Q: 1. Are these ink tanks refillable like the Epson EcoTank printers or are they meant to be replaced like normal inkjet cartridges?

A: The cartridges are not refillable.

Q: 2. What is the average number of pages this will print?

A: Sorry, there is really no sure way to tell. I purchased this for our Plotter in the Engineering Dept. We are still trying to get a handle on how frequently they run through the cartridge. Sometimes they print in only black and other times they are using color. The paper is not always the same size as it is on a roll and cuts when the print is done.

Q: 3. Are all 10 inks archival? If not, under favorable conditions, how long are they designed to last?

Q: 5. As a very rough approximation, how many full color 8x10 pages could be printed with one ink set?

A: This printer hasn't been available yet nor is the ink. The ink tanks have 14.4 ml in each tank which is .4 of a mil more than the ink of its predecessor the Canon Pro 10 14 ml tanks. It all depends on the colors & density of each print, for example: you might use 2 magentas b4 you finish 1 cyan & some prints have lighter backgrounds. Even Canon can't give you an approximate answer & only experience will tell. The print quality of these printers are 'out of this world' so even if prints are a bit pricey it pays off by far.

Q: 9. What is the amount of ink used when replacing an empty ink tank?

A: When you use the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-300 printer for the first time after you install the bundled ink tanks, the printer consumes a small amount of ink in the amount to enable printing by filling the nozzles of the Print Head with ink. For this reason, the number of sheets that can be printed with the first ink tanks is fewer than the succeeding ink tanks, which would not subsequently require filling the print heads. The printing costs described in the brochures or websites are based on the consumption data from not the first ink tank /ink cartridge but the succeeding ink tank /ink cartridge. Ink is sometimes used to maintain the optimal printing quality as well.

Q: 10. is this dye based ink? Or pigment?

A: The ink would be Pigment based for both the colored inks and as well as the black inks.
