cp780 ink: can you buy ink alone for this thing?

nope, you cant buy the ink seperately and there is no other paper you can use but the canon that is made for this product. you have to buy the package which contains an ink casset and the paper. the ink and casset will run out together. I suggust buying the 108 which is 3x36 that way the cost is the cheapst. Another size I really like is the wallet size paper but you will also have to buy a tray for that one.

I haven't needed any ink. But if you can't find it on Amazon, I would go to the company's website.

i buy cheap ink that is compatable with the printer off of amazon. worrying about voiding the warranty is pure folly. they never honor warranties, and a printer is about $100 bucks when the additional warranty is 75% of that. never buy a warranty for anything that costs less than $500---it is a total waste of your money!

Yes, it comes with ink. Than register and Epson will give you 10 percent off on replacement ink.

That is an interesting price point! If you think their ink price is disgusting take a look at Ricoh's. Its laser cartridges easily add up to a downpayment on a new house! I did finally get Canadian support on the machine on the issue of making the network server feature work (use Firefox not Chrome if you are on a Mac) and once I networked it, it has not power-failed ever again. The internet server has to REMAIN ON all the time. Don't know how long that will last but it has turned out to be a gem for its low price tag.

I have never found just ink. I also have some extra paper but not a whole lot. Just had a lot one time when the ink cartridge jammed.

Unfortunately not... you will need to purchase new ink blocks for the 8570 series... FYI, you can find some "Starter" ink for less around the web, but be warned that the 8570 is programmed to reject the starter-ink after a certain number of starter ink input... the ink is identical apart from a uniquely positioned tab at the bottom of the ink that the printer identifies as starter-ink. It seems that xerox is using this as a way to prevent dealers/individuals from removing the ink from printer and selling separately. Of course the bottom line is that it adds to their bottom line. - Also note.... if you intend to use single sheet feeder, you will need to remove all paper in the other tray... the single sheet feeder is the only jam-free way that I have found to print on some card-stock paper. All the best.

Mine is very economical on ink. Not only that, but the 5 cartridge system is very efficient as well...with a combo cartridge you'd have to replace it any time you ran out of an individual color...run out of blue? replace the whole thing. run out of red? replace the whole thing. run out of yellow? replace the whole thing...with 5 cart. sys. you only replace the one that runs out. PLUS you can get ink cartridges for CHEAP on Ebay or Meritline.

You could also look for a local ink refiller. There's a store where I live that refills ink cartridges. It's very cheap and they put over 20% more ink in the cartridge than the manufacturers. (They don't fill them up.)

Yes. It comes with a syring and you can buy bottles of ink to fill at home. You should be able to take them to Costco and other ink stations to refill (though I haven't had a need to fill mine just yet).

You could, being as it's ink. But I would strongly recommend returning it if its not open and buying the regular stuff, being as the inkjet shrinky dinks are twice the price than the regular ones.

Just don't use Inktoneram Remanufactured Ink. I know of three Epson printers that would not accept it.

I'm really sorry to break your heart here, but you can't! The design is meant to make customers buy unecessary ink. If you want to print color but dont have black ink, it won't let you either. There is no way to bi-pass. I just recycled this printer and decided to buy a different printer by a different manufacturer. Make sure when you buy a new printer, that it has ability to print black and white or colors independently.

Only if you have the CIS system for that model printer. This is just the refill ink for a CIS system.

In my opinion, you don't need to do that. because once open the ink cartridge it cannot be sealed up unless you let it stay in the printer. In fact, this is my option.

yes, cartridge with inkif I were you, think twice about buying generic ink. It ruined my printer after a while. I too was trying to save money.
