Cheers.
I owned two epsons and both suffered clogging problems, especially when used with refills.

That combined with their truly awful customer service and tech support means I'm determined never to own another Epson product, ever again.

Fair point though, separate tanks are more economical in the long run. I use Canon these days, they have championed separate tanks for years.
