Not sure if this is legal here - but my Epson R1900 recently died and I've had to order a new printer. Which leaves me with a bunch of ink that I can't use. Anyone interested in the ink? ~bruce.

Have you tried posting on Freecycle? As far as I know, it's International but you register with your local Freecycle, free registration. You can then post an 'Offered' post regarding your ink. The chosen recipient will arrange with you as to best time to collect etc. I watch Freecycle in my area in UK and have both acquired and given some very good items Apologies if you have already considered this option Julie

There is always Ebay as well if you can't find someone to take it off your hands

Bruce I have an Epson 1900. Curious, what did you buy as a replacement?

Ended up splurging and ordered the Epson SureColor P800. I know it is overkill - but I had a 10% off, plus rebate of $250 plus a $50 upgrade rebate - all thru Epson. The reason for the 800 vs the 600 - Epson is currently sold out of the 600 but also the amount the ink cartridges hold in the 800. It cuts the cost of printing an 8.5X11 in half. In doing my ancient form of math - I figured that a little over 1 set of cartridges for the 800 would pay over buying 3+ sets of cartridges for the 600. So In the long/short of it - It should pay for the difference in time. I"m currently printing a lot - catching up on our photo albums. Also printing 17" inch wide vs 13" is a little intriguing.
