Epson is running the market hard with their EcoTank printer. I've seen one litre bottles for less than โ‚ฌ50.

If not, go for refurbished/refilled cartridges.

I still remember the fun of refilling old HP cartridges for a dime a dozen.

Those ink tank printers are their own kind of scam though, they clog if you dont use them frequently enough, and they use a non-replaceable dump pad when cleaning and purging that effectively bricks the printers when it is considred full, which is usually just a timer, not an actual sensor.
