Description
T0961 Photo Black Cartridge
The Epson T0961 photo black cartridge delivers dense neutral blacks for fine-art and proofing workflows on the Stylus Photo R2880.
Epson engineered this single-cartridge unit with UltraChrome K3 pigment chemistry. The formulation targets deep shadow detail without color cast in monochrome and mixed-media prints. Each 11.4 ml reservoir supports controlled ink laydown across gloss, luster, and matte photo stocks.
Photo black in the K3 set handles the primary black channel on R2880 print heads. It pairs with light black and the color set for smooth tonal ramps from highlight to deep shadow. Procurement teams can stock this SKU independently when black consumption outpaces other channels.
The MicroPiezo head on the R2880 fires variable droplet sizes through dedicated photo black nozzles. ICC profiles built for this ink channel maintain Delta E targets during contract proofing runs. Run nozzle checks weekly on high-volume presses to catch depletion before banding appears in shadow blocks.
Store unopened units at 15 to 35 degrees Celsius away from direct UV exposure. The chip on each cartridge reports remaining volume to the driver and SNMP monitoring agents on networked installs.

Genuine T0961 photo black slots straight into my R2880. Deep blacks on cotton rag, no banding on the test prints we ran last week.

We run a small print bureau in Westlands and this UltraChrome K3 photo black holds up well on exhibition prints. The 11.4ml cartridge is modest in size but the pigment density is excellent for monochrome and dark shadow work on the Stylus Photo R2880.
Obadiah Otieno (verified owner) –
Had been chasing third-party refills for my Stylus Photo R2880 until a colleague at a Nairobi photo meet-up suggested sticking with original Epson T0961. The photo black comes out with proper weight in shadow areas — not the flat grey you get from cheaper substitutes. Litmus delivered within two days and the sealed pack matched what I expected from proper Epson stock. Worth the spend for client-facing fine art prints.

Good cartridge for portrait proofing in our studio. Photo black stays neutral under our office lighting and the K3 formula does not clog the heads. Price is on the higher side but acceptable for the quality we get.
