Epson T1597 Red

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

If you’re using an Epson inkjet that takes the T1597, this red cartridge is priced sensibly for the money (£16.75 ex-VAT isn’t a bargain, but it’s not reckless either). For day-to-day office printing—emails, internal docs, occasional charts—the red does exactly what you want without drama, and Epson’s own inks tend to behave consistently in terms of colour stability and print reliability.

I’d only buy it if your printer is already set up for T1597 and you actually use red often. If you print mostly black-and-white, the cost per page can quietly get worse because you’ll be replacing a “small colour” before you’ve really squeezed value out of it. Also, if you’re printing a lot of colour-heavy material, you’ll want to sanity-check your expected print volume versus how quickly that cartridge typically empties—inkjet colours can disappear faster than you think.
