The six-color ink cartridge provides rich depth of tone along with resistance to water, fading, and annoying smudges.

The longevity is outstanding. According to Epson, when you store your photos in archival pages, you can expect them to retain their shading for up to 200 years, or up to 100 years when displayed under glass indoors. Each cartridge yields approximately 100 photos; the exact amount may vary. The pack is backed by a satisfaction guarantee provided by Epson.

Customer Reviews

I Agree with "Great Prints", PictureMate produces top quality prints at about half the price of its competitors. Look at the price of the refill packs for the competition and pay attention to the number of prints per box, you will find that they cost between 50 and 60 cents per prints. That is where your true cost, and true savings accrue. PictureMate is 29 cents per print. The quality, as always from Epson is Outstanding. One thing that I noticed is that the default setting causes a photo to print in 8 to 9 minutes. If you go into the Print Settings and uncheck the "Enhance Fine Details" Checkbox, the PictureMate will produce a fantastic, beautiful, and durable print in about 2 to 3 minutes, which is acceptable.

In response to another reviewer about selecting prints, I agree that it is not easy to select prints when printing from card, I either remember the number or you can use most cameras to mark images for printing in camera. I too print from computer and this is definitely the way to go.

This print pack MAY NOT BE COMPATIBLE with the PictureMate 200 series printers. If you have a PictureMate Pal, Snap, or Flash printer, you should order EITHER T5846 for 150 glossy prints OR the T5845-M for 100 matte prints.

If the box does not specifically say that it is for PictureMate Series 200 printers (Pal, Snap, and Flash) such as the T5846 or T5845-M packs - DON'T BUY IT! You will end up with the wrong size cartridge. T5570, T5570-M, and "270" cartridges are not compatible with the PictureMate 200 series.

For 150 glossy prints, stick to T5846, such as:

T5846 ASIN-B000IT4O0A

T5846 ASIN-B000KJBRK8

T5846 ASIN-B000JMFVY4

T5846 ASIN-B000MFJOZU

T5846 ASIN-B000L9MES6

T5846 ASIN-B000NZRJFQ

For 100 matte prints, stick to T5845-M, such as:

T5845-M ASIN-B000IT4O0U

T5845-M ASIN-B000LDRJS2

T5845-M ASIN-B000JMHV38

T5845-M ASIN-B000OCMVLU

The low rating isn't so much a reflection on the product as it is on the product's packaging. The manufacturer, Epson, knows that it has more than one type of Picturemate system on the market and that the cartridges are not compatible across all Picturemate models - yet the packaging does not state anywhere with which models the print pack is or isn't compatible. This oversight could be easily fixed by adding information to the packaging.
