Simply fill the cartridge with our premium resin encapsulated Photo Pro Pigment inks and install as per genuine Epson cartridges.

This product is fitted with an auto reset ink level chip. Once a cartridge indicates empty, simply remove and refill. The ink level will automatically reset to full when re-inserting the ink cartridge. The cartridges can be installed one at a time and used in conjunction with original Epson ink cartridges allowing you to replace with refillable cartridges as you empty your old originals.

Resin encapsulation is a process where the pigment crystal is coated in a resin polymer. This technology prevents coagulation and settlement issues as it prevents agglomeration, the attraction of electrically charged particles. It also prevents the crystals from catching and bonding which is an issue with traditional pigment inks. The resin coat allows them to roll of each other creating a smooth flowing ink with even particle distribution.

A greater colour gamut (increased colour range) is achieved as the pigment particles are not clumped and thus are more evenly distributed when in suspension. Because of this, Rihac Photo Pro inks are suitable for printing on resin coated glossy media which can produce prints of near equal vividness of dye inks. The resin also acts as a bonding agent for the papers allowing the inks to adhere to the surface making the prints far more scratch resistant than other inks. Light fastness is increased due to two primary factors. Firstly the dispersions already have an outstanding fade rating as per the DIN 54004 scale but also the resin protects the pigment particles minimizing UV light damage.
