I find their colour output is great, and they generally always work with no problems, and last fairly well. (On average). I've a few clients with the R290 and they've never had any problems with them, otherwise I'm sure I would have heard about it. The new Epson range is very well priced. Personally, I don't think you can go wrong with Epson. But that's my own opinion. :o) Hope that helps.
