The Epson Stylus Photo R1900 Gloss Optimizer Ink Cartridge is a specialized ink designed to enhance the glossy finish of your prints. It is part of the UltraChrome Hi-Gloss2 ink system and helps produce prints with a smooth, even gloss, especially for photographs and color documents that require high shine and vivid details.

Key Features:

• Type: Gloss optimizer (Clear ink) designed to provide a uniform gloss finish for your prints. It doesn’t add any color to the image, but rather improves the gloss level and the texture.

• Compatibility: Exclusively designed for the Epson Stylus Photo R1900 printer, which is known for its high-quality photo printing and advanced ink technology.

• Page Yield: Typically, the gloss optimizer ink cartridge yields a similar number of prints as the color cartridges (about 400–500 pages at 5% coverage), but this can vary depending on print settings and usage.

• Print Quality: The gloss optimizer enhances prints by ensuring that glossy media retains an even finish without any inconsistencies in sheen. It helps prevent gloss differential (where some areas of a photo are shinier than others) and protects prints from finger marks.

• Technology: Utilizes UltraChrome Hi-Gloss2 technology, which helps maintain print longevity, and creates rich, vibrant color output with an even, durable gloss on glossy photo paper.

• Environmental Considerations: Epson employs environmentally friendly manufacturing processes and offers recycling options for used ink cartridges.

Advantages:

• Improved Gloss Finish: Perfect for creating professional-level photo prints with a uniform, smooth gloss on glossy photo paper.

• Enhanced Durability: The gloss optimizer protects the inkjet prints from smudges, fingerprints, and fading, ensuring long-lasting photo prints.

• Prevents Gloss Differential: Especially useful for preventing areas of the print from appearing more glossy than others, creating an even finish across the entire print.

• Great for Photographers: Ideal for photographers who need glossy photo prints with consistent color and gloss for portfolio presentations, gallery prints, or photo albums.

Common Applications:

• Photo Printing: Essential for users printing high-quality photos on glossy or semi-glossy paper.

• Art Prints: Useful for artists who want to maintain a consistent, high-gloss finish on their reproductions.

• Color Documents: Great for projects requiring a glossy look, such as marketing materials, brochures, and flyers with a high sheen.
