The life of an Epson inkjet cartridge is determined by the printer. When the printer calculates that the cartridge is empty, it informs the chip on the cartridge it is empty. That is that!

How can extra ink be obtained?

The ink status monitor shows how much ink is contained in the cartridges. The status monitor updates itself during printing via information being passed to it from the chips on the cartridges. A cartridge’s print life usually ends when the status monitor believes the cartridge to be empty, and the 'empty' cartridge must be replaced in order for printing to continue. However, Jet Tec Extralife cartridges use "smart" chip technology: When enabled, the chip's patented program activates the Extralife and displays it in the "status monitor"*, thus allowing access to extra ink from the Jet Tec cartridge. NO OTHER CARTRIDGE RANGE DOES THIS. *Some Extralife cartridges may not display Extralife in the status monitor.

Extra ink alone does not mean extra pages..!

Jet Tec's patented extralife system has been independently verified and is the only extralife system in the world.

Other ink cartridge distributors and resellers claim that they have tested and proven that their cartridges print up to 30% more.

This is simply not true!

Unless the chip is reset, the cartridge will not print any more pages than the Epson Original.
