A specific dye set for formulating yellow, cyan, magenta, and black inks comprises Direct Yellow 132, at least one other yellow dye, Direct Blue 199, a magenta dye comprising a dye having the structure , and, optionally, Pacified Reactive Black 31, respectively. The dye set provides excellent ink-jet prints having excellent lightfastness when exposed to office light, excellent imaging onto glossy inkjet media, and large color gamut which substantially encompasses the color space for a silver halide reference print. The aqueous inks each comprise from about 0.1 to about 5 wt % of at least one dye with the black ink comprising from about 0.5 to about 5 wt % of at least one colorant; from about 5 to about 20 wt % of at least one organic solvent; 0 to about 1.5 wt % of at least one component independently selected from the group consisting of surfactants, buffers, biocides, and metal chelators; and the balance water.
