Advantages of DURABrite Ultra Pigment Ink—Enhanced Support for Glossy Papers

Many consumers are looking for a printer that can produce great everyday text documents and photos; with the new

DURABrite Ultra pigment ink, customers get high quality glossy photos without compromising the text and graphic

printing quality on plain paper that DURABrite Ink has been known for. DURABrite Ultra pigment ink offers these new

advantages when printing photos on glossy papers:

Better glossiness: Where previous formulations of DURABrite Ink were optimized mostly for plain and matte

papers and produced good quality photos on glossy papers, the DURABrite Ultra pigment ink now produces

extremely good output on even the best Epson glossy photo papers:

• Epson Ultra Premium Glossy Photo Paper—This "best of breed"

glossy photo paper has a heavier, professional weight with a

smooth, high-gloss ﬁnish.

• Epson Premium Glossy Photo Paper— This high-gloss paper

makes prints look and feel like a traditional photograph.

• Epson Premium Semigloss Photo Paper—This media has the

look and feel of true photographic paper, and is ideal for printing

displays or scenic color images. The semigloss ﬁnish delivers

beautiful results.

• Epson Premium Luster Photo Paper—This paper with Luster

E surface ﬁnish produces vivid, lifelike images that rival those

of traditional silver halide prints, with high saturation and high

D-Max for true photographic reproductions. It is compatible

with the DURABrite Ultra pigment ink when using the Premium

Semigloss Photo Paper driver setting.

• Epson Glossy Photo Paper—This glossy photo paper delivers a

smooth, glossy ﬁnish for everyday photos.

Reduced gloss differential: Gloss differential occurs when the

gloss of the paper is different from the gloss of the ink. By using a

new resin formulation, gloss differential with the DURABrite Ultra

pigment ink is reduced and the color gamut is improved.

Reduced metamerism: Metamerism is an effect where colors

appear to be different under dissimilar lighting conditions (such as

natural light and ﬂuorescent light). With the new ink formulation,

metamerism is reduced.

DURABrite Ultra pigment ink has the ﬂexibility to produce high quality

glossy photos as well as superb photos on matte papers. Epson printers

and all-in-one printers with DURABrite Ultra pigment ink all support

BorderFree

printing, too, so your customers can print borderless,

frame-ready photos right out of the printer—without trimming or

perforations.
