Genuine & Compatible Epson 502 Ink Bottle Options
Replace the Complete Colour Set
When several colours are empty, the 4-Pack 502 Genuine (from $88.84) is the simplest way to restock the whole set.
Replace Just One Colour
If only one colour has run dry, there's no need to replace the rest - a single Genuine T502 Cyan ink bottle (from $18.13) lets you replace only the colour that has run out.
Save with Compatible Ink Bottles
Spend less with compatible ink bottles - a single T502 Cyan ink bottle from $9.40 or a 5-pack 502 for $48.33.
Stock Up for Frequent Printing
For frequent printing, a larger pack cuts down on reorders. The 10-Pack 502 Compatible (from $95.65) is the lower-cost way to stock up. Prefer genuine ink? The 8-Pack 502 Genuine (from $175.87) is the official equivalent. The genuine pack qualifies for free delivery.

Pro Tip: Clean bottle filling mechanism alignment
Ensure ink bottle key-lock valves align vertically with the refill port before pressing down. Epson 502 bottles use unique keyways for each colour to prevent accidental cross-contamination, so forcing a bottle into the wrong slot will damage the filling mechanism.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I top off Epson T502 ink reservoirs before they are completely empty?
Yes, you can top off ink levels at any time. Epson EcoTank systems track ink levels visually as well as electronically; topping off before the ink drops below the lowest line prevents air bubbles from entering the printhead lines during heavy print runs.
Why is Epson 502 Black ink formulated differently from the colour inks?
Epson 502 Black ink uses a pigment-based formulation designed for sharp, smudge-resistant text printing, whereas Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow use colour ink formulations engineered for smooth blending and vibrant image printing.
How long can an opened Epson 502 ink bottle be stored?
Once opened, securely re-cap the bottle and store it upright in a cool, dark place. Opened bottles should be used within six months to prevent minor evaporation or ink viscosity changes that could affect print flow.
Is T502 the same as Epson 502 ink?
Yes, T502 and Epson 502 refer to the exact same ink bottle series. "T502" is the manufacturer part prefix used by Epson, while "502" is the shortened series code commonly used on packaging.
