Durabrite ultra ink is a pigment-based ink technology that gives you more vivid pictures and less worries. Being pigment-based, does not require water solubility, so the ink dries faster than other types of ink. Durabrite ink does not bleed which allows you to double-sided prints more easily. The ink is also smudge resistant so your pictures won’t be ruined as you share them with others. One big advantage is that it comes in individual ink cartridges for black ink and for the usual cyan, magenta, and yellow cartridges packaged as tri-color ink. This allows you simply replace an individual cartridge as opposed to dealing without that color until you replace the entire cartridge. Each cartridge is also available in a high-capacity cartridge for a business or home office. However, one disadvantage is that these cartridges have a history of clogging. Another disadvantage is to get the best quality, this ink should be used with Epson photo paper.
