It's perfect for the Epson printer it's designed for. I don't think this ink requires any comments. It's genuine from Epson, period. I don't have a problem using third-party inks on my cheap everyday printers. But for professional quality jobs on a pretty expensive (at least when we bought it a few years ago) Epson Photo R1800 -- genuine ink is the only way to go.
If you make sure you are buying the ink from Amazon and not a partner, this is the best pricing you will find as your freight will be free, using SuperSaver.
My question is to you. Why would someone purchase an Epson R1800 Photo Printer and then use third party ink in it. People often ask if my photos are professionally printed. My answer is yes, I print them at home.
It is important to me that my prints are of high quality, so I don't attempt to use the cheaper compatible ink cartridges. When it comes to ink for my R1800 photo printer, I am concerned with the quality of the images I print. The Epson black UltraChrome Hi-Gloss ink cartridge provides superior resistance to water, fading and smudging. The color can be duplicated, but all inks are not created equal. Third party options may produce a good print initially, but may not hold up or last as long.PROS:Provides superior resistance to water, fading and smudgingCONS:Price
If you own the EPSON Stylus Photo R1800, this is the ink for you.
