Review #1: Best Deal on Amazon 2005-10-09  I would only use genuine Epson Ink for my 2200 and when Amazon has them on sale with free shipping- it is really a great deal!
Review #2: Hmmm 2005-10-03  Not much to review since those dastardly people at epson put microchips in these things to stop you using anything else... so objective comparison is not possible.
Trying to get predictable color out of the 2200 is a nightmare and the driver simply doesn't work right..hasn't been updated in two years and still doesn't print centered when is asked to. So I guess this item gets a five star review for working as intended although the overall product perfomance is dubious at best.
Review #3: Best printer, best ink cartridges 2004-04-01  I own a Epson Stylus Photo 2200 and finished the original ink cartridges that came with the printer. I was shopping online for replacement and initially thought I could save some money by using compatible ink cartridges. I tried so with cartridges from www.123inkjets.com. Though I order all 7 cartridges, I tried replacing only the Lt. Magenta one first since I still had a little ink in the originals to play with.Initial print outs were ok, however, when I was trying to put the printed photo into a particular tight photo frame, the photo was smeared and magenta related colour came off. I tried with various photos and long drying time but still encountered the same problem. Had to return the cartridges, but I must say www.123inkjets.com had great return service. Perhaps I'll switch my company inkjets to them since we don't print photos. The bottom line is this: If you have a Stylus Photo 2200, go with the original Epson ink cartridges if you value the print outs. Save those "compatible" type cartridges for non-photo printing (which you shouldn't be using the 2200 to do in the first place) or for photos that aren't very important and you don't mind smearing if touched.
Review #4: Not for Epson C-80 printers 2002-10-26  This will not work for the Epson C-80 printer. It will fit but is not the correct cartridge.
Review #5: Not for Epson C-80 printers 2002-10-26  Do not get this one if you have an Epson C-80 printer. This will not work. It fits but it is the wrong item. |
