Atlascopy introduces system that makes replacing inkjet cartridges obsolete

A new system that may radically affect the way people use their inkjet printers was announced today by Barry Shultz, President of Atlascopy, Inc., an international distributor of printer products.

The system allows users of many inkjet printers to convert their printers, in about five minutes, to a system that connects the ink cartridges to ink bottles that sit outside the printer. The user just keeps the ink bottles filled and never again needs to replace an ink cartridge.

"The CFS, or Continuous Flow System is not really new", says Mr. Shultz, "it's just now becoming available to the mass consumer market. CFS systems have been available to high volume users for some time but the prices on the conversion kits were very expensive, virtually removing the technology from the consumer market. Now the prices for CFS systems have come in line for the average consumer. It only takes about five minutes to do a full conversion and the cost is about the same as buying two sets of cartridges. The cost savings become obvious since the user never needs to replace cartridges ever again."

The CFS system is rather ingenious. A set of specially retrofitted cartridges are connected to rubber tubing that leads outside of the printer to ink bottles which sit next to the printer. By keeping the ink bottles "topped off" the user never again needs to worry about replacing cartridges. Bulk ink is 90% cheaper than cartridges so the savings to even a casual user can be significant.

Twelve kits have already been introduced at http://atlascopy.com which covers about 37 Epson and Canon printer models. More kits are planned for other models as they hit the market.
