Epson PictureMate cartridge

I own an Epson PictureMate Model B271A.

I am finding it difficult to aquire the replacement ink cartridge for it.

Can anyone please help?

you would be better off posting the ink cartridge numbers, I've checked epsons website and can't even see that model listed.

think about a new printer.....

sorry ... with the greatest respect - sir, think about acquiring a new printer
because the one you currently own is getting long in the tooth and could best be regarded as being over the hill ....

bit like you ;-)

I'd normally recomend something not too expensive ... but I've had my hand bitten (or gummed) once today ... so you are on your own old timer make your own choice

I refer you to my answer regarding the radio. You are no help whatsoever.

Just when I think you might not be so stupid .. you start talking again.

I don't give intentionally bad advice - even to
you.
although just when I think you might not be as stupid as I thought ... you start talking again!

the reason you can't get the cartridges is that
Epson appear to have stopped making them ...
thus
no one is stocking them
the reason shops stopped stocking them is that
no one is buying them - which also happens to be the reason that epson stopped making them (are you following this?)

you have three options ....
1 buy the loose ink kits and fill the cartridge yourself.
2 do without a printer
and finally the one anyone with a grain of sense would plump for
3 Buy a new printer.

option three has more than one merit
a new printer will be cheaper ... give better results on less expensive paper ... using ink that (if you do your homework) will come in individual cartridges and thus reduce your running costs ... and you should be able to buy all this for somewhere around �50 which is probably the price of two cartridges.

and to say ... stop relying on others .. take some initiative and find your own supplier ... you are quick with the sarcasm ... let's see if you are as quick sourcing ink
