It's a failry well known trick of printer manufacturers to sell printers a cost or below, only to inflate the costs of their ink cartridges to boost profits.
Let me explain further.
Espons recent printer releases in the Stylus and Stylus office range have been produced to accept the T1285 and T1295 range of cartidges.
If you compare the these two different ranges of cartridges on capacity, the T1285 series are filled with just 5.9ml ink in the Black cartridge and a shocking 3.5ml of ink in each of the 3 Colours!! You get more in a sample size nail varnish bottle!
The T1295 series are a little better containing 11.2ml Black and 7ml in each of the Colours.
Out of the range of the range of printers which accept these cartridges the cheapest are the Stylus S22 and the Stylus SX125 starting at around £29.99-£39.99. Very tempting... but which cartridges do you think these printers will ONLY take?
Yes, thats right the T1285's!
If you purchased the SX420W, SX425W or the Sylus Office BX305FW there is some good news, as these will accept both T1285's and T1295's
Luckily our epson T1295 compatible cartridges and epson T1285 compatible cartridges are filled with nearly double the amounts of ink compared with the Genuine Epson sets
The table below shows the Epson Printers which accept the T1295 range of cartridges
| Epson Stylus SX620FW | Epson stylus office BX320FW |
| Epson stylus office BX625FWD | Epson stylus office BX305FW |
| Epson stylus SX420W | Epson stylus SX425W |
So next time you think about replacing your printer and the price seems too good to pass up - it probably is! Just make sure you research your cartridges....
