Epson T6735 Light Cyan Ink Bottle is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 2,400, brand new and sealed with 70ml of genuine dye-based Epson ink. The Epson T6735 Light Cyan Ink Bottle fills the pale blue tank on the Epson L800, L805, L810, L850 and L1800, Epson's six-colour photo ink tank printers. Epson code C13T67354A on the box identifies the genuine product. At that price, each millilitre of ink costs roughly KSh 34. Collect a bottle from Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Photo studios, passport and ID photo kiosks around Nairobi CBD, and photography students printing portfolios depend on this bottle more than most buyers realise. The Epson T6735 Light Cyan Ink Bottle handles the pale end of the blue range: a clear morning sky, a calm lagoon, the cool grey under a chin. Without it, a printer builds those areas from scattered dots of full-strength cyan, and the page looks speckled up close. With a full light cyan tank, the same tones print as smooth, continuous washes that survive a client's close inspection.
Four-colour ink tank printers cannot match that smoothness, which is why serious studios keep an L805 or L1800 for photo work. Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that stock only the fast-moving black bottle, Mascom International keeps all six T673 colours on the shelf. A studio can restock the Epson T6735 Light Cyan Ink Bottle and its five partners in one visit. Photographers who print weekly tell us the difference shows most in skies and skin, where clients look first. Walk in to check the seal and code yourself, or order the Epson T6735 Light Cyan Ink Bottle on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery.
Common Questions About the Epson T6735 Light Cyan Ink Bottle
What does the Epson T6735 Light Cyan ink actually do in a photo?
The Epson T6735 Light Cyan ink prints pale blue and cool grey tones that full-strength cyan would show as visible dots. Light cyan is a diluted cyan, so the printer can lay down many more droplets in a pale area without darkening it. Those extra droplets blend into a smooth wash instead of a speckled pattern. You see the result in skies that fade evenly toward the horizon, shallow seas at Diani shifting gently from turquoise to white, and soft blue-grey shadows on faces and fabric.
Can I pour Cyan ink into the Light Cyan tank on my Epson printer?
No, the Epson T6735 Light Cyan and the T6732 Cyan are not interchangeable, and mixing them ruins colour accuracy. The printer driver calculates every photo assuming the light cyan tank holds diluted ink. Put full-strength cyan there and pale blues, skies and shadows print far too dark and heavy. Pour light cyan into the cyan tank and deep blues turn weak and washed out. Once the wrong ink enters the tank and tubes, flushing it out wastes ink and time. Read the label twice before opening any bottle.
Is a six-colour printer using the Epson T6735 better for photos than a four-colour Epson L3250?
Yes, for photographs a six-colour Epson L805 or L1800 running the Epson T6735 prints smoother results than a four-colour Epson L3250. The L3250 builds every colour from black, cyan, magenta and yellow alone, so pale tones show more dot grain on close viewing. The six-colour machines add light cyan and light magenta, which fill skies and skin with finer, lighter droplets. For forms, letters and text, the L3250 is the cheaper and more sensible choice. For prints a client holds in their hands, six colours win.
Does the Epson T6735 improve passport and ID photos printed in Nairobi CBD?
Yes, a full Epson T6735 Light Cyan tank helps passport and ID photos print with cleaner backgrounds and more natural shadows. Pale backgrounds are exactly where four-colour printing shows grain, and small photos magnify the problem because every millimetre of the face matters. Light cyan softens the blue-grey shading around eyes, jawlines and collars, so the face looks even rather than blotchy. Kiosks along Moi Avenue and Kimathi Street printing dozens of small photos daily get more consistent results when this tank stays topped up.
How does the Epson T6735 hold up through Nairobi dust and power cuts?
The Epson T6735 ink itself is unaffected by a power cut, while dust and long idle spells are what actually hurt print quality. A blackout mid-print usually costs one sheet of photo paper, not the ink. Keep the tank caps closed and the printer covered, because street dust settles on open fill ports and the paper path. If the printer sits unused for weeks during a slow season, run a nozzle check before printing client photos, since faint light cyan banding is easy to miss until the print finishes.
How can photography students get portfolio-quality prints with the Epson T6735?
Photography students get the best from the Epson T6735 by pairing it with genuine glossy photo paper and the matching paper setting in the Epson driver. The driver uses light cyan most effectively when it knows it is printing on photo paper at high quality. Plain-paper settings favour speed over fine gradation, so skies and shadows lose their smoothness. Students at the University of Nairobi, Kenyatta University and KIMC preparing assessment portfolios should print a small test strip first, checking skies and shadows before committing a full sheet.
