Any good Epson inkjjet printer?

The 'gasket' is the seal that is formed between the head surface and the
cleaning station edge, which is a rubberized material. The small pieces
of absorbent material which you refer to are just there to help direct
some of the spare ink that ends up on the head area.

I loved Epson color printers. They print beautiful pictures. I had been
using Epson printers for many years in the past. Because of frequent
cloggings, I switched to Canon inkjet printers (i950 and S520). But I am
not so happy with color on the prints with i950. Too much red on skin
color.

Perhaps try experimenting with color profiles?

What I find odd is saying you buy 3rd party ink for x printer and then
saying it's cheaper than other brand printers. Why not compare apples
to apples?

Looks like to me their T048x20 is $8 black, $7 color, where the
BCI-3ebk is $5 and the BCI-6 are $5.00 each for cmyk. I haven't found
referbed HP carts on the site you listed. But the $16 for the jet
mailer looks like a decent deal for the #95, #96, #97. But needless to
say I know the "cannun" carts are larger, therefor cheeper from the
same website. The Epson T048x20s are much more complex then the canon,
and if i'm not mistaken require to be filled via creating a vacuum from
a port next to the main outlet port and having the ink sucked back in,
then resealed. The canon BCI-3 and 6 can be poked with needle and
sealed with a hotglue gun. Assuming the cost of ink isn't the issue
there is a good reason the epsons are more spendy to by referbs from
the same place.

Great, feel free. No one is stopping you. In fact I didn't debate on
the quality of 3rd party ink.

Great! I'm sure I'd love my Epson equaly on 3rd party ink.

Apples an oranges, this was the only point I was trying to make. You
were saying that the Epson 3rd party ink was cheaper than "cannun",
which would be true if you were talking OEM. But this is not a fair
contest as OEM costs thousands of dollars a gallon regardless of the
make. But from the same site, the Canon ink was clearly cheaper.
Many good reasons to use an Epsons, but price doesn't seem to be one of
them.
