Tinteiro Canon PGI-72CO transparente (Chroma Optimiser)

The Chroma Optimizer clear ink from the professional LUCIA ink range improves surface uniformity and enhances gloss while expanding the printable colour gamut and deepening black tones. This pigment-based clear ink is applied over colour inks to achieve uniform gloss and more consistent output. The 14 ml ink tank yields approximately 165 prints at 10×15 cm or about 31 prints at A3+ size based on the ISO/IEC 29102 standard.

Advantages

Chroma Optimizer produces more even gloss across prints, increases apparent colour richness by widening the gamut, and deepens black reproduction for stronger contrast. Being pigment-based, it is compatible with the LUCIA ink workflow and is applied as an overcoat on colour layers. The 14 ml tank format provides predictable yield figures under the ISO/IEC 29102 testing method.

How to use

Install the 14 ml Chroma Optimizer tank according to your printer manufacturer’s instructions for LUCIA inks.

Replace the tank when the printer indicates low ink or when print quality degrades.

Recommendations

Use media and printer settings specified for LUCIA ink systems to ensure compatibility. For consistent gloss and colour performance, allow prints to dry and cure according to the paper manufacturer’s guidance before handling or finishing.
