Though they don't specifically mention your cartridges, you might try to get hold of Jet Tec who seem to have quite a wide variety of things available. Perhaps they just haven't updated their site yet...

r2rich,

Are you really (2rich that is)? Anyway, just a word of caution about 3rd party ink cartridges. I worked for 10 years in the major R&D division of a major inkjet company, so I speak from a perspective of some experience in this area. For most printers (all as far as I know) your warranty doesn't cover use of 3rd party inks. It may be hard to find profiles for use with those inks. Also, you may have problems of clogging and degradation of fade resistance. And, there are 3rd party ink suppliers that violate reputable companies' patents. Let the buyer beware!

Jet Tec is one of the better after market ink and compatible cartridge manufacturers. They make every effort to avoid patent infringement issues and their inks are tested for archivability and to aviod printhead clogging.
If you live in the US an oem can not void your warrantee for using third party supplies. The oem must prove that a non-oem supply caused the problem that they are attempting to decline warrantee service for. This is a matter of judicial record and not a personal opinion.
Printhead clogging problems usually arise when consumers use multiple brands of after market inks or inexpensive( read as universal inks) compatibles. If you insist on trying several brands of non-oem inks purchase a head cleaning cartridge to flush the system before installing each brand. This will help to avoid clogging problems. Some brands of non-oem, low cost compatibles may still clog the printhead, due to use of the wrong chemicals (humectants, surfactants, ect) in making the ink formulation. If this happens re-install the head cleaning cartridge an attempt to un-clog the printhead. Best to avoid the low cost ones and use those from Jec Tec/DCI or NCR branded compatibles.

Franz, US Federal Trade Commission ruled more than 5 years ago that printer manufacturers could not tie their warranties to use of OEM inks: an illegal tie-in. Since then, they have shortened the warranties and elimnated the requirement for OEM inks.

Glenn,

I was not aware of this FTC ruling. The fact remains that using third-party inks increases the risk of clogging, premature fading and unpredictable results. Let the buyer beware.

Alchemist,

Inasmuch as this thread is now involving also Canon printers, and possibly others like HP as well, being you are knowledgeable about what is involved in ink technology you should maybe also discuss printhead design, which differs quite radically between manufacturers and has a functional relationship to what kind of ink (constituents) that can affect performance differently between say Epson's micro-piezo head and Canon's BubbleJet. All types of ink and all inkjet head designs are not always compatible as I understand, so 'one-size' does not fit all so to speak.
