How do ink cartridges work?
Ink cartridges drop ink onto the paper in exactly the right place at extremely high speed during printing. With Epson ink, this is achieved using their electric-current-controlled piezo crystals, rather than the more traditional method of thermal print heads which use heat to generate bubbles that force ink through the nozzles.
With Epson’s piezo crystal technology, crystals are embedded into printer heads and change shape in response to electric currents and the Epson printer ink is pushed onto the paper. Using this technology Epson’s print heads can deliver up to 50,000 extremely accurate droplets each second for quality results in every print.
Epson’s heat-free technology can result in faster printing and time savings. And because there is no heat damage to the printheads they last longer than with thermal printers, which in turn reduces the environmental burden of manufacturing and recycling these additional resources.

Factors which impact how long cartridges last
Try these tips to make your Epson printer ink cartridges last longer:
Individual ink cartridges: Because you won’t usually print equal amounts of each colour, you are likely to run out of different colours at different times. When you next upgrade your printer, be mindful of selecting one that best suits your colour-printing needs.
Individual Epson ink cartridges (one colour per cartridge) will usually result in more vivid colours for your images and will usually be more economical than tri-colour cartridges (one cartridge containing multiple combined inks). Individual inks mean you only need to replace the one cartridge that actually needs replacing, saving you from wasting ink and money.
Size of cartridges: Take note of the volume of Epson printer ink in the cartridges you are purchasing. Larger cartridge volumes will be better value for your money - and better for the environment as your cartridge will last longer.
Cartridge care: Store unused Epson ink cartridges in a cool, dark place. Make sure you store your cartridges on their side to ensure the ink remains in contact with the spongy part of the cartridge wall. And keep a note of their expiry dates to make best use of Epson ink before expiration for attractive prints.
Regularly run a cleaning cycle on your printer to keep your cartridges in good working order, and make sure you run a full cleaning cycle on your printer when you first install your new Epson ink cartridges. This will help prevent your printer nozzles from becoming blocked.

Customer Reviews for Epson Ink Cartridges Purchase
General FAQ
Original Epson ink cartridges offer outstanding print quality for professional photographs and are designed to fit perfectly and work seamlessly with the printer. Compatible cartridges are designed by third party manufacturers to closely resemble and work like genuine cartridges with similar quality and page yield but at a fraction of the cost of genuine ink cartridges.
All Epson ink cartridges come printed with an expiration date before which it must be used. This period can range from 18 to 24 months. Epson also recommends replacing an ink cartridge that has been installed in the printer after 6 months.
Epson printers are designed to alert the user when the cartridge ink levels are low, either through flashing lights or notification depending on the printer model. If there is no alert about low ink levels but it has been more than 6 months since the cartridge was installed or if the print quality declines, it is time to change the ink cartridge.
These printers have tanks that can hold enough ink to last for up to two years of use or equivalent to 20 ink cartridges. As a result, you can save on Epson printer ink and minimise the need to restock your ink.
DURAbrite: Used in the Expression and WorkForce range.
UltraChrome: Used in Epson's professional photo printer range to provide glossy sheen when coupled with the right kind of paper.
