Yes you can. Be sure you use the Inktec pigment inkset especially formulated for the Epson piezo printhead. I beleive the R1390 is the same as the Epson 1400 (6 colour system CcMmYK). You should consider using a CISS-system instead of refilling the cartridges and also to redirect the tubing of the waste ink pad to an external bottle to increase the life of your waste ink pad dramatically.

Thank you for your info. What about Epson R1900? Its so hard to find inktec product. Is there another alternative type of inktec that we can use?

You want to look at the pigment ink of Image Specialist's (cheapest supplier: www.precisioncolors.com). I use the K4 ink of IM in my Epson Pro 3800 and the results are astonishingly good.
