Any thoughts on using authentic but very expired ink in the Epson R800?
Thanks, Kathy


Hi Kathy ...nice to hear from you.

Third party equivalent cartridges have a greater tendency to block than Epson cartridges. I found they needed to be used more regularly to keep the ink flowing. It might be that out of date Epson cartridges have a greater tendency to block....if that's the case, the same increased frequency of use should work. But I do really wonder if Epson's ink shelf life is more about colour fidelity rather than a tendency to dry out. After all, they are sealed.

I would go for it.
