It certainly lowers ink costs. But in every case the devices were finicky. Many times I felt that I should have bought a pro level printer with more ink capacity. When you add up the cost of the CFS, the time and effort to get things set up, and the long term hassles of dealing with modified systems, it may be cheaper in the long run to buy a better (I.e. higher ink capacity) printer up front. Nothing makes printing seem like hard work more than a printing system that's....well, hard work! If I want frustration and effort, I'll work in my darkroom :-) The nice thing about good printers is they don't become outdated as quickly as digital cameras.
