Q. I was advised by the printer supplier to use T1816, but your website lists the 18xls as the correct cartridges. Which will I choose?
A. A reasonable question as the manufacturers do confuse customers with cartridge names. They insist for having long and short tail names for cartridges and it causes so many naming issues. the Epson XP 205 ink cartridges are individually as the T1811,2,3,4. If you want all 4 cartridges in a multipack they are called T1816. But Epson also refer to the cartridges as 18xl as a shorthand form to make it easier to remember the name etc. But as you demonstrated we are not entirely sure this is making things easier but at least we have an understanding of the issue now.
