Lyson Bulk Ink System Epson 1290 Printer

- Full Technical Back up.
The Epson 1290 is a reliable printer often favoured by amateur photographers. However one colour cartridge encompasses the entire channels. This means that once any of the the colours has been exhausted, the entire colour cartridge has to be discarded leading to lots of waste and expense. The Lyson Continuous Bulk ink system solves this problem and reduces ink costs by 80% at the same time. The Lyson inks for the 1290 also offer the photographer a much wider colour gamut. For the consumer its a win win situation.
Sorry 1290 CIS now discontinued by Lyson - ink refills still available.

The Lyson bulk continuous ink system is available with 3 different ink combinations:
Fotonic XG
The Lyson Fotonic XGink for the Epson 1290 is a dye based compound, while the archival properties of dye based inks are less than that of pigment based inks, the colour range is wider.
Available in:
Bulk bottles for Continuous ink Systems »
Single cartridges for low volume users »
Lyson Small Gamut inks offer an unique way to create fantastic monochrome prints. As the photographer would expect, totally neutral prints can be created. But the Lyson Small Gamut ink set goes far beyond this, using advanced ink technology the photographer is able to adjust the hue of the image allowing gentle changes to be applied to alter the tone of either the overall print or just selected sections.
Available in:
Bulk bottles for Continuous ink Systems »
Single cartridges for low volume users »
While the Lyson Quad Black ink set for the Epson 1290 does produce nice black and white prints, it does not really offer the same benefits or results as the Small Gamut. We therefore recommend the Small Gamut inks over the Quad Black.

The Lyson cleaning cartridges for the Epson 2100 are the ideal way to flush out inks that may be incompatible with Lyson, it is recommended that these cleaning cartridges be used before switching to Lyson inks.

Lyson Small Gamut Inks
The Epson 1290 makes a fantastic dedicated monochrome printer when used in conjunction with the Lyson Small Gamut ink set. The quality of the prints are truly amazing, blacks are deep and rich while the tonal gradients are smooth. But, there is more to the small gamut ink set than that. Each black has a small dilution of colour and by using Photoshop, the Photographer is able to change the hue of the image to any colour value, allowing the photographer to change the mood of the image as required.
