Actually, the ink itself is very expensive, an A4 photo will easily
cost over one dollar. Based on the price of P400 consumable provided
by John (can be as low as $1.27), the cost may be even cheaper than
ink. BTW how many of you are willing to print a night scene with ink
jet? I think It easily cost three times more.
