Hey, I don't know why everybody's asking me what ink I'm using. It's there - pigment inks - the last two words of the first paragraph. And no, I didn't edit that line. :)

The main drawback with spraying cans, is that you need to get yourself outside every time you want to apply a coat, and...
I'd like to experiment at some point with natural shellac diluted in ethanol, as well as with industrial grade water-based polyurethane (wood varnish), to protect paper or canvas prints with pigment inks.
Shellac is UV and dirt resistant - although it doesn't like heat, water, or scratching. It...
There are ARC and non-ARC cartridges for 7310 straight from China. For example, the one I was looking at first is this one:

It comes in CISS, ARC cartridges, and chipless cartridge variants. Many times a printer model is supported but isn't...
Once more, thorough and plenty of information. Don't you ever get tired?
That explains a lot. I suppose opting for a resetter ensures a more streamlined experience than with an ARC and, if I read you right, there's no need to worry about syncing issues and warning messages at all with a manual...
All right, I think I'll go with plain non-CISS refillable cartridges, and OctoInkjet inks. So, I have a couple more questions if I may.
I'm strongly considering the UltraChrome K3 inks. I saw some comparisons between photo and matte black ink on glossy, although I found none on a quality...
Right, it uses all pigmented ink, I got confused somehow. I want a flexible all-arounder printer with decent quality, for poster art, photos, and game prototypes. Since the WF-7310DTW ticks all the boxes, and uses pigments, I'm after pigment bottles. Any additional information about inks and...
It's confusing, but WorkForce WF-7310DTW doesn't use pigment in all colours:

Ink 405 is pigment BK, and dye CMY. On the other hand, there's also a WorkForce Pro 7310, which uses all colours pigmented, ink T812:

Maybe they target the European and American markets...
Very informative, I appreciate it.
In regards to EcoTanks, I'm after an A3+ model, and the lowest priced one, the L1300, costs 200€ more than the sum of the WorkForce plus the CISS, and I also read some discouraging comments about its nozzles drying too fast. I don't know if I can justify the...
I'm thinking of buying the Epson WF-7310DTW, and attach a continuous ink supply system, with resettable chips for the refillable cartridges and the maintenance box. This printer accepts a pigment-based BK, and three dye-based CMY cartridges.
My intention is to use genuine Epson bottled ink from...
