The Epson 1270 is an old dye printer (circa 1999) that I use only for text
printing and colored directional maps. I use the cheaper non Epson inks
but needed a quick replacement for the color cart and had to buy at a brick and
mortar store locally. I have run non Epson pigments thru one of my two
1270 but the pigments at the time were no match for dye in saturation. The only
other use I can see for a 1270 is if you wanted to run a CIS on it to produce 13
x 19" prints. I have an Epson R-1800 pigment printer for making highly saturated
color prints on glossy paper.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but the non-Epson inks are dye rather than pigment based and prints made from them don't have the longevity. |
