I tried to contact Epson to have heads on oem basis but ... they're japanese
and they act on a quasi-monopoly market.
A friend of mine developed a printer for textile using hp, but he say that
the climb of hp mountain has been very very hard. He got informations about
the heads after 3 year of talking with hp!!!!!!! :-(((((
So Xaar remain the sole provider! ??????
This is the question: is Xaar the unique alternate provider to Epson and
Hp??
