Everything seems fine.

I have used several reputable websites to replace ink for my EPSON WF-4730. EPSON keeps releasing new firmware updates that break some of the remanufactured inks I've previously purchased. I would advise anyone who buys remanufactured ink not to update their printer's firmware as the ink may become undetectable by the printer at any time. Evidently EPSON is doing this on purpose so you need to buy their ink. Everything works fine with this particular ink. There were no problems recognizing cartridges, the print quality is good. I do not print high quality images or anything, so I cannot confirm if these inks are suitable for this type of use. The print quality seems to be good. All were filled during installation. (I hadn't even filled EPSON ink to the full.) The only thing I don't know is the true quality of the "XL" ink and if it really lasts as long as the others. I was able to purchase this set for less than half the cost of the EPSON XL brand equivalent. I think that while it doesn't quite match the speed of an "XL" cartridge, it's still good value for money. The main thing I would be concerned about is that running a printer firmware update will render the cartridges unusable. My advice to anyone buying remanufactured ink is to go into the printer settings first and turn off firmware updates. This way you can be sure that you will not be stuck with ink cartridges that are not recognized.

Pros
  • Not only useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Somewhat serviceable
