22. In my experience, yes.

I used to replace color cartridges in my relatively HP nearly every month, at $45+ per cartridge. My Epson has six individual cartridges, and I get about a year out of the colors and six months for the black. I print mostly knitting patterns with that printer, so lots of large, colorful pages totaling about 500 pages per year or so. My Brother printer gets a lot more use on a day-to-day basis, but mostly printing text, and it's frugal on ink, too.

I love the RPN function on my HP 48g!
