Epson engineered the 157 Light Black 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 light black to be of photo quality. The deepness of your shadows can set the mood for what your picture is saying. Create phenomenal monochrome prints with Epson’s three-level black technology. You will be sure to get the exact degree of black that your picture requires. Control your prints with the Epson advanced tones.

I use the Epson 157 ink cartridges in my Epson R3000, a wide-format printer that gives professional enlargements. The only downside — which is true of all good photo printers — is the cost of the ink. (There are 9 cartridges.) Currently, B&H is reducing the prices! Also, B&H has a quick, efficient website and the ordering process is fast and user-friendly.

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

I use the genuine Epson ink for making fine art prints. the quality of the prints are excellent. I have experienced a couple of dysfunctional cartridges that were replaced free of charge. the ink is very expensive. there are substitutes for this ink but I don’t print in high volume so I don’t think they would work for me.I want trouble free printing.

I’m a professional artist who works in multi-media sculpture, photography and painting. My most frequent use is to make photo prints of my paintings, business and exhibition announcement cards. True rendition of color is the name of the game for me. I’ve only had my R3000 about a month and can’t find any complaint about its ability to produce a high quality fine art color print. But the ink cartridge stinks in terms of getting a lot of use out of it. Machine is an ink pig!

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.

As expected from Epson, working well. Good expiration date. But expensive when you consider wasted ink for priming
