In recent years, Epson has been accused of manufacturing expensive consumables for their printers. It is also said that the company is forcing customers to purchase replacement ink cartridges before they are truly spent by using 'intelligence chips' to count how many pages have been printed in order to estimate the remaining ink, without actually monitoring the true ink levels.

Because many new Epson printers use an individual cartridge for each color as opposed to grouping all the colors in one cartridge, there are occasions where this system can save money because you do not have to discard the color cartridge because one color is empty. In the end, it is up to the printer's user to determine if the separate color system is better for them or not.
