Stock Up for Frequent Printing

Printing at higher volumes? A larger pack means fewer reorders - the 10-Pack 702XL Compatible (from $163.60) provides a lower-cost compatible alternative for frequent printing, while the 8-Pack 702XL Genuine (from $370.55) is the equivalent option if you'd rather stick with official ink.

Expected page output and replacement cycles

Standard Epson 702 cartridges yield 350 black and 300 colour pages, whereas 702XL cartridges yield 1,100 black and 950 colour pages. Yields are measured according to ISO/IEC 24711 standard testing under 5% page coverage. High-yield XL cartridges significantly reduce cartridge swaps during heavier print runs.

Choosing between genuine and compatible cartridges

Compatible 702XL cartridges offer a practical option to lower your printing costs while maintaining sharp document clarity. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Read our blog comparison guide to learn more about how compatible and OEM options compare.

Best way to stock these cartridges

If you print mainly text documents, purchasing high-yield 702XL black cartridges provides the most efficient balance of yield and replacement frequency. If you print colour graphics, multi-cartridge bundles ensure all four slots remain stocked to avoid unexpected print stoppages. Compatible options come backed by a money-back guarantee under our returns policy if they do not perform as expected. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99. All orders ship directly from local warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Explore our full range of Epson ink cartridges for all model series.

Pro Tip

Epson WorkForce Pro printers use DURABrite Ultra pigment inks across all four channels. Even if you only print black text, the printer still uses small amounts of colour ink during routine nozzle cleaning. Replacing colour cartridges promptly when prompted prevents printhead nozzles from drying out and locking up text print jobs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I mix standard Epson 702 and high-yield 702XL cartridges in the same printer?

Yes, standard 702 and high-yield 702XL cartridges share identical external physical dimensions. You can install an XL black cartridge alongside standard colour cartridges without issues.

Will my printer run black text printing if a colour 702 cartridge is completely empty?

No, Epson WorkForce Pro printers require all four cartridge slots (Black, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) to contain usable ink. The printer halts operation to prevent thermal damage to the printhead firing elements.

Why do colour 702 cartridges deplete even when printing monochrome text?

WorkForce printers perform automatic maintenance cycles that flush small droplets of colour ink through the printhead to maintain nozzle readiness and prevent pigment drying.

Is 702XL the same as 702 XL?

Yes, 702XL and 702 XL refer to the exact same high-yield Epson ink cartridge series; the space is simply a formatting variation used by different retailers.
