Pigmera GX inks for P900 - recommendations?

[Dragokazov]

Hi all,

I am researching the real user feedback about Pigmera GX for Epson P700/P900. I am thinking about purchasing the Pigmera inks for a long time (even before I purchased P900 2 months ago), but I have generally very bad experience with "compatible" or "alternative" inks and toners. Almost every time I`ve tried something called compatible, it sucked, was broken, broke, clogged, sucked again and so on. And because P900 is not a cheap printer and I would like to give/even maybe sell some of my own prints in the future (still learning, so maybe in farther future). I have concerns about the longevity, color stability and generally the color reproduction of these inks. They are definitively a lot cheaper than original, so this post is just if the price savings are worth it. there are no reviews of these inks on the Czech market nor on the internet at all (yes, one cool german set of videos, but my german sucks).

Thank you for all of your feedback.

I think Lothman on this forum uses Pigmera GX. I made profiles for him some time ago and I was really impressed by the blackness of their photo and matte black. The prints are very good and have a nice gloss and gamut is very good.

hehe, I think I agree with everything pharmacist said .

I bought a used p900 and compared the Farbenwerk Pigmera prints to the OEM inks which came with the printer and for me they are equal. Also zero problems with clogging since then. Before I had Inktec in a p800, also very good but the blacks of Farbenwerk are much darker. OK the Farbenwerk inkset is also considerably more expensive than was the Inktec set. So you get what you pay for.

P.S.: you can order test prints from Farbenwerk made with their inkset.

Hi! I saw your positive feedback about Pigmera GX on Printer Knowledge. I'm considering using Pigmera GX in my NEW Epson P900, but I'm concerned about that may air entering the ink system and causing all the nozzles of one color to stop working.

Could you tell me which cartridges you're using? Are they modified original Epson cartridges or third-party refillable cartridges?



Thanks for sharing your experience!

All pigments are made in China. What's the point of overpaying. If you really support a local manufacturer, then I choose EasyInks.
If you want to buy cheap and quality like the original I used WinerJet ink https://www.winnerjet.com/shop-by-printer/epson/
excellent pigment ink both in color and light resistance. Purchase just contact the employee via Whatsapp.
If for black and white printing only, then I choose EasyInks very neutral PK and dense.
https://www.easy-inks.de/ selling to a private person is possible, you just need to register as a private undertaking or a free artist.

And what does P900 have to do with it? Who said that there is ink only for P900. Epson piezo heads are versatile and can handle any ink. P900 can work on any ink.

My P900 says it doesn't work with just any ink set. Apparently, it's a little picky these days. It wants Violet. No Violet, no party!

The issue with the violet ink for the P900 has already been discussed earlier

I was about to post something similar as we've never seen any specific inks for the Violet colour and there's no P900 specific blends for colour matching either so it looks like this is very much a custom blend created by printout24.com ... and all credit to them for doing the work... Just a bit confusing when I get pinged for ink that isn't an official Inktec product.

I wonder where your colleague in France gets his (claimed Inktec) ink from:

The Aliexpress link with a violet ink is still active
