re: Ink:
After Kodak lost the lawsuit, I used almost any generic reinking kit
and reloaded my diconix cartridges several times (with no problems).
I haven't used the printer in a lon-n-ng time, but I loved the fact
that it was a LOT more compact than the competition, and had a
built-in document feeder. I haven't been keeping track of printers
recently, but I haven't noticed any other printers with the
combination of small size and features!
