Epson Ink Advantage
Epson ink. Its value is apparent each time you print.
What you save in dollars with third party (or “compatible”) ink cartridges, you could sacrifice in quality and performance. In independent testing, Epson ink cartridges produce superior image quality, longer print life, greater reliability and unbeatable value versus third party ink cartridges. But don’t take our word for it. Industry experts and independent research prove not only that “you get what you pay for,” but with genuine Epson ink cartridges, you get substantially more.
For prints as vivid as your memories
Epson ink cartridges are engineered to deliver stable, long-lasting, photographic quality. A recent PC World magazine article said, "We encountered third-party inks that produced poor quality prints." The article showed that none of the third party ink cartridges tested were able to deliver the consistent quality of Epson ink cartridges for photo printing.
For brilliant prints that last and last.
Permanence, or how long a displayed print will last before noticeable fading, is where third party ink cartridges really pale in comparison to Epson ink cartridges. In a recent study, Henry Wilhelm, a leading authority on photo longevity, projected Epson inks to last for up to 92 years¹, while third party inks printed on the same paper were projected to last no more than a year.
Because the value of time is priceless

More prints per cartridge.
Torrey Pines Research stated that Epson ink cartridges "consistently outperformed third party ink brands" when it comes to the number of prints per cartridge. In fact, the study showed that the Epson ink cartridges produce up to 114 more pages per black ink cartridge and 19 more pages per color cartridge.³ The number of pages printed using Epson ink cartridges is up to 30% more than the third party ink cartridges. Bottom line - more prints, more value.
