Epson Claria photographic ink represents a major breakthrough in
dye-based inkjet printing technology. Not only does it support a wider
colour gamut than traditional photo-printing technologies, it is far more
resistant to fading than previous dye-based inks. As a result, it offers print
quality that rivals that of traditional photo printing.
Claria photographic ink has an expanded colour
gamut with much richer blues and greens than the
standard sRGB colour space, and can render them
much more vividly than traditional photo printing
methods. It also offers more deeply saturated
yellows than previous EPSON dye-based inks.

Richer blues and greens than sRGB
The Stylus Photo 1400 Claria photographic ink has a
wider gamut than sRGB, with a particularly rich
palette of blue and green colour tones.

Fade-resistance at a molecular level
Previous dye-based ink molecules
contained fewer atoms, and
colours would fade because light
and ozone or other oxidized
gasses could destroy the bonds
between the atoms.
The dye molecules in Claria ink
are made up of more atoms. This
ensures that the bonds between
the individual atoms are stronger,
and makes the molecules more
resistant to damage.
Claria ink dye molecules are
further protected by atomic
shields and aggregated into
strong, dense clusters. The result
is rich, vibrant, fade-resistant
colour and significantly extended
print life.
Separate cartridges for cyan, light cyan, magenta, light
magenta, yellow, and black inks reduce waste by
allowing individual cartridge replacement.
The Stylus Photo 1400 is equipped with separate
ink cartridges for each of its six colours: cyan, light
cyan, magenta, light magenta, yellow, and black.
Because the cartridges can be replaced
individually, the Stylus Photo 1400 offers much
more cost-efficient operation than printers that use
a single cartridge for all colours.
Conceptual representation of molecular structure
Claria photographic ink has been
strengthened at a molecular level, making
it extremely resistant to the fading that is
caused by light and oxidised gasses such
as ozone. Compared to photo prints
made with previous dye-based inks,
Claria ink photo prints retain their
beauty longer under a wide range
of conditions. Their potential album
storage life is estimated at up to
200 years.*
