Since specific formulation may be extremely important here, I don't
think using any name or designation loosely is in order in this case.

Ultrachrome is a trademark of Epson and refers to a specific ink. What
MIS supplies as a replacement for Epsons that use Ultrachrome is not
necessarily the same thing as Ultrachrome. After all, part of the idea
is cheaper ink, but more so is improved characteristics compared to
most of Epson's older inksets.
