Thinking outside the box: very cool simple idea from epson

while in the store looking for lcd monitors a friend pointed out something very cool epson just started doing..
you know how you normally have to try to match up your printer model with the ink it takes, so you are always trying to remember your exact model and then find it listed on ink packages.

well what epson has started doing is using some distinctive pictures, that are on your printer and on ink packages that are compatible with is.

so one model has a guitar, another has a tropical fish, etc.

very clever because your mind can remember those a lot better than model numbers and its much easier to spot on a package.

very simple, very clever.
it's the first time ive seen it on printer ink, but i'll bet the idea has been used in other markets for matching up products with compatible accessories..

That's clever :up:. Remembers me to the O'Reilly books.

What's about the Epson driver/print dialog. Are the as feature rich as the Canon one we talked about last days?

mouser:
good question - i wonder if any site has done a review of printer drivers..

Nice! :D I didn't know there was such thing! I'd love to have those for my clothes. Usually, my method for choosing my clothes is just picking up the t-shirt and the pants that are on the top of the pile!
