Product Details
The world of photography is changing. Now there's a printer that offers photographers a level of quality and flexibility that's more than a match for the lab or darkroom. The Epson Stylus Photo R800 is a desktop photo printing solution that produces supreme archival quality matte or gloss prints, while you retain all the creative control that makes your vision unique.
When it comes to bringing unique ideas to life, photographers have extremely high standards. Traditionally, these have only been met by photo labs or complex darkroom processing. Now it's time to step out of the darkroom and put your trust in Epson, the recognized photo printing experts.
Quality, flexibility and efficiency are built in. The eight-cartridge system includes Red and Blue inks which create a color gamut rivaling that of silver halide and adds depth to natural colors such as sky, sea, sunsets and autumn leaves. At the same time, the latest Epson UltraChrome Hi-Gloss pigment inks recreate perfect tones that will be lightfast for up to 80 years.
Photos and reprints look superb, even when enlarged up to borderless A4 size, because this printer can achieve an amazing resolution of up to 5760 optimized dpi on suitable media. At the same time, the finest detail is achieved and fast print speeds maintained by using a range of dot sizes, including a minute droplet of just 1.5 picoliters.
Epson's dedication to satisfying photo experts is underlined by the development of Epson Gloss Optimizer technology. This is a fine-tuning tool designed for optimizing highly durable gloss pigment ink prints. The photographic result is a smooth and even gloss finish, comparable to silver halide, but with a longer lifetime.
Also, the finest results are achieved on both Matte or Gloss media, because the printer features two different blacks that optimize performance for each, automatically applied by the driver when you select paper type. Of course, the ability to replace each individual cartridge also maximizes cost efficiency.
The digital format has revolutionized photography, but the thrill of watching your photos emerge from your printer is just as rewarding as it was in your darkroom. However, now you can experience the same emotions, but in the daylight.
Once connected to your computer you can perfect your images using on-screen photo editing software including Epson PhotoQuicker, an easy print layout tool. The digital format also lets you store your photos safely on your computer and print as many copies as you like, when you like, in a huge variety of formats.
With Epson, make a seamless transition into the digital world, and bring your back catalog along too. With an Epson scanner such as the Epson Perfection 4870 Photo, scan, edit and even restore old film and photos. Whether originals were captured on film or digital camera, the Epson Stylus Photo R800 produces superb results, and you can even print directly onto CD faces and create truly personalized archives.
