Default Epson Stylus Photo RX500

I already have this printer. Anyone ever use this to print transfers? If so, can I use the standard inks available at any office store? What about using different inks, anything available?

I'm new to doing transfers, and I'm trying to figure out if I need to get a different printer.

After looking at the box for my replacement cartridges that I bought at Office Max, the label says the cartridge will fit these models:

R200, R220, R300, R320, RX340, RX500, RX600 and RX620

Since the cartridge can be used with any of the above printers, is there any reason to believe that I can't use my printer to do transfers? If anyone has any of the above printers, what type of ink have you had success with?

Thanks!

Nah, I'm not a big fan of inkjet transfers.
