Frequently Asked Questions

Why nine cartridges — and why three blacks?

Because black is consumed fastest. The box holds 3 × black, 2 × cyan, 2 × magenta and 2 × yellow, all XL, so a document-heavy printer can run a long stretch without a mid-cycle black reorder.

How many pages is that in total?

We don't total it — cartridges empty at different rates. Per cartridge: black up to 500 pages, each colour up to 450 pages (ISO/IEC 24711).

Which printers does it fit?

All eight officially verified 220-family models: XP-320, XP-420, XP-424, WF-2630, WF-2650, WF-2660, WF-2750, WF-2760. Each model takes the same 220 / 220XL code set, confirmed in Epson's own cartridge documentation.

How should I store a spare cartridge?

Sealed in its vacuum pack, upright, at room temperature and out of direct sunlight. Do not open the pack until install day — the vacuum seal is what keeps the cartridge reliable. (A specific shelf-life figure is not published for this product; see Specifications.)

How long can the spares sit in the cupboard?

Keep them sealed in their vacuum packs, upright, at room temperature and out of sunlight, and install them one position at a time as the printer asks. We do not publish a specific shelf-life figure for this product (see Specifications), so buy the pack size your printing realistically turns over.

Will this cartridge be recognised by my printer?

This cartridge carries a new compatible chip. If your printer's firmware has been updated, recognition issues can occasionally occur — power the printer off, reseat the cartridge until it clicks, and restart before assuming the cartridge is faulty. We do not promise recognition under every future firmware version; if a recognition problem cannot be cleared, the cartridge is covered by our lifetime warranty.

Is this set XL or standard capacity?

XL throughout — every cartridge in the box is a high-capacity code (T220XL120 / 220 / 320 / 420). Our 220 shelf is XL-only; standard codes fit the same printers but are not what this set contains.

What kind of ink is inside?

DURABrite Ultra pigment ink — the same ink family Epson specifies for the whole 220 line, in all four colours. Pigment ink is why these printers are known for smudge-, water- and fade-resistant document prints.

I print mostly black text. Why do my colours still run down?

These printers draw a small amount of ink from every cartridge during printing and cleaning cycles to keep the permanent print head charged and clear — Epson states this in its own support answers. Colour cartridges therefore fall slowly even on black-only work, and the printer will ask for a spent colour to be replaced before it keeps printing.

My neighbour's printer takes 288 cartridges. Are 220 and 288 interchangeable?

No. The 220 and 288 families look similar on a shelf but use different codes and chips, and they are not interchangeable — a 288 cartridge in a 220 printer (for example a WF-2760) produces a recognition error. The same applies to the older 200 family. Order by the code on your printer's cartridge door, not by appearance.

Is this a genuine Epson cartridge?

No — it is a Clever Supplies compatible cartridge built to the genuine cartridge's specification and code, labelled compatible on the box and on this page. It is not manufactured by Epson.

What warranty and returns cover this cartridge?

A lifetime warranty: a cartridge that fails to perform is replaced. Free returns run for the first year. (Returns note: the 1-year returns period is our standing compatible-product policy, applied to inkjet as an assumption pending Emrah's inkjet-specific confirmation.)
