Epson continuously gets one-star reviews for a reason. They've built their business model on deception. These cartridges may print twenty five pages, they may print fifty. It's hard to tell. One thing is for sure though: you will not be able to use all the ink in these cartridges due to the way they are designed.

As is widely known, these cartridges have a chip, which supposedly detects how full they are so that the software can notify you to buy new cartridges. So what's wrong with that, you wonder? Well here's the catch. In fact, there are two catches. First, when one cartridge runs out, even if it's only the yellow one, the printer will not print anything--even black and white--until the supposedly empty cartridge is replaced with a new one.

I say "supposedly empty" because of the second catch: the cartridges detected as empty, in fact, still have ink in them! Sometimes plenty of ink. After buying a new set of cartridges when the old set was "supposedly empty", I did a side by side comparison. When I shook the blue, red, and yellow ink of my last set of "empty" cartridges (the black the only empty one), they felt and sounded as full as those of the new, full set! Yet they could not be used again because when I tried to reinstall them the printer continued to read them as "empty" even when used in conjunction with the new black cartridge. If this is not a business scheme built on deception (or incompetence), I don't know what is.

Two years and seven or eight sets of ink cartridges later, I have finally resolved to join the thousands of former Epson customers who have chosen to boycott Epson products, and unless you like how it feels to be hornswaggled and bereft of good, hard-earned cash, I suggest you do the same.

The seller was upfront about the ink being past the expiration date at which it should be sold. For the price, it seemed worth trying ... after all, it's ink, not an antibiotic. The ink came packaged in its original heavy plastic shrink wrap and inside the original box. I've been using it, and it works just fine and the colors are just fine. This is my second set of ink I've purchased from this seller and if it's available, I'll order again.

The picture for this item shows four seperate retail boxes, one for each ink color. What I received was a single Epson retail package with all four ink cartridges. This in itself is not big deal, as it was original Epson retail packaging that I have bought before. However, upon opening the package I found only one of the four cartridges was enclosed in the cellophane pouch that Epson ships them in, the other three were not. Also strange was instead of the normal interior of the packaging, the four cartirdges were loose and a wadded up piece of newspaper was inserted to keep the cartridges from rattling around too much in the unopened package. After viewing the packaging I was concerned about what I actually received. I did choose to install the ink cartridges in my printer in spite of my initial misgivings, and I have not noticed anything unusual in their performance.

If I could give this product 0 stars I would. I have ordered Genuine Epson ink cartridges before and never have I experienced what is going on with my printer after installing this product. The black ink is so faint and is indicating 1/2 empty after much fewer copies than I've been able to get before. The price was less than usual, and now I see why. I do not believe these are Genuine Epson cartridges. Very poor quality and very little life use.
