Do you know if the Phaser 8860 and 8650 use the same type of ink mix? I know they're different size, but do they come from the same ink well per say?

[jegaskin]

As far as I know, all the solid ink printers use the same ink blocks, but check with your Xerox reseller to be sure.

@TeslaGenius2 I would never use generic ink in solid ink machines ever. it can easily destroy your ink loader and other components including your printhead. Also, using generic ink kills your Xerox warranty.

[TeslaGenius2]

I'll buy one and try it with generic ink that is bargain really

Too expensive to run , Blocks too many times, Worked great for 2 months. Have to Keep Cleaning Blocked heads, which waists more ink,

Win Win for Xerox . Catch 22

Will not buy another Xerox Printer Again.

Dont forget (how convenient) that you have to leave the printer turned on all the time, and per coverage it costs close to toner and the tech support guys are Asians and you cant understand half of what they say.
