At the time I purchased this it had no reviews, but I've bought generic ink before with no issues, just not this kind. We bought our daughter a new printer for Christmas and got this extra ink to go with it. We ran out of the regular Epson ink so put this ink in and it only prints shadows of what's supposed to be printed. Figured it was this generic ink so put name brand Epson in and it took several tries for the printer to start function correctly again and also several tries for it to print legibly also. I was so worried it had ruined our whole printer, but luckily it's finally printing right again. And what a waste because it was bought around Christmas and now it's April so we can't even return it. So don't buy this!
