generic ink carts vs epson ink carts

2003-06-12 by Tim Timmermans

I'll try this again. Has anyone tried any of these generic inks?

I am in transition between permanent dwellings and thus have not yet 
set up a CIS but plan to soon. In the meantime I found a place in 
South Carolina called The Ink Warehouse that sells generic inks for 
Epson printers. They have a two cartridge combo (b/w & color) for the 
1280 for $12.95.

Is this too good to be true? Has anyone tried any of these inks and 
are they as good as the Epson brand? Clogging or fading issues?
I'm wondering if, like generic advils, and cough medicines etc that a 
generic ink could be just as good as the brand name. If so has anyone 
tried the ones from this company or is there another company that you 
would recommend?

Thanks, Tim
