This cartridge is designed for the Epson SureColor P906 professional photographic printer. Always confirm your printer model and cartridge number before ordering, as other Epson SureColor printers may require different ink cartridge ranges.
Violet Ink for Professional Photography
Violet ink is an important component of the Epson SureColor P906’s professional photographic ink system.
By incorporating a dedicated Violet ink alongside the printer’s other colours, the SureColor P906 can reproduce a wider range of colours, particularly in the blue-to-violet portion of the colour spectrum.
This is especially beneficial when printing:
- Landscape photographs featuring rich blue and purple skies
- Sunset and twilight photography
- Floral photography containing violet and purple tones
- Fine-art photographic reproductions
- Images with deep blue and violet colour transitions
- High-resolution photographs requiring accurate colour reproduction
The Violet cartridge contributes to vibrant photographic output while helping maintain smooth transitions between neighbouring colours.
Epson UltraChrome PRO10 Ink Technology
The Epson SureColor P906 uses a 10-colour UltraChrome PRO10 pigment ink system developed for professional photographic and fine-art printing.
The Violet cartridge helps extend the printer’s colour gamut, particularly in areas of the colour spectrum that can be challenging to reproduce using conventional ink combinations.
Working alongside the printer’s other ink colours, Violet ink supports detailed photographic output with rich colour reproduction and smooth tonal transitions.
Ink Capacity & Usage
Each Epson T47A Violet cartridge contains 50ml of ink.
Professional photographic ink cartridges are generally specified by ink volume rather than a fixed page yield.
Actual ink consumption depends on several factors, including:
- Print size, including A4, A3, A3+ and A2+
- Image content and colour coverage
- Photographs containing extensive violet, purple or blue areas
- Selected print quality and resolution
- Photographic or fine-art media type
- Printer maintenance and print-head cleaning
The number of prints achievable from a 50ml cartridge will vary according to the images being printed and the printer settings used.
Replacing Your Epson T47A Violet Cartridge
When your Epson SureColor P906 indicates that the Violet cartridge requires replacement:
- Keep the printer switched on and follow its cartridge replacement procedure.
- Open the cartridge access area as instructed.
- Remove the depleted Violet cartridge.
- Unpack the replacement cartridge only when ready to install it.
- Remove only the protective materials specified in Epson’s instructions.
- Insert the cartridge into the correct Violet position and ensure it is properly seated.
- Allow the printer to recognise the cartridge and complete any necessary preparation.
Avoid touching the cartridge’s electronic chip or ink supply areas during installation.
Always follow Epson’s supplied installation instructions.
Maintaining Professional Print Quality
Consistent nozzle performance is important when producing high-quality photographic prints.
If you notice banding, missing colours or uneven colour reproduction, use the printer’s built-in nozzle check before performing a print-head cleaning.
Only run cleaning cycles when necessary, as these procedures consume ink and contribute to maintenance cartridge usage.
Selecting the appropriate paper type, print quality and colour management settings can also help achieve consistent photographic results.
Printer Firmware Updates
Epson may periodically release firmware updates relating to printer functionality, maintenance, security and compatibility.
If the printer displays an unexpected cartridge recognition message following an update, check that the Violet cartridge is correctly installed and that the product code matches your printer’s requirements.
Refer to Epson’s official support resources for firmware updates and technical assistance.
Storage & Handling
Keep unused Epson T47A cartridges sealed in their original packaging until required.
Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
Avoid touching the electronic chip or ink supply port when handling cartridges, and follow Epson’s recommended storage and installation instructions.
