    i have a ink system from ink label.com.It doesnt work at all with my epson c86 even though it says its compatable.I have broken 2 c86 printers trying to get them working,now these printers wont even work using genuine cartridges.
    Im looking to buy a ink system with sub ink already set up for me to use immediately.Any ideas?Really to get some mugs and plates pressed and start making some money.
    Any ideas ?
    cheers

    Have a look at http://www.thetransferpress.co.uk The bulk systems they sell are reliable and easy to set up as the carts and tubes are prefilled.

    Cheers

    Hi I did reply to the earlier post but that was removed or closed by the mods I presume, I have the same system from inkjet and it is a nightmare to set up, the black ink cable broke loose when I was checking for blockages, lost the ink and took me hours to clean up.

    If you do get a decent system let me know how you get on.

    Thanks

    Hi guys

    I got my printer (1290) with a bulkfeed system from printerowners http://www.printerowners.co.uk.

    ended up getting a complete mug package from them. carts came primed all i had to do is attach the tubes to the bulk bottles and i was up and running within 15 mins.

    cheaper than the transferpress package deal

    really helpfull, if you phone try and speak to a martin broad (director), great guy.

    Kev

    Xpress also do a bulk ink system, I think it’s about £600 fitted, the Epson 1290 from them is £300 and I’m sure you could blag yourself some freebees
