Do you use a model with pigment inks or dye inks? I currently use a pigment based hp inkjet. I thought about switching to ecotank but the pigment refills are comparable to hp pigment cost. I assume the ecotank would get a higher page count from the same cost of ink? The pigment based ecotank models I shopped around were quite a bit more expensive than the entry level dye based models.

I use the cheap Eko tank that doesn't auto feed...wish I had done the auto feed. It just takes a 15 dollar bottle of ink for each color. In 4 years I've used one black bottle and 1/2 the colors.
