Supplied Cartridge Capacity?
What capacity is the supplied cartridge? If "normal" it makes no sense to but a new cartridge but to replace the printer... Is this ecologicaly sound?

Ridiculous!!
PLEASE in printer reviews tell us what consumables are supplied with the printer!! Manufacturers are generally coy about this (Epson are no exception) so this is a critical value add we rely on you for! (Or do the printer manufacturers forbid you from revealing this?)
As tonytill points out, assuming you get a standard toner cartridge with the printer, you'd be a mug to ever buy a replacement since a whole new printer costs less! On the basis of buying a new printer every 1800 pages, the cost per page would be 2.8p versus 3.3 if you replace the consumables!

Comes with standard toner cart
Just checked with an Epson online assistant and he stated that it comes with the standard toner cart.
Which means the printer costs -£21 :)
