Epson T8006 UltraChrome PRO ink cartridge, Vivid Light Magenta, 700 ml

Vivid Light Magenta is a lighter version of magenta. Professional photo printers use light inks so that individual dark ink dots do not show in the light areas of an image – skin tones, skies, pastel surfaces. The light ink fills those areas more densely and evenly, so transitions stay soft and the image looks smooth even up close.

The cartridge holds 700 ml of ink. In large-format printers, where a single sheet uses far more ink than usual, a large cartridge means fewer changes and less risk of a long job being left unfinished. A page count cannot be derived from the volume, as consumption depends on image content, paper and print quality.

UltraChrome PRO is the ink system of Epson's professional printers, including the SureColor SC-P10000 and SC-P20000 listed as compatible. The ink type has to match the printer exactly, as a cartridge from a different ink system will not fit the same printer. Before installation, match the cartridge code T8006 or C13T80060N against your printer's ink list.

According to the manufacturer, the T8006 is compatible with the SureColor SC-P10000 and SC-P20000. No other models appear in the list of compatible printers, so for any other printer check the ink code in its manual. This is a genuine Epson cartridge and the pack contains a single cartridge, so you only replace the colour that has run out.

Photo studios, fine art print shops and sign shops running a SureColor SC-P10000 or SC-P20000; photographers printing large portraits and landscapes where light tones must stay smooth; and technicians who manage the printer's ink stock and prefer genuine consumables.
