US ITC Ban On Compatible Epson Cartridges


 

Unfortunately, due to a General Exclusion Order on 10/19/2007 issued by the United States International Trade Commission, all new Epson compatible brand desktop printer cartridges from all manufacturers can no longer be imported into the United States. In this latest action Epson was successfully able to convince the US ITC that most new Epson compatible cartridges were violating several patents for their cartridges. Since 100% of the Epson compatibles are imported, all factory affiliates in this country can no longer legally sell them.

The exclusion order was a severe blow to the compatible ink cartridge industry and more so for you the consumer. We are sure you are well aware of the high cost of genuine OEM cartridges.

With no legal new compatible products available, we began sales of remanufactured Epson ink cartridges. These products were found to work just as well as the new compatibles and would be about the same price.

Unfortunately, many of the legal remanufactured Epson cartridges are not always available or available only in limited quantities due to very high demand for the products; therefore, you may not see the Add to Shopping Cart button.

We will update the website product pages as any cartridges become available, expected restock dates or news of alternative products. If you are a returning customer or a new customer and you do not see the "Add to Shopping Cart" button for the products you need, please click the email address below for any updates concerning availability of the products.
