I use my R1800 for personal use. Since I can no longer purchase the replacement inks locally and I don’t want to fall to far behind technically, I was thinking about purchasing the R1900. Is there a visual or quality difference? I mostly print photos to matte paper (MOAB).

Carlos,

Why throw away a good printer? You can still buy genuine Epson inks online, and maybe for less than locally. Of course, there’s epson.com, but try newegg.com, macmall.com, jr.com, bhphotovideo.com, amazon.com and buy.com (but be sure to shop direct sales, not via their third parties).

I always shop online for my R2400 inks as they are never carried locally.

On the other hand, if you’re looking for an excuse to buy something new… <g>

I joined the Office Depot Advantage program. They stock R1800 ink in most of their stores and have it on line. AND they email coupons that are up to $10 off of a $30 purchase which can be used for ink. Then I get another 10% off as a member of the Advantage program. I end up paying a bit over $10 a cart.

Some folks are not in the US and may need to deal with customs in their countries when shopping online from the USA.
