Product Information

Full details

This guide is for Epson printer owners who need a reliable yellow ink cartridge. The key benefit is vibrant, long-lasting prints with DURABrite Ultra Ink, optimized for Epson printers. A potential caveat is that it's a single color cartridge, meaning you'll need to purchase other colors separately for full-color printing. This original Epson T1284 ink cartridge provides a page yield of approximately 260 pages and uses pigment-based ink for durable results.

FAQs

What is the page yield for the Epson T1284 Yellow ink cartridge?

The Epson T1284 Yellow ink cartridge has an estimated page yield of 260 pages, based on ISO/IEC 24711 testing standards.

What type of ink does the T1284 cartridge use?

This cartridge uses Epson's DURABrite Ultra Ink, which is a pigment-based ink designed for sharp, durable, and water-resistant prints.

Which Epson printers are compatible with the T1284 Yellow cartridge?

It is compatible with several Epson Stylus and Epson Stylus Office models, including the SX445W, SX440W, SX435W, SX420W, SX235W, SX130, SX125, S22, BX305FW Plus, BX305FW, and BX305F.

Can I use this cartridge if I print a lot of photos?

Yes, DURABrite Ultra Ink is well-suited for photo printing, offering vibrant colors and resistance to fading and smudging, especially on compatible Epson photo papers.

How do I know when to replace the yellow ink cartridge?

Your printer's software will typically notify you when the ink level is low or when the cartridge is empty. You may also notice a decline in print quality or missing yellow in your prints.

What does 'individual ink' mean?

It means that each color (black, cyan, magenta, yellow) is in its own separate cartridge. You only need to replace the specific color that has run out, which can be more cost-effective than replacing a multi-color cartridge.

Where is this ink cartridge manufactured?

This Epson ink cartridge is manufactured in the United Kingdom.

Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing the yellow ink cartridge

Ensure the cartridge is correctly installed and fully seated. Remove and reinsert it. Check for any protective tape that may still be attached. Clean the electrical contacts on the cartridge and in the printer with a lint-free cloth.

Yellow ink not printing or appearing faded

Run the printer's head cleaning utility from the printer's software or control panel. If the problem persists after a few cleaning cycles, the cartridge may be low or empty, or the print head may require servicing.

Print quality issues (streaks, blotches) in yellow areas

Perform a head cleaning and then a nozzle check. If the nozzle check pattern shows missing segments for yellow, run another cleaning cycle. If problems persist, consider a print head alignment or contact Epson support.
