1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING! Be careful when ordering this print pack!, May 9, 2007

This print pack is not labeled well. It does not say whether it is a T5570, T5570-M, "270", T5846, or T5845-M print pack. They are not cross-compatible.

If you have a PictureMate Pal, Snap, or Flash printer, you should order ONLY the T5846 for 150 glossy prints OR the T5845-M for 100 matte prints.

If the box does not specifically say that it is for PictureMate Series 200 printers (Pal, Snap, and Flash) such as the T5846 or T5845-M packs - DON'T BUY IT! You will end up with the wrong size cartridge. T5570, T5570-M, and "270" cartridges are not compatible with the PictureMate 200 series.

For 150 glossy prints, stick to T5846, such as:

* T5846 ASIN-B000IT4O0A

* T5846 ASIN-B000KJBRK8

* T5846 ASIN-B000JMFVY4

* T5846 ASIN-B000MFJOZU

* T5846 ASIN-B000L9MES6

* T5846 ASIN-B000NZRJFQ

For 100 matte prints, stick to T5845-M, such as:

* T5845-M ASIN-B000IT4O0U

* T5845-M ASIN-B000LDRJS2

* T5845-M ASIN-B000JMHV38

* T5845-M ASIN-B000OCMVLU

The low rating isn't so much a reflection on the product as it is on the product's packaging. The manufacturer, Epson, knows that it has more than one type of Picturemate system on the market and that the cartridges are not compatible across all Picturemate models - yet the packaging does not state anywhere with which models the print pack is or isn't compatible. This oversight could be easily fixed by adding information to the packaging.
