Epson WorkForce Pro WF-C869R XXL ink pack, cyan

Cyan is one of the three colour inks the printer mixes into its whole colour range. Blues and greens depend on it: logos, chart bars, water on maps and the sky in photos. When cyan runs out, blue areas turn pale or greenish and mixed tones drift, even while the other ink packs are still full.

The supplier lists the product type as Ink pack and the product family as XXL Ink Supply Unit. XXL points to a large capacity: the ink supply is meant for a printer that works under heavy load day after day. The supplier gives no ink volume in millilitres and the page yield field reads N/A, so no specific page count can be promised here. Real consumption depends on page coverage and volume.

The supplier product name is WorkForce Pro WF-C869R. There is no separate list of compatible printers for this ink pack, so while the name points to a printer model it does not replace an official compatibility list. Before ordering, compare your printer model name and check the manual or the device screen to see which ink supply the printer needs.

Epson is listed as the manufacturer, so this is an original consumable from the printer maker, not a third-party compatible product. The pack holds one colour, cyan. The colours sit in separate units in the printer, so you replace only the one that is empty while the others keep working.

Offices and departments running a high-capacity WorkForce Pro series printer that print a large number of documents every day. Also IT and facility managers who keep consumables stocked for a printer fleet and prefer original supplies. Before ordering, make sure the device uses the XXL ink supply named WF-C869R.
