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 to dramatically reduce 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.

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
†
Data based on Epson Premium Luster Photo Paper (260)
Professional print permanence ratings for truly sellable quality prints
High-gloss Microcrystal Encapsulation
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 3.9
†
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
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
the optional Matte Black ink mode instead, will dramatically increase
black optical density for even better print quality.
