Product Description

Amazon.com 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.

I have ordered this ink cartridge from Amazon several times before and it's fine. It is genuine Epson Claria ink. I see no reason to worry about any problems with it.

This review is from: Epson 78 Cyan Ink Cartridge (T078220) (Office Product)

I received a remanufactured ink cartridge rather than a genuine Epson cartridge. That may work fine for daily work use but not for photo use. Claria Hi-Definition Inks are manufactured specifically for use on Epson photo papers. The inks actually contain a chemical that interact with the paper. I've gone down this road before and non-Epson inks just don't work on the Epson photo paper. Epson does not supply its Claria inks to vendors for refill so this cartridge contains the same run-of-the-mill ink I could have refilled myself. I am trying to decide whether it's worth the effort to return the item or just throw in the garbage.
