That's pretty much what they do. The Printers are usually priced only a little higher than a new set of ink for the printer. Taylor

Certainly not selling one to me. Middle age is when you can finally afford the things that a young man could truly enjoy.

A set of inks for that device can cost in excess of $2000 $2000 sounds like a bunch, but you need BIG tanks to make a worthwhile number of 60" wide prints, so it isn't as bad as it sounds. Consider a 60" print might be $200+ at a lab and paying $2000 for a set of tanks that can make a few dozen of those is a good deal. Taylor
