Those carts from Amazon look the very same as the ones I originally got from Octopus.de ....Ops... My Chinese knockoffs are better...

Thank you. I had a feeling. At this point I will be ordering from AliExpress if I get the Maxify.

It might be a good idea to study the "My Maxify is on refill ink" thread and ask for the newest recommendations.

Thank you, Peter. I have been following this thread all along but have not re-read it as of yet.

I had forgotten about these two photos, so here they are after all this time exposed to daylight since they were originally taken. (Both had a coating of “GO” applied)

It is clear the dye print is starting to fade, but so is the pigment print, these were printed using old I.S. inks, and that level of fade is well within my acceptable limits and I’m perfectly happy with both these two inks.

Would OEM ink have fared any better, most likely but I wouldn’t have printed these test prints if I was using OEM inks, because the cost would have been to prohibitive, and 3rd party inks are in my mind way ahead of OEM for cost, enjoyment and pleasure..
