Review on EPSON T200 DURABrite Ultra Cyan Ink Cartridge - Standard Capacity For Epson Expression And WorkForce Printers by Gordie Johnson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Decent ink if you have no other options

Look, I'm only going to echo what most of the other reviews here say: the quality of the ink is good. The amount of ink you get is laughable. I probably print 40-50 pages on this cartridge before the "low ink" warning comes up. If you run out of one color of ink in your printer, it won't let you print - even if you run out of, say, cyan, and are printing in greyscale - it's not going to let you print until you replace the cyan. I've never seen that in another printer and can only read it as Epson's trick to get you to buy more of their ink. (In fact, I've printed maybe 5 color pages since the last time I replaced my color cartridges.and now have the "low ink" warning for cyan.so I'm stuck buying more of that lest I get locked out of printing altogether.) If I could go back in time, I would buy another printer. Next time I'm in the market for a printer, I sure won't go for an Epson. But since I'm here and stuck, and you likely are too, this ink is fine.just buy a lot of it.

Pros
  • Worry-free handling — smudge, fade and water resistant prints
Cons
  • The cartridge does not provide adequate ink for large printing projects
