Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle is available now at Mascom International for KSh 3,550, supplied brand new and sealed as a 70ml bottle of genuine Epson pigment ink. The Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle fills the yellow tank on Epson's business colour EcoTanks, including the L6490, L6550, L6570, L6580, L15150 and L15160. Epson rates it at up to 6,000 pages, which puts yellow at about KSh 0.59 per page. Bottles in our current batch run to an August 2029 use-by date. Visit us at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Yellow rarely stands out on a page, yet almost every colour you print leans on it. It combines with cyan for greens and with magenta for reds and oranges. School bursars printing certificates with gold borders, agronomists printing green crop reports for county extension teams, and tour operators printing safari brochures all need it. When yellow runs dry, greens turn blue, oranges look pink and golds disappear. The Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle keeps those warm tones accurate on plain paper, and pigment ink holds them steady even after pages are handled and filed for months.
Many Kenyan shops treat yellow as an afterthought and let it run out of stock. Mascom International keeps the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle on the shelf beside the other 112 colours, sealed and clearly dated. School administrators and small agencies across the country tell us the long August 2029 date lets them buy ahead for the whole year. Our staff confirm the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle matches your printer before you pay. Collect it from Kimathi Street, or choose pay-on-arrival delivery to every county in Kenya, from Nyeri to Kilifi.
Common Questions About the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle
Why does the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle matter if yellow barely shows on paper?
Yellow matters because it forms part of most colours you actually see. The Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle supplies the yellow that mixes with cyan into greens and with magenta into reds, oranges and browns. Without it, a green logo prints blue and an orange chart prints pink. Because pure yellow looks pale, many offices forget to check the tank until colours shift. Mascom International recommends checking the yellow level each time you refill black.
How long will one Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle last in a school office?
Epson rates the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle at up to 6,000 pages, extrapolated from ISO test pattern simulations. A school printing 300 colour pages a month, such as newsletters, report card covers and notices, would use one bottle in about 20 months at that rate. Certificates with large gold borders and photo-heavy yearbooks use more. At KSh 3,550 from Mascom International, yellow adds roughly KSh 0.59 to each typical colour page.
How can I tell when the yellow tank is running low?
Look at the ink tank window on your EcoTank rather than relying on printouts, since pale yellow gaps are hard to spot. Prints also give clues: greens shift toward blue, oranges look pink and skin tones turn cool. A nozzle check shows yellow faintly, so hold it under good light. Refill with the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle before the level drops below the lower line. Mascom International keeps yellow stocked for quick top-ups.
How does the Epson 112 yellow compare with the Epson 108 yellow?
The Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle holds pigment ink for business printers, while the 108 yellow holds dye ink for L8050 and L18050 photo printers. Pigment suits plain paper documents that must resist smudging and water. Dye suits glossy photo paper, where it gives smoother gradients. Their nozzles are keyed differently, so neither fits the other printer. Mascom International sells the 112 yellow at KSh 3,550, and our staff direct photo studios to the right 108 bottles.
Is it wise to buy the yellow bottle ahead of the school term?
Buying ahead makes good sense with this batch. The Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle from our current stock carries an August 2029 use-by date, which gives nearly four years of shelf life. Schools can stock up in January for the whole year of exams, prize days and circulars. Keep sealed bottles upright in their cartons in a cool store room. Mascom International can supply several bottles at once for schools and county offices with larger budgets.
Does yellow ink cope with humid offices in Mombasa and along the coast?
A sealed Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle is unaffected by coastal humidity, because the carton and cap keep moisture out. Printed pages also dry quickly, since pigment sits on the paper surface. Offices in Mombasa, Kilifi and Malindi should store paper in closed packs, as damp paper causes more print problems than the ink itself. Keep the tank caps closed between refills. Mascom International delivers yellow to Mombasa, Kilifi and Malindi within 1 business day.
Who should buy the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle, and who should skip it?
Buy the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle if you own a 112-series EcoTank such as the L6490, L6580 or L15160 and your yellow level has fallen. Skip it if you run a six-colour L8050 photo printer, which uses 108 dye inks instead. Skip it for mono M-series printers too, which print only in black. Mascom International stocks inks for each of these printers, so send your model on WhatsApp before you order.
