These are the empty black and color carts.
Also, order the chip resetter. I don't have the part number. It's somewhere on their website, along with their phone number.
I never ordered the refill "kit". You may want to. I don't believe you need it.
Other than syringes, you'll be good to go.

Thanks for the update. I haven't used the spongeless, refillable carts, although I've seen them in action.
No bad reports from the people I know who use them.

At last weekend's Coast Graphic Supply Learning Center, I found that even though the Epson 4000 is being replaced by the 4800, there are aspects of the 4000 that make it more desireable than a 4800.
Has to do with some of the desireable functionality of the 4000 that has been eliminated in the 4800.

Yes, I've seen where the 4800 can be used for dye sub and other cartridges are brought into play for printing transparencies for film positives, used in the silkscreen process, as one example.
I've also seen where Sawgrass uses that printer model for their Chromablast system, where dye sub is one function and another ink formulation is used for printing 100% cotton garments etc.

Is the Epson 4800 the printer model used in the Sawgrass Chromablast method?
Thank you,

Hi David,
Yes, the 4800 is the model that is the dual system. It uses two drivers....one is the Powerdriver for the sublimation side, and the other is the Chromablast driver to use that side. The only thing you have to manually change is the paper. It is a really cool option to allow you to do both technologies with one machine.
The 4000 is not set up to do this.

I've never used a 4800, but I try to pay attention to what's happening with the latest equipment. :-)
Have a good weekend.
