I was wondering about the Ar Tainium ink cartridges? Has anyone used these before for the Epson 1280? If so how good is the quality? How many heat transfers can be produced with one set of cartridges? Thanks for your time

Artainium is very good dye sub ink.

I would not suggest purchasing cartridges for the 1280 printer. This printer is very wasteful if using single cartridges. The color cartridge holds 5 colors. Once one color has been depleted, you need to replace the entire cartridge...throwing away possibly half of your total ink (liquid gold) volume.

I would suggest using either refillable cartridges or a bulk system on the 1280.
