I have checked a few websites and noticed that they are out of stock of the 110 ml cartridges that I use for my Epson 7800. Many sites still have the 220ml cartridges. I am wondering if Epson is discontinuing one, or both sizes?
My 7800 still works fine and I don't really want to buy a new printer. If these inks are going to be discontinued does anyone have suggestions and experience with 3-rd party inks or other alternatives such as refilling used Epson ink cartridges (that won't lead to more than the 'typical' clogging, or ruin my printer ! ?)

It's the chip shortage, most likely, I had difficulty in getting a few inks for my P800 recently, and that was blamed on the chip thing, by a consensus on the internet, which, we all know, is always right. They may be prioritizing for more recent ink sets, who knows.

No issue with 220ml (and it's a better deal).
My sources inside Epson America say discontinuing is yet another internet conspiracy theory. ;D

Thanks much for your reply and contacting inside Epson sources ! I can most likely wait out a chip shortage, and purchase the 220ml cartridges.

Dragging up an old thread. Andrew, any update from your sources on this? B&H now shows two P800 inks (VLM and MK) as discontinued.

And that reply somehow answers the question if those inks are being discontinued? NOT!

Answered in June 2022 from data obtained from the source.
No need for another Frans internet conspiracy theory!
You can buy them; end of conspiracy theory.

Will anyone in the know at Epson USA (or elsewhere) in a position to know first take your call Frans? Or answer your questions about this? 😝
Meanwhile back in June 2022

Nothing about ink Frans ;D
