Yes, this cartridge is showing a little repetitive "shadow" over on the
left border - doesn't bother me much, but my wife complains about it.

I did a quick look at Ebay and found just one vendor selling toner
refills for that cartridge - - 2 for $30 or so, shipped.  I think I'd
give that a try if it is still making good copies when the toner runs
out. Otherwise, I did see at least one new genuine Epson cartridge there
for about $60, shipped.

Good luck. - - -  JimH.
