Epson 108 ink bottles for the L18050

The Epson L18050 uses the Epson 108 ink bottle family — six individual 70ml bottles: 108 Black (T09C1), 108 Cyan (T09C2), 108 Magenta (T09C3), 108 Yellow (T09C4), 108 Light Cyan (T09C5) and 108 Light Magenta (T09C6). The key-lock bottle design makes refilling mess-free and drip-free, and the front-facing ink tanks are easy to top up. A black bottle yields about 3,600 pages and each colour bottle about 7,200 pages (composite). Bonolo Online stocks genuine Epson 108 ink bottles — check availability for the colour you need.

Who is the Epson L18050 for?

The L18050 is ideal for photographers, graphic designers, architects, schools and small print shops that regularly print A3 or A3+ photos, posters, proofs, plans and presentations. The 6-colour system with light cyan and light magenta delivers smoother gradients and better skin tones than 4-colour printers. It also prints on CDs/DVDs and PVC/ID cards, which makes it a versatile studio workhorse. If you only need A4 photo printing, the smaller Epson L8050 is a more affordable option.
