This is the ticket!!
I use the ink on a regular basis, I print dozens of photos a day from my R1800, has as good a color snap as the epson inks, slightly pricey for the equipment , though not paying for the dozens of single ink cartridges, you will ask "why did I not do this earlier",, if you do not use your printer on a daily basis you need to run the nozzle cleaner utility on a daily routine.

Highly recomended !
I would recommend this system to everyone that owns an Epson R1800, some tweaking of the hose placement is required, no big deal.The center bracket will prevent the printer lid from fully closing is the only thing the manufacturer should redesign, again not a big issue.Works perfectly and saves $.

Terrible Product! Killed my Printer
I was really excited about this product initially. A low-cost ink solution to the R1800 is well needed. Unfortunately it never really panned out...and now my printer is shot! To their credit, Mediastreet support did everything possible to help get this thing to work. We probably exchanged more than 25 emails. In the end, I sent my system back and they sent me an older one that had been working on one of their printers. That one was no better. In fact, I couldn't even get that one to recognize the cartridges. And now my printer is having a terrible time even with Epson cartidges. I know these systems have worked for some, but for me it was a complete BUST!

Niagara V for the Epson R1800
I had to tweak the anchors for the ink hoses on the center bracket. The anchored hoses were not vertically parallel to the hoses running to the cartridges causing twisting as the cartridges moved to the left end of travel instead of laying over each other. Suggest having some double sided tape and a razor blade handy when you install so you can move the anchors.
Also took more then the recommended 3 cleanings to purge the air out of the lines. More like 6 or 7. But that is ok. Once setup, no more cartridge replacements!
Will write more as the ink settles down and I get to make some prints.
