Going Large with Epson

The Epson Stylus Pro 9800 printer is widely acknowledged as the industry leading large format printer. Designed for the high-end-professional graphics and photo markets where quality, speed and economy are essential, this printer generates outstanding prints at sizes up to 44-inches (1,118mm) wide.

It can print up to size B0+ and is capable of printing on virtually any media type up to 1.5mm thick poster board making it ideal for canvas photo printing

Using unique breakthrough 8-colour ink technology known as UltraChrome K3, the final prints are of uncompromising quality. The 8 new colour pigments include a new 3-level black technology (hence the K3 in the name), which significantly increases the potential quality output for professional colour and black and white prints. According to Epson, these inks offer the widest colour gamut of any ink currently available on the marketplace. The addition of the third black ink now allows the Epson 9800 printer to produce true monochrome (black and white) inkjet prints.

Finished prints have an amazing integrity and depth of colour, high gloss and scratch resistance. This printer also produces professional neutral and toned black and white prints.

UltraChrome K3 ink offers outstanding durability, so prints are more likely to look good for longer on a wide range of paper types. The ink is highly light, gas and water resistant, resulting in a lifespan of up to 75 years in colour and over 100 years in black & white. This makes it the ideal choice for artists producing work for use in exhibitions or those who need to reassure their customers the artwork will look good for longer.

You may be forgiven for thinking that such quality comes at a price, however, high capacity individual ink cartridges offer low cost per print and ensure a high level of productivity with reliable overnight printing.
