Print Head Technology from the Future All-new 9-channel MicroPiezo TFP Print Head Print head design capable of handling nine separate ink channels 1-inch wide, high-performance print head, with 360 nozzles per channel Low vibration meniscus control, for highly accurate dot shape and placement All-new ink repelling coating for reduced nozzle clogging All-new Epson AccuPhoto HD Screening Radical screening algorithm resulting in prints with superior color and clarity Maximum resolution of 2880 x1440 dpi for incredibly sharp text and line art Extremely accurate fine blends and photographic transitions Variable-sized Droplet with TFP Technology Produces variable-sized droplets as small as 3.5 picoliters, to greatly decrease print times while optimizing photographic quality Exotic Thin Film Piezo (TFP) along with Low Vibration Meniscus Control technology, precisely controls the curvature of every ink droplet within each nozzle before releasing it onto the media. The result is extremely sharp and accurate placement of ink droplets for class-leading photographic print quality. Epson PreciseColor™ Manufacturing In order to ensure consistent printing between multiple Stylus Pro printers of the same model, Epson has enhanced the manufacturing process to include colorimetric calibration. Eliminating the need for internal calibration devices, this system evaluates and adjusts each printer's performance at the manufacturing stage, producing consistent color output from printer to printer. Automatic Print Head Alignment Built-in sensor reads printed data for highly precise alignment of all color channels Aligns both single and bi-directional print modes Automatic Nozzle Verification and Cleaning Built-in sensor quickly verifies nozzle status without using media and can automatically clean the print head if required - even partially clogged nozzles Epson UltraChrome K3 with Vivid Magenta Ink Technology Industry Defining 8-color Pigment-Based Ink System High-density pigments for an extremely wide color gamut Advanced formulation of Magenta pigments for extreme blues and purples Professional print permanence ratings for truly sellable quality prints High-gloss Microcrystal Encapsulation™ Technology for reduced gloss differential Superior scratch resistance from improved pigment and resin chemistry Color is stable immediately after printing - no short-term color shifting Depending upon media - produces a black density up to 2.5 with an L* value of 2.9† Three -level Black Ink Technology Simultaneously uses Black, Light Black, and Light Light Black inks Significantly improves the printer's gray balance while eliminating color casts Outstanding midtones and highlights for a smoother tonal range Virtually eliminates the metamerism and bronzing of basic pigment chemistry Enhances the ICC profiling process for ColorSync™ and ICM™ workflows Automatic Real-time Black Ink Mode Switching Printers can automatically utilize two different Black ink modes - Photo Black or Matte Black. This innovative solution optimizes the Black ink density for various media types, dramatically improving the final print quality. The standard Photo Black ink mode can be used for any media type with professional results. However, for certain Epson media types such as Velvet Fine Art, Enhanced Matte, and UltraSmooth® Fine Art, using the optional Matte Black ink mode instead, will dramatically increase black optical density for even better print quality.
