epson inkjet printers will consume more ink to print

Any printer that uses ink jet is a rip off. A few years back, someone in a computer magazine once calculated the cost of ink jet consumables to fill the average gas tank; 13 gallons would cost about $345,000.00. The industry has always existed on the razor and blade business model, that is, they give you the razor for free but you ll have to constantly buy their expensive blades. Another example of this is the diabetic glucose monitors. You get the machine dirt cheap but have to pay through the nose when buying the reagent strips. Hence, ink jet printers (all of them) are obtainable via almost give away prices. That is, they WANT you to have them, meaning you re forced to use their ink supplies. Best bargain? Buy any laser printer. Its a much better value overall even if you wind up paying more upfront initial cost. The cost of ownership is less over time, and the print is much sharper too. Ralph

Although some might be worse all ink jet printers seem to be heavy on ink. All printers should have an adjusting procedure by which the intensity can be lowed resulting in less use. In an attempt to sell more the manufacturers may reduce the ink in a cartridge.
