You have supplied me most recently with a new replacement CISS system with ink for my Brother MFC-J6720DW. The old one, which has become a bit messy, has worked perfectly for two years or so, giving excellent print quality with vibrant colours, noticeably better than the standard or own brand replacement ink cartridges and at vastly cheaper prices. So much so that my newer Epson WF-7710 is now fitted with this system and I look forward to many years good service from that too.

 

In fact, I so much like this system of ink supply that I have bought a replacement printer for my girlfriend in Ghana, Africa - an Epson ET-2600 - which has this kind of system built in, and she too is now full of enthusiasm over it. Keep up the good work. I will be back for more inks in due course for all these machines.

 

Thank you so much.

Having thought long and hard before buying a CISS system, I have to say that the last 3 years have changed my mind completely. The simplicity of the CISS system from Cityink Express and the the staggering sums of money saved make this a must have for parents (since so much can wasted by kids) and business alike. Once setup, you simply pull out the cartridge and re-seat it, (I usually wait 4-5 secs) to make it be recognised once more.

 

Think of it this way, the cost of the entire CISS system is less than 2 original ink sets from EPSON!

 

Quality - The prints that I have produced are excellent and have been used in friends official wedding photo albums the print outs are that good. Could a skilled artist or expert designer tell the difference between inks? Not sure, however they normally use colour laser-jets, which are far too expensive for us. Assuming you use the correct photo quality paper, then the ink dries immediately, everytime! Also works fine on normal paper, if it stays wet, it is the fault of the paper, not the inks, I can assure you.

 

Refilling - With the CISS system this is almost never required, however the first fill up is straightforward and links to YouTube videos can be found including some from Cityinks.

 

TIP: Make sure the cables are not too tight, or do not bend too much or it can restrict ink flow.

Having already fitted a CISS system to my Epson XP-202 and achieved excellent results.

 

When my God Daughter in Russia asked for a new printer for her birthday, I got her a new Epsom XP-342 and it went without saying City Ink Express's CISS system for the new printer.

 

Easy to set up with video help, she now doesn't worry about how many pictures she prints off because of the cost of cartridges.

 

Both her and my printers working great.

 

Thanks City Ink Express.

My first attempt to pick the pockets of those who make a fortune selling us a few mills of ink for a huge mark up. I did my homework, found the appropriate videos to watch (are you taking notes here?). Watched the videos again, watched for different machines to make sure they were not all the same but specific and took the plunge.

 

So far so good.

 

Delivery spot on ; ordered (At Bank Holiday weekend) on Friday and arrived Tuesday.

 

Packaging: sturdy box well packed. Contents more than adequate to do the job.

 

I had done my research and admire the people here make their video guides available to everyone.

 

I was sure I could do the filling process and ignored the advice to use one of the supplied large syringes... Big Mistake! If you have a shaky hand use the syringe (I’m still washing the ink off my fingers (which shows its good stuff I guess).

 

The guides are brilliant they make a simple process, well, simple! I’m printing off my song lists and the ink is no problem I did no Lab test research but it goes on, dries, no runs, no fading, no problem – as good as any I’ve bought ( I think). This is my first time using this service and am enjoying the freedom to print reams of stuff rather than only print essentials. I’ll see how much I print and let you know in a few months time.

I have recently purchased a new set of cartridges for my Epson CISS printer and was really impressed with the price and service. Delivery was super quick and the help I got when I emailed was excellent.

I have been using City Ink Express for several years now and have gone through a couple of printers in that time. I use their CISS (constant ink supply system) with our printer that we use for our small business.

 

I wish I had found the CISS system earlier than I did as it has saved us a small fortune over the last few years that we have been using it.

 

Whenever I have have had occasion to order from City Ink Express, it has always been straight forward and it has been easy to talk to someone over the phone (a rare thing now) who will give me advice on say the best printer for our needs if the one we are using is coming to the end of it's life.

 

I highly recommend City Ink Express and would not even think about looking elsewhere.

I have been using City Ink Express for more years now than I can remember. I have used both their Continuous Ink Supply Systems (three of them) and their refillable ink cartridges.

 

Both have been very easy to use and VERY cost effective.

 

I have both ordered through their website and when not sure what I should be ordering, by phone to their very friendly and knowledgeable staff.

 

I highly recommend them and their products. I never think of looking anywhere else.

Today we have a fantastic review from Chris for his CISS. If you'd like to be entered in our monthly prize draw, and receive a discount on all dye and pigment ink purchases, send your review to reviews@cityinkexpress.co.uk.

 

I have just receive my 3rd CISS System and cant recommend them enough. I have a very high output of printing and it would cost me a fortune if I was to use manufacturer cartridges. Print quality as good as originals.

 

The reason I am on my 3rd is that the printers eventually give up and I have to renew. This gives me the opportunity to upgrade, but my first check is that there is a system to go with it. I have moved over to an Epson Printer this time as the new Brother didn't currently have a CISS system.

 

The CISS will pay for it self in a very short period of time, and is easy to install following the supplied on line video links. Go for it! You wont be disappointed.

Received the above by next day delivery. On unpacking I found that there were extra clips for holding the tubes, a bonus. Watched the videos on the web site and had the kit filled and primed within 15 minutes. An easy job. Fitted it, switched on and got the dreaded “cartridges not recognised” warning. Followed the instructions on the sheet provided but they did not cure the problem. Eventually realised that I had the bung in and the printer thought that the lid was always down. Re-installed cartridges with bung removed. Replaced bung and the cartridges were recognised and have been working fine ever since. All done within an hour. I’ve printed out twenty or so colour prints on the paper that I ordered with the ink system. Everything is working great, and the paper looks to be good value for money.

 

PROS:

  1. Easy to install.
  2. Coloured plugs make it easy to tell which colour is running low.
  3. Long tubes give you enough length to reach rear of printer.

 

CONS:

  1. Lid has to remain slightly open (not a problem for me).
