Yes, that is the stuff. Same that I ordered and use in my WF7210.

Most people seem to think that JPSS is the best available for white/light cotton, and I agree.

For dark shirts ... all have (what I consider) serious drawbacks for most uses. I'm told that 3g has better hand (still not great) but is less durable, and Opaque II is more durable but even heavier of hand. Pick your poison.

I have no specific recommendation as to where to buy the paper. I got my JPSS from some random eBay store.

See the Cobra site. There is a form to submit where you say what ink you got, what printer you have, etc, and they email you the profiles. You need to use the same email address you used when you ordered the ink.

should i just wait for the ink n carts and not even play with the oem ink..printer will be here a day before the ink n jpss..i want to play!!
Ha! :)
Well, sort of a waste of the OEM ink carts to use them for day and then pull them out. I sold mine, unopened, on eBay.

Red grid paper colors are slightly better in our experience with it.
But the hand is not quite as nice as JPSS.
We use both for various substrates/uses.
Maybe if I have time this week I can do a side by side comparison of them.

I would recommend JPSS for 95% of jobs.
