Epson Stylus Pro 7880 Printer
Epson is never fully satisfied with the printing technology we introduce. We never stop thinking. They never stop experimenting. And after they?ve finally developed the best printing technology possible, they pushed ourselves to make it even better.

Introducing the new Epson Stylus Pro 7880 A true evolution of Epson's past-generation of photographic printing technology, Epson's latest 24-inch (Epson Stylus Pro 7880)professional wide-format printer incorporates forward-thinking designs, with a newly enhanced 8-color ink technology, resulting in a final print of uncompromising quality.

Epson UltraChrome K3? is the standard by which all other professionallevel ink technologies are judged. Now enhanced with breakthrough new Vivid Magenta pigments, Epson's newest-generation ink technology requires only eight colors, including a three-level black technology, to significantly raise the quality levels for professional color and black-and-white prints.

Imagine producing archival prints with amazing color fidelity, gloss level, and scratch resistance, while providing consistently stable colors that significantly outperform lesser ink technologies. Imagine producing professional neutral and toned black-and-white prints with even higher density levels, along with virtually no metamerism or bronzing.

With an even higher level of ink droplet accuracy, Epson has developed an allnew MicroPiezo® AMC? print head, along with an all-new ink repelling coating technology to dramatically reduce nozzle clogging. And, when combined with Epson's new AccuPhoto?HD screening technology, at an astonishing resolution of 2880 x 1440 dpi, Epson has once again raised the level of image quality.

Capable of handling virtually any media type, in roll or cut-sheet, up to 24-inch or 44-inch wide, Epson sets the standard for professional media use. Whether you?re producing sellable color or black-and-white photography, fine art reproduction, or producing color accurate proofs for client approvals, never before have Creative Professionals had such a powerful tool, allowing them to produce their vision without compromise.

Epson's latest wide-format printers continue to represent a level of technology unprecedented in their history. Combining the extreme precision of an Epson Stylus Pro print engine, along with the extraordinary performance of Epson's latest Epson UltraChrome K3 ink technology, Epson continues to redefine the future of wide-format printing.
