£85.74 inc. VAT
AI-generated summary
If you’re running an Epson large-format system that actually takes the T6425 light cyan, this cartridge can be solid value. The big tell is whether you get consistent, predictable output quality for things like CAD prints, proofs, or signage where that light cyan helps keep gradients and skin tones looking smooth rather than banded. At £71.34 ex-VAT, it’s not “cheap,” but large-format inks rarely are—what matters is cost per usable print and whether your workflow avoids wasting ink through frequent head cleanings and test prints.
That said, I wouldn’t buy this “just because” unless you’re confident you’ll use it soon. Light cyan inks can sit around if jobs are sporadic, and once ink starts ageing you’re more likely to burn time and extra ink getting things back to perfect. For the right buyer—an office doing regular volume prints on compatible Epson wide-format kit—this is a sensible purchase. For anyone printing occasionally, it’s often better to wait and reorder closer to your actual job schedule. If you tell me what printer model you’re using and roughly how many prints you do per week, I can give you a clearer verdict on whether £71.34 is a good deal for your situation.
