Thanks, will take a look at some when at Home Depot.

FYI:

I talked to the bulk ink folks at:
http://www.misterinkjet.com/c-s-printstation-bulk.htm
and here is some useful info about the bulk ink,
 BCI-3eBK,  BCI-3eC,  BCI-3eM,  BCI-3eY
for the Canon S600:

She said that they are the SAME formula as the
Canon stuff , but would not assure me that they
came from the same OEM as Canon uses.
(Which would have made me feel better :-)

************************************************
4oz bottle of Black BCI-3eBK= 6 refills
(that's 2/3oz per refill, or $9.95/4oz*2/3= $1.66
plus shipping, etc. -or- $9.95/6=$1.66 :-)

4oz of the 3 colors BCI-3eC,  BCI-3eM,  BCI-3eY = 12 refills
(that's $9.95/12 = $0.83 per refill, plus shipping, etc.)

So, to make a long story short, you can refill a complete
set of one black & 3 colors (four total refills) for $4.15.
My Fry's Austin receipt shows that I spent a total of
$10.99 + $11.95 + $11.95 + 10.99 = $45.89, before
taxes.  Can you spell exponential?
**************************************************

Now I need a good cheap place to buy high
quality photo paper for the Canon S600 :-)
Please post a URL.

I like my S600 so much, that I may just get another
one.  Is the S800 that much better "when printing
photos"?

Later,
Gene
