Guide to Buying Epson R2880 ink
Epson R2880 ink is the ink used in Epson Stylus Photo R2880 inkjet printer. This model of printer is manufactured by Epson, one of the most well known makers of printers in the world. Each year, millions of people from all over the world buy printers made by this company. Epson is known for some of the major inventions that helped push the printer industry forward. These include the invention of the Micro Piezo inkjet technology and also of Epson Stylus Color. Epson Stylus Color is considered one of the first printer models to produce high resolution printed images. Some of Epson’s most popular printers are from the Epson Stylus, Stylus Pro and Artisan series of printers.
The Epson Stylus Photo R2880 inkjet printer is known for its excellent, photo quality print outs. This model printer simultaneously uses nine different printer ink cartridges. The ink cartridges typically contain the following colors: Photo Black, Matte Black, Cyan, Vivid Magenta, Yellow, Light Cyan, Light Vivid Magenta, Light Black and Light Light Black. These colors are said to help produce the brilliant color palette that are favored by professional photographers and hobbyists. Epson’s proprietary technologies also help make the colors last longer.
The pigment inkset is called “Epson UltraChrome K3 with Vivid Magenta pigment inkset.” The Epson Stylus Photo R2880 inkjet printer also uses Radiance, a color matching technology that Epson developed with the Rochester Institute of Technology. Radiance technology is meant to improve the details in highlights and shadows, make the colors more consistently vibrant even when viewed in different lighting directions and conditions. This color technology is good news for your budget – it aims to make the ink usage more efficient.
R2880 ink also produces exceptional range in tones and in gray balance because of Epson Stylus Photo R2880’s three-level black technology. Black and white print outs are also exceptional because of the Advanced Black-and-White Photo Mode.
The printer comes with a starter ink set containing the nine brand new R2880 ink cartridges. Once the ink runs out you will have to plan how you will buy your ink so you won’t end up spending more on ink than on the entire print system. Epson, of course, recommends that you use their original ink cartridges. But you might want to check out remanufactured or compatible ink cartridges; as long as you are getting them from a reliable vendor. And before you bring all that ink back home or to the office and before you even shell out your cash, you should read the ink’s terms of warranty and also the store’s return policy.
Buy in bulk if you have the budget and space for the extra cartridges. Just make sure you check shelf life of each of the cartridges. Knowing the expiry dates helps you plan the usage of the extra ink. If buying in large quantities is not for you, you can check out multipacks and dual packs which typically offer the ink cartridges at reduced prices. If you will be printing out large volumes of materials, your best bet are high yield R2880 ink cartridges.
