AI-generated summary
The Epson Globe Singlepack Black 266 at £16.55 ex-VAT is the kind of cartridge I’d only buy if you already know you’re using an Epson printer that takes this exact model and you’re happy sticking with OEM. For black-only, it’s usually fine for steady office printing, but at this price it doesn’t feel like a “cheap refills” option—more like you’re paying for reliability and predictable print results than for value. If your print volume is low to moderate, that’s less painful; if you print a lot, you’ll notice the cost quickly compared to multi-packs or higher-yield options.
I’d recommend it for busy teams that don’t want the faff: consistent text output, fewer “why is this printing patchy?” moments, and less risk around compatibility/quality. I’d be a bit cautious if you’re trying to minimise TCO—especially if you can justify experimenting with compatible or remanufactured inks (where allowed) or buying a better-yield option. Bottom line: good for “just works” UK office use, not great if you’re chasing the lowest cost per page.
