I don't want to waste more time doing this, but other potential customers should know. Four out of six of these "Compatible Inkjet Cartridges" did not work--at all--in my Epson Stylus Photo R220. After multiple attempts to use one, then the next, and so forth, I finally yielded and went to a local office supply store and bought a set of Epson ink cartridges. Not only did the cheapos from Amazon not work (cyan, light cyan, magenta and yellow...the black DID work...I didn't bother to try light magenta), I wasted nearly half the ink in the genuine Epson cartridges while trying to 'charge' ink from the aforementioned "compatible" cartridges. While my Epson is not old and worn out (actually, it prints quite nicely until an ink cartridge runs dry), I'm going to e-cycle it and get something I can live with. Until a few months ago I had a third-party source for ink for this printer (which worked great), but alas that company appears to have gone out of business. In general, I have had good luck with Amazon, so I tried two different replacement brands sold by Amazon. Both sets were both miserable ripoffs. I'm mad at Epson for producing such an ink hog. And I'm mad at Amazon for selling obviously useless replacements. In all cases, a real Epson cartridge ($$) worked and solved "the problem". But the cost per page is way too much with Epson ink. The Amazon ripoffs are a total waste of money. If you have troubles with the "compatibles" from Amazon, don't think it's your fault!
