I've had my Epson 890 for a couple of weeks now. Finally, I had an opportunity to print all those digital pictures that have been piling up in my computer. I made about 40-50 4X6 photos from one color cartridge. I knew I would be running out quick, as I had a lot to do, so I orded the extra cartridge when I got the printer.
This is great because now you can share your digital pictures on the fly with people who don't have a computer.
When the ink cartridge ran out in the middle of my run of 4" roll paper pictures,it just stopped told me to change it, offered to walk me through the process (I took the offer) and then started right back up where it left off.
Nice, simple and easy. I like that.
No ruined photos, no wasted paper.
Replacing the ink was as simple as:
1. Open the lid
2. Respond to the computer's offer to position the ink cartridge head.
3. Open the lever of the color cartridge.
4. Take out and discard the old cartridge.
5. Open the new cartridge packaging, remove the blue tape.
6. Place the new cartridge in its spot and relatch.
7. Close the lid.
8. Tell the computer you are done, and you're off.
