Comparison of DURABrite Ultra Pigment Ink and Dye-Based Ink
DURABrite Ultra is the only consumer-class 4-color ink set that uses all pigment-based ink; some competitive
printers use pigment-based black with dye-based color, and others use all dye-based ink. The key advantage of Epson
DURABrite Ultra pigment ink is its ability to produce the highest quality text and photos, offering color qualities
similar to dye-based ink with the durability qualities of pigment ink. The key differences between conventional dye
ink and DURABrite Ultra pigment ink are:

Fade-resistance
Water-Resistance
Plain Paper Printing
Media Selection
Epson also offers a dye-based ink set using 6-
color Epson Photo Ink. This ink set is included
in printers and all-in-one printers designed for
photo enthusiasts. For this customer, the increased
gradation level with the additional light intensity
inks is critical, as this customer's primary focus is
printing photographs from snapshot size to 8x10s.
The comparison of the two ink systems can be
summarized according to the chart at right.
