I was very excited, but I read in assessments of lower printing quality, clogged nozzles and did not recognize cartridges. I have now min of all colors. a cartridge and printed up to say that I can at least see no difference to the original cartridge on quality. The colors are strong over, are in the right color spectrum and also smear not. I print mostly office documents, but also create from and to quality test expressions for flyers or business cards and again leave the cartridge a good impression.
For vacation photos in glossy but you should possibly have recourse to industrial providers. This is but less on the cartridge, but the printer in general.
On the subject of outages or failure to recognize the cartridges I can not say anything because this has happened to any of the cartridges used.
CONCLUSION: For the price you can not go wrong! And if nevertheless times a cartridge not work is the whole package is still much cheaper than the originals from Epson. From me therefore strong buy recommendation!
