Kodak Kicks Epson in the Print Cartridges with new AIOs

  February 7th, 2007



Kodak has officially kicked Epson, Dell and the other members of the ink cartel in the stones with the introduction of their new printers. The new Kodak printers are noteworthy thanks to the new print cartridges that integrate the print head into the printer rather than the cartridges allows for lower cost ink. If you guys are anything like me you have probably stood in the store before and realized you could buy a new printer for about what ink for your old one costs. Kodak claims that their new ink system will give about twice as many prints for the same cost as competitors. The new line of Kodak all in one printers uses Kodak’s own ink that runs $9.99 for black and $14.99 for color. My Epson RX700 uses six cartridges that each cost more than $14.99 if you can find the damn things. Kodak claims that with their new printers you can produce 4 x 6 color prints for a mere 10 cents each which is significantly less than what it costs to make prints on HP photo printers.
