Aster Graphics Inc 202XL High Yield Ink Cartridge 5 Pack 2BK+CMY

High-yield ink set for Epson WorkForce

This five-pack contains two black cartridges plus cyan, magenta and yellow units built to replace the Epson 202XL series. It fits WorkForce WF-2860 and Expression Home XP-5100 as well as Expression Premium XP-6000, XP-6005, XP-6100 and XP-6105 models. Each cartridge carries a smart chip so the printer recognises it immediately. The set suits home offices and small businesses that print regularly and want a lower cost per page.

Straightforward installation with chip recognition

Cartridges slot into the carriage exactly like the originals and the onboard chip registers ink levels without extra steps. The package includes clear instructions so no specialist knowledge is required. The main issues users report are occasional chip-read errors if contacts are dusty and rare firmware updates that temporarily block third-party supplies; wiping the contacts and restarting the printer usually resolves both.

Consistent output over long print runs

Black cartridges are rated for up to 550 pages and each colour for up to 470 pages under standard test conditions. Because the ink formulation is matched to the printer’s drop size and drying time, density stays even across large batches without the fading sometimes seen in short bursts. The ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 compliant manufacturing process also helps maintain reliable flow during extended sessions.
