On the one hand, the Dura-Brite formula produces printouts that are resistant to the sort of smearing that ink jet output in known for. On the other hand, this same formula may be what has forced me -- and many others, according to the reviews I've read -- to trash the C84 ink jet printer. Many people, myself included, have found that said printer suddenly stops working because of clogs that can't be unclogged, and one widely accepted theory is that this ink has dried to such an ultra-hard consistency that it has gummed up the works beyond all repair. So if you have an Epson ink jet printer that's still working, just be very careful to follow all recommended precautions to keep it working -- and keep your fingers crossed. If you're trying to decide on a printer, I can't recommend Epson and this Dura-Brite ink.

I've used this in my CX6400 printer for about the past three weeks now. I've copied numerous papers and printed many internet pages. So far, it's about 1/3 of the way through. If there is something like it doesn't use the last 10% of its cartridge ink, I'll keep you posted. Otherwise, if you got a printer that goes with this cartrige, you best buy it here because it has it for $5 cheaper than any other site aight.

I never use any ink other than Epson brand but the ink never goes on sale. Usually you can almost buy a new printer with ink cheaper than new ink cartridges. This is a great price for Epson brand, high capacity, black cartridges. Almost $10 cheaper than anywhere else. I price compare a lot. Shipping was very fast and free.

Epson has good printers but they seem to last for about 2 years & break down when installing a new ink cartridge. The C86 printer is the third Epson printer I have experienced replacing the ink cartridge with the printer failing to work any longer leaving me with an unused ink cartridge. This is my 3rd Epson printer for which this has happened. It is hard to imagine that this could be Epson's strategy. When the printer works with the ink, the ink & printer are good.

Nothing beats the origianl Epson Ink. I got cheap and decided to buy some of those aftermarket inks and it messed up my printer fortunately, epson fixed it and now I am back to using the original ink and couldn't be any happier.

Best Bargin I Can Find!!!!! High quality ink cartridge, fast shipping, and at the lowest overall price! This is the only place where I will purchase my ink cartridges.

this larger size cartridge lasts a lot longer than the thin varieties.. quality is great.. no problems at all! Price is good also.. I always get the actual epson ink as all the times I have tried "epson compatible" cartridges, the printing quality suffers..

I am pleased with the Epson factory branded original Dura-Bright ink cartridges. I'm not pleased with the price Epson charges for their cartridges, but... let me say that I have two printers, the C86 and a CX6600. On previous printers {not these two} I tried shortcuts to save money on ink costs. I tried refilling my own cartridges, which ended up costing a lot of time and money to accomplish, and was only marginally successful. I also tried buying recycled and non-branded cartridges. They never seemed to work in my printers very long without some sort of printing problems. Over the years, I probably tossed out ten reams of printing failures due to inkjet cartridge failures because of these feeble attempts to save money. Finally, I decided to just close my eyes, use the factory inks and pay the price. I have not had a single printing failure since. Not even one failure in two years. I'm convinced that in my case, the factory inks are the best answer to trouble free printing. Also, the Dura-Bright inks seem to work the best on my glossy paper.

Replacement inks are very expensive and only last a short time. The high capacity replacement cartridge is very reasonably priced, lasts much longer and shipping is free! I no longer buy my ink at BM shops. Amazon is great, no tax no hassle. My only gripe is how long it took to arrive at my door step, but then again, shipping was free.

Very pleased with the high capacity cartridge with my Epson Stylus CX6600. "Compatibles" do not compare.