Which printers accept the Epson T6735, and will it fit an L805 bought in Kenya?
The Epson T6735 fits the Epson L800, L805, L810, L850 and L1800, the five six-colour ink tank models Epson lists for the T673 series. Any of those printers sold in Kenya accepts it, including L805 units bought from other shops. It will not work in four-colour models such as the L3210 or L3250, which have no light cyan tank at all. The newer Epson L8050 and L18050 use a different bottle series, so owners of those models should ask Mascom International for the matching ink.
Who should buy the Epson T6735 and who should skip it?
Buy the Epson T6735 if you own an L800-series or L1800 printer and print photos that people will study closely. Studios, event photographers, passport kiosks and students building portfolios all fall into that group. Skip it if your printer handles documents only, or if it is a four-colour model, because there is nowhere to put this ink. Offices printing letters and school forms get better value from a four-colour Epson L3250, which Mascom International can supply alongside its own ink bottles.
Technical Specifications
Ink Formula and Colour Role
- Colour: Light Cyan, a diluted cyan that prints pale blues and cool greys without visible dot patterns on paper.
- Ink type: dye-based, which soaks into glossy photo paper for vivid colour and smooth, continuous tonal transitions.
- Volume: 70ml per bottle, the standard size Epson sells for every colour in the six-bottle T673 series.
- Product code: C13T67354A, the Epson reference printed on genuine boxes, which makes stock checks and reorders simple.
- Set position: one of six inks alongside black, cyan, magenta, yellow and light magenta for full photo colour.
Printer Compatibility
- Epson L800: the original six-colour photo ink tank printer, filled directly from this bottle with no adapters needed.
- Epson L805: adds Wi-Fi printing from phones, which makes it popular with studios and passport photo kiosks.
- Epson L810 and L850: both run the full T673 set, with the L850 adding scanning and copying functions.
- Epson L1800: an A3+ photo printer for large portfolio prints and exhibition work, using this same bottle.
- Not compatible: four-colour Epson models such as the L3210 and L3250, which have no light cyan tank.
- Not compatible: the newer six-colour L8050 and L18050, which take a different Epson bottle series entirely.
Gradient and Photo Quality
- Reduces visible grain in pale areas, where isolated full-strength cyan droplets would otherwise stand out against white paper.
- Smooths sky gradients so the blue fades evenly from the top of the frame down toward the horizon line.
- Softens blue-grey shadows under chins, eyes and collars on portraits, making faces look even rather than blotchy.
- Keeps shallow water, mist and overcast mornings looking continuous rather than dotted on standard 10x15cm photo prints.
- Works together with light magenta to render skin tones and pastel colours cleanly on glossy and lustre paper.
Consumables and Running Cost
- Price: KSh 2,400 for 70ml, which works out to roughly KSh 34 for every millilitre of genuine ink.
- Yield: Epson quotes up to 1,900 photos at 10x15cm from a six-colour set, depending on printer and usage.
- Usage pattern: light cyan consumption rises with landscapes, seascapes and portraits, and falls sharply for text and graphics.
- Print head protection: genuine ink keeps the head working properly, and a head costs far more than any bottle.
- Studio planning: keep one spare bottle on hand so a busy photo session never stops halfway through an order.
Bottle Design and Filling
- Sealed bottle with a cap and inner seal that you remove only just before filling the printer tank.
- Clear Light Cyan labelling with the T6735 code, so staff can tell it apart from the T6732 Cyan quickly.
- Fill slowly with the printer standing on a level surface to prevent spills around the tank fill ports.
- Replace the tank cap immediately after filling, keeping dust out of the ink supply and the delivery tubes.
- Wipe any drips from the tank area with a dry tissue before closing the tank unit cover again.
Stock Handling and Care
- Keep sealed bottles upright inside their boxes until needed, protecting both the seal and the printed label.
- Use an opened bottle promptly rather than leaving it half-full on a shelf for months at a time.
- Store bottles out of reach of children, because dye ink stains fabric, skin and school uniforms permanently.
- Rotate stock so older bottles go into the printer first, especially in kiosks buying several bottles together.
- Keep the empty box, since its code and colour name help anyone reorder exactly the right bottle later.
