Review on πŸ–¨οΈ Epson T048920 Color Combo Pack Standard Capacity: Affordable Cartridge Ink Set by Justin Herman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A real bargain - cheaper than chain stores

If you think this is a low price, you have to understand that the cost of ink is high for any "true" Epson photo printer. I have an RX620, and even a few years old, the photo quality is just superb. It's no secret that Epson costs more than any other home printer, and for good reason - quality. For those who say the ink cartridges aren't full: drain them. You also need to understand that there is another factor that determines usage and that is the paper you are using. I only use Epson photo paper because it really gives the best results. Some types of paper absorb more ink. And if you're using cheap stuff, forget it - you'll waste ink and end up with a bad print. I can easily print over 150 high quality 4x6 photos from a single cartridge. Once you start printing images with predominant colors, you will find that you need to change certain cartridges more frequently. But pricier printers aren't about saving money, they're about getting amazing results out of the box. Previously, these packages were cheaper in every way. All prices have gone up, but the price here is definitely a lot lower than competing stationery chains.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Ribbon
