Which
Epson Ink Technology Should I Use?
At
the time of purchase, the customer must choose which ink technology
they want to use. With the introduction of EPSON UltraChrome Ink,
it will become more difficult to decide which Epson ink technology
to choose. For most customers, EPSON UltraChrome Ink will
be the obvious choice. This breakthrough ink technology will forever
change the perception of pigmented inks. This ink is best for:
- Professional
Photography & Fine-art Photography that is intended for display
or resale
- Commercial
Pre-press Proofing workflows when using optional RIP technologies
- Any
indoor or short-term outdoor display signage
The
EPSON Photographic Dye Ink, especially when used with EPSON
ColorLife media, will produce stunning photographic prints with
lightfastness ratings up to 26 years under glass. This still outlasts
traditional silver halide prints. This ink is best for:
- Photography
that only requires a lightfastness rating up to 26 years under
glass
- Color
Comping, General Purpose Graphics, and Business Presentation Graphics
- CAD,
GIS Mapping, Architecture, etc. where ink costs might be an issue
- Any
user who does not care about lightfastness and wants the lowest
possible operational costs
