I contacted the team at CityInk, and asked quite a few questions. Very knowledgeable crew especially Zac who went the extra mile advising me.

 

Really pleased with the equipment, the inks are spot on, as good as the manufacturer original versions (but a fraction of the price).

 

I’m using regular now, and recommend to my friends.

 

Thanks again City Ink Express.

Cityink offers a lot of great products. I used these on all my printers (Canon, Epson, Brother) without ever having problems.

 

They are very professional and correct with the customers. Follow-ups and technical advice are always excellent.

 

I highly recommend these products that save us a lot of money while maintaining print quality.

I purchased the continuous ink system for my Epson 1500w after a recommendation and I am so pleased I did, not only was it very easy to install but the ink quality is superb and as a professional photographer this was important to me.

 

I had a few questions to ask when starting up and the customer service I received was faultless, thank you Louise. I also added an overflow ink tank which again was so easy and worked straight away.

 

I personally cannot recommend this system enough it is brilliant.

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).

3 Reasons Why CityInkExpress Is AMAZING!!

 

  1. I hate long reading documents on screens: The CISS has given me a painfully cost effective and cheap way to print PDF documents, manuals, comic books, emails and study materials without the worry of having to ration ink!
  2. I print photos in bulk: All those pictures I’ve taken for Facebook and Instagram are now backed up in hard copy on photographic photo paper, even those blurry ones that never got posted online (because I’m a sentimental fool) and I did it on the cheap!
  3. In 2018 I’ve ordered ink for the first time since 2016 (and I still have a lot of the previous ink left): I print en masse and still can’t believe what an amazing investment this has been. The dye ink I use is cheap and what ink is still left in the system has NOT discoloured, dried-out and prints to a high quality without issue. This is after 2 years of [the ink] sitting in the system!

 

I want to thank Zac and Shane from the City Ink team personally for their prompt, helpful, concise and friendly replies to several queries I had about my current order. Cheers, guys.

In case you hadn't already noticed, here at City Ink Express we are champions of the continuous ink supply system (CISS). We would argue that using a CISS rather than your standard printer ink cartridges is far more efficient, time-saving and will not affect the quality of your printing. As well as a professional and efficient printing job, opting for a CISS system over a standard printer cartridge will save you a very significant chunk of money indeed!

 

Here are the two main reasons why CISS systems save you money:

 

1. They last far longer than a traditional ink cartridge 


Your CISS system is a fairly large tank with four separate containers for the different coloured inks. There is significantly more room in each of these containers than in any individual printing cartridge meaning that naturally the ink in your CISS system will last far, far longer than in any ink cartridge for there is simply more of it! 

 

2. They are much cheaper to refill 


Though purchasing and setting up a CISS system can be relatively costly, once you have your system in place the price of the ink refills are dramatically less than you would pay for a standard ink cartridge. Therefore, with a CISS system you pay out once and then have a stress-free printing life with cheap refills, but with purchasing ink cartridges you pay out a hefty sum every time you're out of ink! 

 

And there you have it - the lowdown on CISS systems. We know which printing option we'd prefer. 

Here at City Ink Express we strive to offer a complete service to our customers. Our continuous ink supply systems can save you a tremendous amount of money - in some cases up to 80%. If you purchase our printer bundles then we'll do the tricky installation bit for you, ensuring your CISS system is properly fitted to your new system. If you're just going to order your CISS system and install it yourself however, then we want to ensure that we can provide you with any help you might need. 

 

Naturally we get dozens of enquiries on fitting CISS systems to different printer models every day, and it is nigh on impossible for us to get back to everyone - though we do try our best. To try and combat this problem we decided to create a City Ink Express YouTube Channel and create some fantastic easy-to-follow tutorials on fitting CISS systems to different printers, replacing ink in CISS systems and various other handy things. 

 

We've built up quite a library of tutorials and we're frequently adding new videos and based on some great feedback and regular sharing from you guys, we're pleased to announce they're going down really well! As long as there's a need, we will do our best to meet those needs by adding videos regularly.


We rely on our feedback to understand what you guys want to see and what you like to see. Chell said that "The quality [of her City Ink Express CISS system] is excellent and, with the photo step by step and the video on YouTube it was so simple, it was so easy to install" and another loyal customer told others "don't worry if you're unfamiliar with CISS, CityInk have provided helpful step-by-step videos for each system, available on Youtube." We're very thankful for your feedback and would love to keep hearing from you.

If you want to save pockets of money on printing  you need a CONTINUOUS INK SYSTEM.


The ink level does not seem to move down when printing not like with the original cartridges (blink and no ink )
It was so easy to set up and resetting when printer says cartridge is empty is so simple.

I purchased this CIS off CityInkExpress after having used CIS's off ebay on my previous epson printers.


This is by far the best quality of any of the CIS's i have had!


It was easy to fill and well packaged and also easy to install and works brilliantly!

 

Will definitely be buying more ink from this company when the huge amount in the CIS runs out :)

 

Thanks :)

City Ink Express have been my first choice for ink products for two years now, both in the workplace and at home. I have used ink systems, cartridges and refills from them during this time.


The product range always appears to be bang up to date for the latest printers and the products have always arrived ultra fast and reliably.


If there has ever been a query before or after ordering, then the helpful replies have again been sent very quickly. Replacing the ink is a quick process, but care must always be used. You can then sit back and enjoy the savings from these very reliable products.
