Digital camera reviews of Epson T044120 DURABrite Black Ink Cartridge

Digital camera Review: Get the Larger Capacity Black Ink Cartridge
Summary: 2 Stars

Skip this low-capacity black ink cartridge for the Epson CX6400, and go for the high-capacity cartridge (available at other retailers). Average price is $35.00, but prints almost twice as many pages (800+).

Digital camera Review: I agree. It is a ripoff
Summary: 1 Stars

I have to replace the cartridge for 20-25 pages of printing on a normal print. No photos or dark fonts. C64 is the only printer I have seen that requires a Black Cartdrige replacement way ahead of the Color even though I print lot of color pages. Think twice before you buy this.

Digital camera Review: Ink Cartridges
Summary: 1 Stars

Epson's 3600 is a "nice" 3 in 1 Printer, Scanner, and Copier, but the Ink Cartridges "SUCK"! This is my third and last Epson Printer.

Digital camera Review: Long lasting but clogs
Summary: 3 Stars

I am on my second Epson printer, the first having been clogged using Epson inks. I have done a lot of research, and the issue is complex. First, there are two main types of ink, pigment based and dye based. Epson Durabright inks are pigment based inks. These produce better, longer lasting, and more water proof prints. However, they also clog the printer much more readily than dye based inks. Secondly, if you use your printer infrequently, the pigment inks are even more likely to clog.

So, if you use your printer a lot, and need the highest quality prints, use Durabright. Avoid 3rd party pigment based inks because variations in pigment particle size worsen the clogging potential. However, if you use your printer infrequently, or don't care about long lasting prints, and want to save some money, use 3rd party dye based inks. These are less prone to clog and are way cheaper. Apparently, mixing pigment and dye can be a problem, and there are various methods to online to purge the printer when switching. I've found that just printing a lot after switching is ok.

What, you noticed that ink vendors don't mention which type in their ads? Are you surprised?

Digital camera Review: Original is the Best
Summary: 5 Stars

Use original Epson Brand ink, the heads in the epson printers it's in the printer itself not in the ink cartridge, it dosent worth saving some dollars and ruing the printer.
