1 Great Ink Cartridge
I am very pleased with Epson ink cartridges for my 1280 printer. Have purshed over a dozen at amazon without any problems so far. The only thing I dont like is that the Black cartridge is too small, I use a lot of black ink, would like a bigger cartrdige.
2 1 defective 2 perfect
I purchased 3 Black Epson T007201 Inkjet Printer Cartridges through Amazon.com in January -- best price I've seen. The first worked perfectly. The second failed to work at all and my printer kept telling me that my ink cartridge was empty or not an epson ink cartridge. After powering off and on my printer, deleting it, reinstalling it, and restarting my system several times, I finally gave up and opened and installed the 3rd new cartridge. It worked perfectly. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get a replacement for the defective cartridge and I'm not having any success even finding a way to contact amazon about the problem. I'm hoping they respond to this review. If they stand behind the defective cartridge and send me a replacement, they get a 5 star review. Otherwise it goes to zero. Two out three means that my $18.94 cartridge (plus shipping) really cost me almost $30 each. For less than that, I can run down to Office Max and get it instantly - and return it instantly if it's defective.
3 Very Unhappy With Your Product
I order two ink cartridges from your company recently for my Epson Sytlus Photo 820 (Black and Color). Neither one of them have been worth the money spent. They do not provide ink. I purchase alot of ink for my printer and was hoping to find a suppler to fulfill my needs but your product flunked big time.
4 Cheaper at [Amazon.com]
My Stylus Photo 1280 prints beautifully, the Epson inks are obviously perfect for it...The interesting point is, the [Amazon.com] price is cheaper than Office Depot. Order the ink from [Amazon.com] when you are ordering something else and there are no shipping charges, so it is a great savings.
5 Stick with EPSON CARTS!
Stay with Epson.
My 1270 prints like a dream, try the Epson matte
papers for you artwork!
I will not change to other inks as I am
so pleased with my work using Epson inks!
6 Very pleased...
Very pleased with the cartidge and printer (Epson 1270). Quality is almost as good as my laser printer... (but I use it mostly for color printing).
7 Photo quality
I print mostly color photos with my Epson 890 (which I love!!) I've noticed that you can watch the color ink cartridge level drop as you print, but the black and white cartridge keeps on kicking. The quality of photos you get with the printer makes the price of the ink cartridges well worth the price (especially on Amazon[.com]).
8 Fine print
This ink is perfectly fine; I just think the pricing is exploitative. I've already spent more on ink than I paid for the Epson printer. (And why is it that the black cartridge costs more than the one with 5 colors?)
9 Your only choice
If you have an Epson printer, you pretty much have no choice but to buy their ink. (In fact, this goes any with manufacturer.) I strongly recommend against using any third-party ink cartridges, as I have had nothing but bad experience with them in the past.
This ink cartridge gives you what you expect: never enough pages for what you pay! Fortunately Amazon gives us a very good price, so we can afford to buy just a few more per year.

Very good price over coputer store prices. Identical to the original you would buy anywhere. Will order here now
11 Prefer OEM over Generic
Epson cartridges are my preference over the cheaper generic cartridges. Since I am partial to Epson Printer, I have owned only Epson, and experimented with generic cartridges which although they perform admirably, the difference is seen in high quality photos. While using the highest print settings generic cartridges produce some hues that strongly effect photos of people, facial tones are uneven. This makes you look like a bad photograher to the unknowledgable. With the Epson cartridges this problem does not exist, so if that happens while using OEM clean you printer nozzles, and make sure you have an ample ink supply by checking your printer properties... you may be low on one or more colors. And yes BLACK is a key component in photo printing.
12 Quality is worth the price.
This is a shout out to anyone buying cartridges for a printer that is worth something to them. If you want to prolong the life of your printer, I wouldn't risk getting the low-quality cartridges or refills that you can get on ebay. I only get the genuine cartridges for a reason- I know that when I'm printing photo quality prints on quality paper, I don't have to worry about anything going funky.
You get when you pay for, and in this case, it's peace of mind.
13 T007201
Works great in Epson 1270 photo, approximately 1 black cartridge to 2 color ones. Photo and print quality is great! Prices are more reasonable than the ones for my HP.
