I have an Epson Stylus N215 - and ink costs a LOT of money at the regular big box stores. Even $20 for one colour is an extraordinary amount for ink.

I am able to get this 4 pack for a ridiculously low price (between $9.99 to $12.95 depending on whether or not it is on sale), and I love it.

I haven't had any leakages, and use my printer quite often. A little bit less now that I don't have a home office, but I still regularly print photographs, signs, and recipes.

Sometimes it does gum up the printer slightly, but the cost of my printer plus the cost of these cartridges...it really doesn't bother me. My printer is still going strong 5 intense years after using the T088 cartridges (123inkcartridges.ca)
