Tanks for the Memory

Strengths: High-quailty product built by manufacturer maintains product warranty. You are ready when you run dry.

Weakness: You pay for the full set of tanks upfront vice waiting for an separate tank to run out. Refill kits are cheaper but may not produce the same vivid prints. May be harder to find this product.

Epson Stylus Photo R200 Inkjet printer ink. Using the product is easy. Just follow the installation directions when the replace ink now message is displayed in the print monitoring software supplied with the printer. If you replace the tanks at the low ink warning, you discard the remaining ink, losing a considerable amount of product. This multi-pack ensures you have it on hand when you run completely out. The bonus is the price is considerably cheaper than if individually purchased.

EPSON T048920 5 Ink Tank Multipack

Strengths: Very good, distinct and vibrant colors.

Weakness: Nothing on the technical end. Just pricy!

The ink are very easy to install in the printer. When they print on a CD or DVD face, the colors are very vibrant and clean. The ink lasts quite a long time too. They are just too pricy when you need to replace them. But overall, the ink is great on Epson printers!

Epson T048920 Ink tank Multipack

Strengths: I like the idea of purchasing in a multipack since the cartridges can be expensive. Prints in true colors.

Weakness: When I print in black only, the other colors are also being used, which becomes costly, since I have to purchase more color cartridges even if I'm not printing in color.

I prefer using these cartridges rather then the generic because the colors are more brilliant. I would like to purchase a multipack that also includes the black cartfridge so as to lower the cost.

Inka-dinka-do...EPSON T048920 5 Ink Tank Multipack

Strengths: Great bright color. It prints nice photos.

Weakness: $$$-Expensive-$$$

I really like the way this ink prints particularly on Kodak paper. The photos that I've made are bright and clear. Time will tell how long these will last before they fade but for now I'm very impressed.

Convenient color multipack with individually sealed...

Strengths: Convenient multipack, usually cheaper than buying individual cartridges, each cartridge individually sealed, less cardboard packaging for same amount of product = less waste

Weakness: Not suited for those who print heavily unbalanced amounts of any particular color, in other words, this pack is suited for users who run through their ink equally among all colors

This is a convenient way to re-order color cartridges for your Epson printer. Note that it does not include a black cartridge, so you will need to order black separately.

I weighed the empty vs. full cartridges for your reference. It is 1.4 oz full and 1.0 oz empty. You're getting 0.4 oz of ink per cartridge. If think about how much you're paying per oz, then you might seriously start thinking about refilling (if you don't mind a bit of mess).

Nothing beats genuine ink

Strengths: vivid, true colors, clean edges, no smearing

Weakness: Expensive compared to generic ink

Although more expensive than generic ink cartridges or refill kits, this genuine ink pack from Epson is worth every penny, for nothing compares with its vibrant color output. unlike ink refill kits, there's no mess or risk the cheap ink will damage your printer.

Epson Ink Cartridge Pack

Strengths: Great price and quality...$18.00 cheaper than popular member warehouse companies.

Weakness: none

I do not think that buying the whole pack is a weakness..It allows you to print until you use up to the last drop in you reserves and until the printer refuses to print further.

Grrreat DEAL!

Strengths: all 5 cartridges in one, and saves some $$$

Weakness: They can run out real quick like any ink cartridge for a photo printer when using them intensely.

I have been using these cartidges and the black ones from Epson to print DVD case inserts and photos. They run out quick but hey, wwhen you are printing around 50 dvd cases or tons of pictures, that is a lot of ink so it happens! And I just wish I could buy a pack with the black in it too, casue well, the blacks run around $15 each adn this pack of 5 for $50 is much more cost effective.
