Stylus NX125
The Epson Stylus NX125 is the model this cartridge platform is named after in Epson's own guides: it takes both tiers — the 124 Moderate cartridges (T124120 black, up to 190 pages; colors up to 175 each) for lighter use, and the 125 Standard cartridges (T125120 black, up to 230 pages; colors up to 305 each) when you print more. All four colors are DURABrite Ultra pigment ink. Clever Supplies compatible 124 and 125 cartridges for the NX125 are below, each with a new chip and a lifetime warranty.

Stylus NX125 Ink — The Printer Whose Guide Defined This Platform
The Stylus NX125 runs on individual DURABrite Ultra pigment cartridges in two mixable tiers. Standard capacity 124: black T124120 (up to 190 pages), cyan T124220, magenta T124320 and yellow T124420 (up to 175 pages each). High capacity 125: black T125120 (up to 230 pages), cyan T125220, magenta T125320 and yellow T125420 (up to 305 pages each). All yields are per ISO/IEC 24711, and the tiers mix freely — a standard black beside high-capacity colors is a normal configuration.
The NX125 has a documented place in this platform’s history: Epson’s Quick Guide for the printer prints the full two-tier cartridge table — 124 standard, 125 high capacity — which makes this entry model the doc anchor for the platform. Everything the bigger machines claim about their ink, this printer's manual said first.
Which 124/125 should you buy?
- One 124 slot ran dry: the black, cyan, magenta and yellow singles in the 124 tier are $8.69 each — the moderate fill sized for lighter weeks, swapped into the single position that ran out first.
- All four 124 slots ran dry: the Set of 4 ($29.94) refreshes all four positions at the 124 tier — the moderate reset to buy when the whole set fades together.
- One 125 slot ran dry: the black, cyan, magenta and yellow singles in the 125 tier are $8.84 each — the standard fill sized for everyday volume, swapped into the single position that ran out first.
- All four 125 slots ran dry: the Set of 4 ($29.94) refreshes all four positions at the 125 tier — the standard reset to buy when the whole set fades together.
- 125 nine-pack for the shelf: the Set of 9 ($58.59) packs three blacks plus two of each color — the standard reserve that keeps a printer running daily supplied between orders.
Chip, ink and everyday use
An entry model like the NX125 may print in short bursts, but its cartridges still report like the rest of the platform. Every cartridge carries a new compatible chip — handle it by the edges and do not touch the green chip contact, as this platform's own guides warn. If a firmware update ever makes the printer refuse a compatible chip, contact us; the lifetime warranty covers it. The ink is DURABrite Ultra pigment throughout. Epson's guides for this platform put an opened cartridge's working life at about six months, so keep spares sealed until install day.
