pay for yet.

I've been printing on Kodak Matte picture paper. Would I be getting 
markedly
better looking prints on a glossy high-end paper?

If I get a new printer, (~$100-150) should I get another Epson?
