Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Get beautiful prints without going to the lab, and enjoy brilliant photos for generations to come. Claria Hi-Definition Ink is a revolutionary new six-color, dye-based ink technology that delivers unsurpassed image quality and long-lasting results. Claria is tailor-made to fit the needs of the discerning photo enthusiast. It provides vivid, true-to-life colors with a wide color gamut that's ideal for printing your best shots.



Because Claria Hi-Definition Ink is a dye-based ink set where ink is absorbed into the paper coating, prints are resistant to scratches caused by handling. You can share your prints worry-free.

Advantages of Claria Hi-Definition Ink

  • Quality without compromise--get beautiful photos made to last
  • Better quality than the lab
  • Smudge, scratch, water and fade resistant prints
  • Optional high-capacity cartridges that give you about 50 percent more prints per cartridge for only a few dollars more
  • You can share your photos worry-free knowing they're smudge and scratch resistant
  • Prints stand up to humidity, moisture and spills
  • Durable prints are a life-saver when you've deleted the original digital file

  • The quick-drying formula allows prints to be handled immediately after printing. Many competitive dye-based printers require special paper for quick drying properties or require several minutes of drying time. Best of all, photos printed with Claria ink will last longer than traditional, lab-processed photos. And, they'll even stand up to spills, smudges and fading. That means you can share and frame your favorite photos, or place them in an album-worry-free.

    Prints resist damage related to high levels of humidity, moisture and water spills on Epson Premium Photo Papers. Water spills on a Claria Ink print can be rubbed off without ruining the print. With many competitive prints, this isn't the case. Because Claria Ink is a dye-based ink set where ink is absorbed into the paper coating, prints are resistant to scratches caused by handling. This standard-capacity ink cartridge is compatible with Epson Stylus models R260, R380 and the RX580.

    What's in the Box:
    One black ink cartridge

    5.0 out of 5 stars Epson 78 black ink, March 30, 2009
    By Henry Haditsch (Suitland ,MD USA) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Epson 78 Black Ink Cartridge (T078120)This is wonderful, same ink as you buy at Staples but cheaper. No driving to the store, no gas, less time away. Sometimes there is free shipping. What more could you ask?

    5.0 out of 5 stars Black ink cartridges arrived immediately, January 31, 2009
    Arrived immediately and in good shape. Only problem was Amazon.com divided order for 3 different color cartridges up and sent it to 3 different vendors. One vendor still hasn't got me the correct cartridges yet.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great But Gone So Fast $$$, January 2, 2009
    By j-rob-82 (Virginia) - See all my reviews
    The price on this ink isn't bad compared to buying from the actual Epson site. The one gripe I have with the ink and the printer is it's pretty costly the amount that it uses but other than that it produces great results. I have now found myself conserving ink when I can since pictures tend to drink it up. I don't understand why you can't buy them all in a set though but then again I do guess black is what always runs out for me first.
