Summary: Not really worth it...
Review: ... I recently bought the Stylus 2200 (please read my review of it) and have found that the printing quality on Matte paper is just not as good as on photographic glossy or semi-glossy. While this cartridge does improve the color of blacks on Matte paper, the overall quality of prints on Matte is just not that good, so why bother with this if you are looking to make the best prints you can?

Summary: The Reason For Matte Black
Review: Due to the way inks are made Epson has found it necessary to micro-encapsulate the Photo Black ink. The reason for doing this was to allow the inks to better adhere to the glossy and semi-gloss. These same inks however will powder and rub of on other papers most notably the art type and matte. So Epson wisely created two black inks. How black these inks appear has nothing to do with which one is chosen. I measured a L value of 13.82 with my Photospectrometer not as dark as some other ink sets but still very good
