Q. I have purchased an Epson Stylus SX130 second hand, what cartridges should I buy and what is a compatible ink cartridge?

A. The Epson Stylus SX130 ink is available both as the original Epson ink and as a compatible ink cartridge. The original ink cartridge is manufactured by Epson and the compatible ink is manufactured by a third-paerty manufacturer that is not Epson. The compatible Epson Stylus SX130 ink will work fine in your printer for a fraction of the cost of the original Epson ink. We recommend you buy a compatible Epson T1285 multipack that consists of the four colours T1281 black, T1282 cyan, T1283 magenta and T1284 yellow. There are various packs available for this printer depending on how much printing you intend to do.



Q. I have installed a black T1281 cartridge in my printer and it says the cartridge is not recognised, what can I do to get it working?
A.I assume the ink cartridge you have inserted is a compatible one and that is the reason for the printer not recognising the cartridge. Simply remove the ink cartridge, check that the yellow seal has been removed, if not remove and then re-insert the cartridge. If the seal has been removed then gently wipe the 'chip' area of the cartridge with a soft dry cloth to remove any static that may be present and re-insert the cartridge. If the cartridge fails to be recognised it's possible the cartridge is faulty and you should replace with another black cartridge.



Q. I am getting poor quality prints from my cartridges that i purchased from you, do I need to order replacement cartridges? .
A.It's possible that there may be an issue with the print heads in your printer. In the first instance you will need to carry out a head cleaning procedure to see if this helps. This can be accessed from the properties>maintenance>head cleaning. Please print out a test sheet before and after the head cleaning to see the difference and improvement in print quality.
