"DON'T BE DISAPPONTED BY POOR QUALITY CISS UNITS" They can produce inconsistant print results, require constant head cleaning and in generally use poor quality ink which can lead to print head damage.

What is a CISS and how does it work?
The CISS (Continuous Ink Supply System) can provide significant cost saving to home inkjet printing. Quite simply it provides a continuous supply of ink to the printer. The system is complete with its' own cartridges and pre-filled ink reservoirs. Our custom cartridge draws the required amount of ink from the reservoirs as needed.  If you use the 100mls of ink in the reservoirs, you simply refill it over and over again using our refill ink
How long it take to install the unit?
It will take less than 5 mins to install and print out the first page. Comprehensive Instructions are provided in the box.
How much will I save by using a CISS?
SAVE 94% of the cost of OEM cartridges	That depends how much you print. Obviously, the more you print the more you will be saving. Consider it this way, the HP cartridges that came with your printer contain 28mls of ink in the colour cartridges, and 69mls of ink in the black cartridge. The HP11 colour cartridges retail for around $59.98 and the black cartridge HP10 retails for around $94.77 (prices correct as of July 2007 via officeworks online). So this equates to $275 for one set of cartridges whch contain 153mls of ink = $1.80 per 1ml of ink. RIHAC compatible refill inks for the HP 10 Black pigment based ink is $19 per 100mls = 19c per ml, and HP11 colour dye base inks are $13 per 100mls = 13c per ml, so around a 94% saving. in our smallest set of replacement inks (100ml of each colour x 4, total cost $52 for 400mls of ink), there is approximately 1.5 black and 10.7 colour cartridges of ink . To buy the same amount of cartridges would cost you $803. A saving of 94% over OEM cartridges
How do your inks compare to HP?
We use high grade UV dye and pigment base inks manufactured from USA, Germany and Japan. These inks are manufactured under contract for us according to our requirements and specifications. These ARE NOT GENERIC INKS.  The print quality of our CISS are just as good as using inkjet cartridges.  Our ink is micro filtered to 0.2 um to ensure stable and fluent printing and prevent head blockages.  Our premium inks have high end UV absorber components which prolong ink life and durability. This means that printed pictures do not fade at the same rate as standard generic inks.  Using top grade raw materials from USA, Germany and Japan ensures a wide colour gamut and vivid output.  We have invested a great deal of development and money to ensure our quality of CISS units and Inks is as high as possible.  This is our sole business and we specialize in CISS units.  We do not stock low quality cheap CISS units or inks.  We have trialled them while developing our unit and we have found that they are just not reliable.  Please feel free to see our feedback and you will see that all our customers are genuinely happy with our units and after sales service. For legal reasons we must point out that HP spend considerable time and money on R& D of their ink products. It is acknowledged that they manufacture very high grade inks and we do not purport to have the same inks manufactured by them. It must still be remembered that these are compatible inks and are not manufactured nor endorsed by HP. It must also be pointed out that the use of aftermarket cartridges may void your printer warranty.
How do I get refill ink?
	We are currently offering Premium Grade UV inks at $52 per 4 x 100mls refill kit or $13 per 100mls dye and $19 per 100ml Black pigment base.  Our HP compatible replacement ink can also be purchased from selected computer stores.  Our unit is prefilled with premium grade platinum inks specifically profilled for your printer series, If you do not purchase your inks from RIHAC be sure to purchase your refill inks from a reliable source as the quality and colour gamut of your ink is very important.  Poor Ink quality leads to damaged print heads.  Cheap inks tend to use chemical carrier fluids which damage your printer and use excessive alcohol carrier fluids.  Generally these inks are not filtered correctly which causes physical blockages to your print heads which can lead to overheating and permanent print head damage.
Are all Ink Systems the Same?
Absolutely not.  There is a great deal of difference between CISS units available in the market today.  Some are simply imported copies of reasonable CISS units using low grade inks and components.  These tend to be unreliable and require high maintenance as well as not being conducive to long term use . The primary difference between a quality CISS system and a cheap system is inverablty the quality of the inks used.  In our testing we found that units (particularly those imported from Asia) had a tendency to contain ink that has a high alcohol base and universal colour profile.  This leads to tube blockages and can cause damage to the print heads. The cartridge design on other units tend only to have a single head seal or rubber style seal which leak over time.   We have developed our cartridges to ensure ink flow is even and consistent.  We also use a high gauge silicone tubing rather than traditional PVC tubing, which restricts ink flow in colder weather.  This results in poorer quality imaging.  Don't be fooled by cheap imitations.  Basically you get what you pay for. In relation to HP compatible CISS units we have spent the last 12 months developing this unit. There are very few, if any, manufacturers in the world who have developed a stable and reliable unit for the 02 series printers. As outlines the printers can detect when incorrect inks are used and lock out the cartridges.
