Epson engineered the 157 Vivid Magenta Ink Cartridge for the Epson R3000 Printer. Epson utilized their UltraChrome K3 technology to produce deeper, richer tones.
With fine art printing in the front of their minds, Epson developed vivid magenta to bring out the true colors of something as delicate as a flame. Epson’s advanced magenta pigments bring to life the browns and the reds of your prints. Control your prints with the Epson advanced tones.

No problem with this genuien Epson ink cartridge. Works perfectly fine in my Epson printer.

I give four stars because of the price, otherwise the K3 technology is great. The high price is an issue for all things inkjet these days, especially the high-end printers such as my R3000. The color spectrum is beautiful and the fade resistance of the prints is extraordinary too.

The 157 series inks are outstanding for their intensity and fastness to UV fading.

I have noticed lately that when I order ink from B&H the expiration (shelf-life) dates are sometimes nearly expired. Epson lists these inks as having a 2 year shelf life (unopened.) When I get them in I’m noticing I may have 18 months left or only have as little as 6 months left on that expectancy. I’m hoping that does not become a problem for me.

I simply LOVE my Epson Stylus Photo R3000 and these K3 inks are simply the best. They produce startlingly realistic color. I couldn’t be more pleased.

Genuine Epson cartridges are always reliable and B&H sells them with the lowest price and fastest delivery. I order from B&H for my school and for my professional fine art photography.

I thought light black was gray, but maybe it’s just light black. It goes with the other colors and seems to blend in well to get various tones.

Well this is light black, then there is light light black, I suppose there is clear, but then what’s the point? The light black helps to create tonal variations. Works fine.

I need to know that I can depend on the quality of the ink- it represents my work as a professional.
