They are readily available, easy to insert, prevent irritating messages - like "the cartridge you are using is not a genuine Epson T0453 - do you wish to continue using it ?", and always work well.

How I wish printer manufacturers would make us pay a decent price for the printers themselves, and then provide good quality cartridges which could be refilled with proper Epson ink at a reasonable cost.!
My last comment is that the Epson cartridges, by not being easily re-usuable, are contributing to a lot of needless waste.
So the product is good - the price is high and the waste, well its a waste.!
DURABrite inks make exceptional printing performance a reality in all your day-to-day uses. They provide vivid, accurate colors and laser-quality text combined with water-proof, smudge-proof and fade-resistant printing, even on plain and recycled paper.
