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.

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.

I would like to say how pleased I am with my city ink CISS ink system. This is the second one that I have purchased as due to a house move my last printer died.

 

Your system was the obvious choice for my new printer. This is the first ink fill up since I purchased the system 18 months ago.

 

Good results and good colour for the price. Much cheaper than original ink.

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.

This is the second CISS I've purchased from City Express and I'm very happy with both the product and customer service. Don't worry if you're unfamiliar with CISS, CityInk have provided helpful step-by-step videos for each system, available on Youtube.

 

I use the pigment inks, which are vibrant and hard wearing, perfect for my T-shirt designs. Don't be fooled into thinking you need to buy your printer manufacturers official cartridges, they say you need them simply because they want your money!

 

All of the major companies have reduced the ink capacity of there cartridges by up to half, cut one open and you'll see that a good portion of your money is spent on fresh air. I refuse to be ripped off, that is why I use CityInk Express.   

 

 

Have Just placed ANOTHER ORDER with C-I-E ! We Have been using a CISS Originally Bought for an Epson PX720 for about 18 Months now.


After the PX720 Expired from Over Use, we replaced it with the PX730 and after a quick call to the Guys at C-I-E we ordered a new chip and some spare filters for just a few Quid.
We didn't have to replace anything else and were up and running in about 10min!

 

Having now expanded our Printing to A3+ with the Epson R3000 , we are now trying out the FotoRite Pigment Based Inks , as we have always had such great results with the Dye Based version on our other printers. And with a Full Set (900ml) being over £100 Cheaper than Original Cartridges (234ml), We can pass great savings on to our customers and still make a healthy margin.

 

If You are undecided about CISS System's, JUST DO IT! For The Tiny Bit of SetUp Time, The Rewards are FANTASTIC. Last Year we saved over £500, This Year We can now expect to save £1000+

 

Even if you are just a casual home user you will make great savings. And if you use it for Business, you'll be laughing all the way to the bank!

 

Oh and By The Way....... I Started Writing this e-mail 10 Mins after ordering.... just had my Shipping Conformation !

 

Great CISS System,
Great Ink's,
Great Customer Service,
Great Shipping & Delivery

Hi C.I.E.

 

Would just like to say, anyone thinking about buying one of these continuous ink systems, do it!

 

We have used one for our old Epson printer for about 3-4 years now, our printer works hard and it must have saved us an absolute fortune. We have just bought a latest model Epson printer but I can say I would never buy another printer without buying a continuous ink system at the same time.

 

I am installing the system today but loved the old one that much that I will continue using it and will find some desk space for another machine in case we want to print at the same time. Well done city ink and keep up the good work.


 
P.S.Your youtube videos are really helpful too!
 
Regards

I have now purchased 3 printer & CISS bundles from City Ink Express, 2 Brother printers and one Epson. They have all been straightforward to set up, one of the Brothers came with ink in the CISS system, all I had to do was fit the air filters and slot the cartridges in. The second brother I had to fill the ink and then prime the cartridges but this was easy with the aid of the video on the City Ink Express Youtube channel – I would recommend you watch the relevant video before setting up your printer. Both the Brothers have a separate ink tank, but it doesn’t take up much space.

 

The last printer was an Epson with refillable cartridges which I haven’t done yet, but it’s just a case of filling them using the syringes supplied and removing the air plugs. This a great option if you don’t want a separate tank with tubes.

This is our 4th order from City Ink Express. We have purchased 2 CISS from them; one for each of our Epson Printers and have saved a fortune.  We are a professional garment printers offering print, embroidery and screen printing.


I was always sceptical about non-genuine cartridges but when we calculated our costs on Originals compared to the CISS I thought we should give it a go as it was only the same price as two sets of cartridges which would only last us about a week. I have been thoroughly impressed and only wish that we had done this a few years ago when we first started out.

 

The print quality is excellent and the inks are very wash resistant on both light and dark garments. We print about 250 garments per week with our CISS’s, and we are often up to 80% coverage. We have thousands of satisfied customers, and we are happy to pass our savings onto them making us much more competitive in a very saturated market.


We are also helping the environment by not producing 30-40 empty cartridges per month too.


Very glad we found you…
