Why
should you trust us ?
Hefger Media is primarily a high end
printing shop. We ourselves use this ink on a regular basis, when
printing for
museums, expositions, artists (giclees) and professionnal
photographers. We
could not afford to print with an ink that is not of the highest
quality and
risk to loose customers... we would not live very long doing so. This
is why
when you buy our XL ink, you know you are buying one of the best ink
available
on the market today.
Our guarrantee
1. On cartridges and chips
: guarranteed as long as you use our ink.
2. On ink ?
Simple : if you don't like it, we replace it with HP OEM for
free ;
3. Your printheads ?
If you ever have a major
problem with a printhead, we will exchange it with one that had
equivalent usage time and
performance status at time of purchase. This guarrantee is

purchase, weather or not the printhead is still under HP

The story of the XL ink
Until
May 2009, our
standard ink
was
the best alternative and the closest to HP
we could have. However, many
customers (professional
photographs and photo artists)
are extremely high demanding people
and they asked for the lowest Dmax
value possible and for a wider grey scale with tones as
neutral as possible.
We listen to them, worked
hard with our manufacturer, and we are
now able to offer this XL ink which we believe to
be of the
highest
quality available on the market today, among third party inks. Wether
you are considering color reliability, fastness,
safety for your printheads, compatibility with all printers that use
the HP Vivera ink, this ink will give you full
satisfaction,
guarranteed.
Regarding
grey scale
neutrality, we offer you an ink that has almost no color
shift, which
means pure greys that contain practically no red, blue, green or yellow
shift.
For
those who loves figures, our XL ink does not
exceed 0
to -1
on the "a"
axis of the L*a*b
mesurement method, and 0 to -4 on the "b" axis ("1" being the lowest value visible by an
average human eye, on a 100 degrees scale. We compare positively to HP.
Dmax is now at 2.3 (Maximum
Darkness - Hp claim 2.5). Color
fastness is 200 years (fading
resistance)
