Yellow is quietly the hardest-working color in a photo printer — it sits inside almost every warm tone and green. Our compatible T273XL420-S is a Claria Premium dye yellow rated up to 650 pages (ISO/IEC 24711), against 300 pages for the standard T273420-S; code 420 is yellow throughout the 273 family.


The cartridge carries a new compatible chip for ink-level reporting. This cartridge carries a new compatible chip. If your printer's firmware has been updated, recognition issues can occasionally occur — if a warning appears, reseat the cartridge firmly and restart the printer before assuming the cartridge is at fault. Its siblings are T273XL020-S pigment black (up to 500 pages), T273XL120-S Photo Black (Epson publishes no ISO page yield for it), T273XL220-S cyan and T273XL320-S magenta (up to 650 pages each).
It fits the seven verified 273 printers — XP-520, XP-600, XP-610, XP-620, XP-800, XP-810 and XP-820 — and no other family. Covered by our lifetime warranty, with free returns for the first year.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many pages does the T273XL420 print?
Up to 650 pages, Epson's ISO/IEC 24711 rating for the genuine XL yellow. Landscapes and warm-toned photos use yellow faster than the document-based pattern assumes.
Which printers take it?
The seven verified Expression Premium models: XP-520, XP-600, XP-610, XP-620, XP-800, XP-810 and XP-820.
Dye or pigment?
Dye — Claria Premium. Only the family's 020 Black is pigment; yellow is one of the four dye cartridges.
Does it have a chip?
Yes — a new compatible chip. This cartridge carries a new compatible chip. If your printer's firmware has been updated, recognition issues can occasionally occur — if a warning appears, reseat the cartridge firmly and restart the printer before assuming the cartridge is at fault.
Why do my prints look too blue when yellow runs out?
Without yellow, the printer cannot build warm tones or greens, so images shift blue-purple. Replacing the yellow — not the cyan or magenta — is the fix when the printer flags yellow low.
Can I install this XL yellow next to standard colors?
Yes. Each slot is independent; XL and standard cartridges mix freely in the same printer.
Is a millilitre volume available?
No published figure exists in Epson's US documentation for this family, so the Volume field is left blank. The ISO yield — up to 650 pages — is the honest comparison.
Standard or XL — which is this?
XL: T273XL420-S, rated 650 pages. The standard T273420-S (300 pages) is a genuine-only item in our catalogue; our compatible range is XL-only and labeled as such.
Is it a genuine Epson cartridge?
No — a Clever Supplies compatible built to the T273XL420-S specification, labeled compatible on the box and this page.
What does the lifetime warranty cover?
Non-recognition after troubleshooting, leaking, or poor output from new — the cartridge is replaced under the lifetime warranty, with free returns for the first year.
Does it fit 302 printers like the XP-6000?
No. The 302 family is a separate Claria Premium line for different printers; its cartridges do not fit the seven 273 models, and this yellow fits nothing outside them.
Single or set?
The single when only yellow is flagged. When the color set is ageing together, the Set of 5 or Bulk Set of 11 costs less per cartridge — both linked from this page.
