Epson is a company that recognises the importance of the environment, and so encourages their customers to return used Epson printer ink cartridges, toner ink cartridges and other Epson products for recycling.

You can help save the environment by sending back your used Epson printer ink cartridges including inkjet cartridges and toner cartridges.

Used Epson printer ink cartridges are recycled through a licensed recycling facility which evaluates the components and then shreds the products. After the shredding process, the materials are separated into ferrous, non-ferrous and plastic components and sent to other mills for further processing.

There is a fee for this service which includes shipping and recycling costs. Customers taking advantage of this service will receive a voucher for each item returned. This coupon may be redeemed on your next purchase at the Epson store. Ensure you check the Epson site for any updated details.

These days, there’s a wide range of third party manufacturers who offer ‘compatible’ printer cartridges that will fit different makes and models of printer. The compatibles generally cost considerably less than inkjet cartridges that are made by the OEM (original equipment manufacturer).

OEMs like Epson claim that their inkjet cartridges are made specifically to work with their own printers to precise specifications with high quality parts and supplies. For best results, they say, use Epson inkjet cartridges with an Epson printer.

The third party manufacturers counter that their products are made to exacting standards to fit and work with the printer for which the inkjet cartridge was made. Thus the inkjet cartridge that they create for an Epson inkjet printer will function just as well in that printer as an Epson inkjet cartridge.

Epson supports their claim that their Epson inkjet cartridges are the best choice to use with their printers with a number of studies that tested the print quality, permanence, usability and number of prints per cartridge of their own Epson ink and Epson inkjet cartridges against a number of third party inkjet cartridges.

Specifically, the tests showed that: In an article published in PC World Magazine, Epson ink cartridges consistently delivered higher quality prints than most third party ink cartridges.

In a study by Henry Wilhelm, a leading authority on photograph longevity, photos printed with Epson ink cartridges were projected to last up to 92 years without fading. The best performing third party ink was projected to last a year before colors showed noticeable fading.

In tests conducted by the Torrey Pines Research Center, the ink used in Epson printer cartridges was shown to clog the inkjet nozzles significantly less often than third party inks. In other tests performed by the Torrey Pines Research Center, Epson inkjet cartridges consistently printed more pages per cartridge than third party ink cartridges made for Epson printers.

Other factors are harder to quantify, though. If quality and permanence of your printed pages is important, it could well be worth it to you to pay a little extra to get genuine Epson ink cartridges for your Epson printer.

Epson cartridges are well known for problems associated with refilling. This is because they are manufactured differently to most other brands of ink cartridges.

Epson cartridges contain a sponge and this is what generally causes problems when refilling as it fails to absorb the new ink.

The biggest problem associated with refilling Epson cartridges is injecting the ink too quickly. This can cause air bubbles in the cartridge so be patient and take your time. You can avoid a lot of problems by refilling your Epson cartridges while they still have about 50% of ink left in the cartridge.

Once you have refilled the cartridge let it sit for an hour. Some say to let it sit for up to a day to enable the sponge to absorb the ink as well as allow for the release of any air bubbles which may have formed. In both cases, ensure that you do not leave your printer without a cartridge as the print head can dry up. Keep a second filled cartridge on hand to use between refills. Once the cartridge is back in your printer, run a few cleaning cycles to get the ink flowing.

If you find that despite the cartridge being refilled the printer still recognises it as being empty then you probably have one of the newer models of printer. The newer Epson cartridges contain a chip which prevents refilling of cartridges. There are however a number of software and hardware tools available which can reset the chip.
