I have had my Epson 2400 printer for 4 years now. Still going strong, produces great pictures. Epson ink is very good. But just like any other inkjet printer. They are making quit a bit of money on the ink. A whole inkset for this printer is $100 at a discounted price. And in the years since it has been out and replaced by a newer updated unit. The price of the ink has not gone down. But what can you do. Once you buy the printer your stuck with buying their ink until you get a differnt printer.

I have always had great luck with Epson printers and ink. I have used them exclusively for my photography. Maybe I never appreciated them enough in the past. I recently bought another brand printer for my church. The ink cartridges on the competitor's printer are a real mess to change and leak everywhere. This has never been the case with my Epson printers. I guess I will appreciate Epson more in the future.Best Deals for EPSON T059220 Cyan Ink Cartridge - Stylus Photo R2400
The Epson Photo Stylus R2400 printer that I have is a great printer for photographers, but the inks are hard to find locally. the nearest place to me to buy them is 15 miles away. It does not make since to drive that far with gas prices what they are, not to mention my time spent driving. With Amazon Prime I put in an order and 2 days later I receive the ink with no shipping charge. This is the way to go for a busy photographer.Honest reviews on EPSON T059220 Cyan Ink Cartridge - Stylus Photo R2400
There are two places I can find ink for my R2400 other than amazon. Adorama (which sells them in amazon) and Atlex.Both are almost the same as far as pricing except Adorama's shipping is free. Atlex is close to my studio so I can drive there if I want to pick up some ink or paper the same day if it is required.
On a side note I hate that companies try to force you to upgrade and create landfills of these machines that work well. I had to run a special program to stop the printer from auto-stopping which Epson does to make sure the quality of it's prints doesn't diminish which is another way of saying that you need to throw away the machine and buy another. Planned Obsolescence in other words. I hope to continue using this printer for several more years. The price of ink has gone up every year and it used to cost $9 and now it's up to $13 per cartridge.
