Frequently Asked Questions
Why is this referred to as an “Ink Supply Unit” rather than a cartridge?
This unit is part of Epson’s RIPS technology, which utilizes high-capacity soft ink packs (or bags) instead of traditional hard plastic cartridges. This allows for significantly higher ink volumes in a more space-efficient format that reduces overall packaging waste.
Does this ink work well for double-sided printing?
Yes. The fast-drying DURABrite Pro pigment ink is tailored for high-speed offices where duplex (double-sided) printing is common, as it minimizes bleed-through and eliminates smudging between pages.
How do I install the T05A1 unit?
The unit is engineered for “hassle-free, tool-free installation.” Simply unlock the front cover of the printer and slide the ink pack tray out to swap the units. The integrated chip will automatically register the new supply levels once the tray is reinserted
