<>Epson Unveils Stylus Photo R800 Inkjet
Printer Epson has launched the Stylus Photo R800 inkjet printer in the local market.
>
The printer won the 2004 Technical Imaging Press Association European Photo
and Imaging Award for best inkjet photo printer. It’s equipped with UltraChrome
Hi-Gloss inks and gloss optimiser features.
It is also the first printer to incorporate two new ink colors (red and
blue), giving it a color gamut that is high for any inkjet printer, the company
said. The UltraChrome Hi-Gloss ink has a denser transparent resin encasing the
color pigment than in previous inks. The company said that this produces a
smooth, super-fine finish with reflective characteristics.
The ink set includes eight individual cartridges. The printer allows the user
to keep the photo black and matte black ink cartridges in the printer at all
times and the printer driver determines which black ink to use based on paper
type selection.
The gloss optimiser keeps the surface even, in this case by filling up the
spaces where there is no ink laid down.
Among its other highlights, the Stylus Photo R800 allows customization of CD
and DVD label designs. It can also print continuous strips of roll paper in
widths of 100mm and 210mm so as not to mar the beauty of a panoramic shot.
The printer is available at an MRP of Rs 26,985.
