PowerChrome ink uses InkTec's own ®Nano
Coating Technology to prevent discoloration for a long period of UV light
exposure. Incorporating
double density pigments, PowerChrome produces prints with an extremely wide
colour gamut allowing the reproduction of colours as originally envisioned
at the point of capture. With Photo Black, Light Black, Matte Black, the ink
can perfectly reproduce the rich impression of a black and white photo.
Furthermore, recognizing that
the Epson Piezo head, which uses the electric vibration to disperse the ink,
may not perform well if foam exists in the ink, PowerChrome is designed to
be free of the foam from the selection of the raw materials in the blending and
manufacturing.
Due to technical
difficulties, many ink manufacturers do not offer pigment ink or only offer
the pigment black inks, but InkTec's PowerChrome is available in all colours
based on their outstanding dispersing technology and excellent colour
presentation. This includes the photo colours of red, blue and other pigment
colours that
increase colour quality of the graphics. If you want to print an image that
will be kept for long time, PowerChrome ink is recommended as it offers high
durability and lightfastness for matt paper, glossy paper as well as the
other papers. PowerChrome ink is the answer for high priced printers
or professional looking pictures.
Is Ultrachrome Printing ok for me?
An improved version of Epson's Archival
ColorFast ink and developed for the latest generation of inkjet professional
printers, Epson UltraChrome ink is one of the most important advances made
in printing. Achieving superb color expression on a variety of media is made
possible by an increase of the density of pigment content in the ink, which
also provides for a much wider range of media support. Even with greater
pigment density, each particle has an extremely smooth and uniform resin
coating, ensuring superbly sharp image reproduction on both specialty media
and plain paper along with marked improvements in light and water
resistance.

broadens the range of color reproduction.

Superb water resistant Epson

| Since dye based ink
contains water-soluble colorant, the colorant dissolves when coming
in contact with water. |

| The Epson range of
inkjet printers for professionals use only pigment inks -
therefore each print has superb water-resistance, whether monochrome
or colour. |

| Excellent
Durability |
| The pigment colorant
improves light and gas resistance. Since the pigment colorant exists in
the particle form, only the surface is affected by light and gas, and
the color inside remains vivid. Epson UltraChrome Ink utilises this
property of pigment ink effectively achieving superior light and gas
resistance. Extremely High

Do you want to print Ultrachrome printing is the answer!
PLEASE NOTE: You can switch your printer back
to using regular inks at any time. However, it is not practical to switch
back and forth. If you are setting up a Ultrachrome Printing System do not
expect to use the same printer for other purposes.
The printer should be dedicated to Ultrachrome, as the
cartridges cannot be easily or cheaply switched with regular cartridges, for
regular document printing.
