Authentic
Style: Ink
The Epson inks are from the manufacturer, not a refill or imposter. I’ve been using these for years. The price is the same as the manufacturer or a local retail but thru Amazon I don’t pay shipping and I get them the next day

Hate the Price, but love the ink.
Style: Ink
I totally hate the price of printer ink, mostly when it dries out when not in constant use, but I purchased generic and my printer would not let me use it and i have avoided the firmware update. So back to buying epson ink. It worked the minute i loaded it into the printer. Epson ink is great. it was great color and quality. Just hate the price tag.
