Epson C13T13M140 ink cartridge 1 pc(s) Original Extra (Super) High Yield Black

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

At £364.55 ex-VAT for a single Epson “Extra (Super) High Yield” black cartridge, this is *very* hard to justify for most UK offices. For that money you’re not just paying for ink—you’re paying a premium for being “original,” and unless you’re printing huge volumes of black-only documents, the cost per page usually ends up looking worse than it needs to. If your priority is reliability (no banding, fewer firmware/compatibility headaches) then original ink can make sense—but this price point feels closer to “someone must have set the wrong pricing somewhere” than “normal high-yield value.”

Who should buy it: a business with a high, consistent print run *and* a printer model that is known to be fussy about third-party inks, where downtime or print-quality issues are genuinely expensive. Who should *not* buy it: small teams, shared print rooms, or anyone who prints mixed content and can’t guarantee steady black usage—because you’ll burn budget long before you get the full benefit of “high yield.” If you tell me your printer model and approximate pages/month, I can sanity-check whether this cartridge is likely to be cost-effective for your actual usage.