Can the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle help print certificates with gold tones?
Yes. Gold on a four-colour printer is a mix of yellow with small amounts of magenta and black, so a full yellow tank is essential for certificate borders and school crests. The Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle gives those golds a warm, even tone on matte certificate card. Metallic gold cannot be reproduced by any standard inkjet ink. Mascom International advises using card within your printer's supported paper weight for clean results.
Why do greens still look wrong after I refilled yellow?
If greens stay off after refilling with the Epson 112 EcoTank Yellow Ink Bottle, the problem is likely a partly blocked nozzle or low cyan. Print a nozzle check and inspect both the cyan and yellow patterns under daylight. Run one cleaning cycle if either shows gaps, then retest. Also confirm the paper type setting in the driver matches your loaded paper. Mascom International can guide you through these checks on WhatsApp at +254 708 852 521.
Technical Specifications
Yellow Ink Profile
- Product code C13T06C44A identifies the genuine Epson 112 yellow bottle on its carton and label.
- Each bottle contains 70ml of yellow pigment ink, the same volume as the 112 cyan and magenta bottles.
- Rated yield reaches up to 6,000 pages, extrapolated by Epson from standard ISO test pattern simulations.
- Pigment particles stay on the paper surface, so yellow tones dry quickly and resist smearing on plain paper.
- Our current yellow batch is dated August 2029, giving close to four years of shelf life.
- Colour output follows Epson's driver profiles, so greens and oranges on screen match the printed sheet.
Matching EcoTank Printers
- L6460, L6490, L6550, L6570 and L6580, the A4 business EcoTanks common in Kenyan offices and schools.
- L11160, an A3 print-only EcoTank used for colour posters, maps and seating plans.
- L15150, L15160 and L15180, A3 multifunction EcoTanks found in design studios and larger school offices.
- Not for L8050 or L18050 photo printers, which need the 108 dye yellow bottle instead.
- Not for M-series mono EcoTanks, which have no colour tanks and use the 110 black bottle.
- The ink tank label on your printer lists the series number, so confirm it reads 112.
Where Yellow Shows Up
- Builds every green with cyan, from crop charts and park maps to eco-branded logos.
- Builds reds and oranges with magenta for sale posters, warning notices and sunset photos.
- Forms the base of gold and brown tones in certificate borders, school crests and wooden textures.
- Warms skin tones in staff photos, preventing the cold blue cast of an empty yellow tank.
- Highlights key figures in coloured tables and charts where pale yellow shading marks important rows.
- Balanced yellow keeps brand colours consistent across repeat print runs of menus and brochures.
Bottle and Refilling
- Keyed nozzle fits only the yellow tank inlet, preventing yellow from contaminating neighbouring tanks.
- Ink flows by gravity once the bottle is upright, with no squeezing or tilting needed.
- Flow slows as the tank nears its upper line, reducing the chance of spills over the printer.
- Screw cap reseals the bottle after a partial fill, holding the rest for the next top-up.
- Refilling takes a few minutes and involves no cartridges, chips or printer alignment.
- Wipe drips quickly, since yellow pigment leaves stains that stand out on light desks and clothing.
Yellow Running Cost
- Yellow costs about KSh 0.59 per page at the Mascom International price of KSh 3,550.
- A 50-certificate prize-day batch uses roughly KSh 30 of yellow at the rated yield.
- A full 112 set of black, cyan, magenta and yellow costs KSh 14,650 at Mascom International.
- A typical four-colour office page costs about KSh 2.30 in ink across all four tanks.
- Green-heavy reports, gold borders and landscape photos use more yellow than the rated average.
- Run head cleanings only after a failed nozzle check, since each cycle uses ink from all four tanks.
Care Between Refills
- Store spare bottles upright in their cartons in a cool, shaded cupboard away from windows.
- Print a colour test page weekly so yellow pigment keeps flowing through the nozzles.
- Power the printer off at its own button after load shedding, letting the head cap itself.
- Refill before the yellow level falls below the lower line, keeping air out of the ink path.
- Keep paper packs closed in humid coastal offices, since damp sheets cause feeding and ink problems.
