Transforming Talent into Imagery
The ideas from thousands of Creative Professionals are built into every Epson Stylus® Pro printer. As a result, the Epson Stylus® Pro 4000 Series has become the standard within the world's greatest design studios, photographic labs, and commercial print shops. And the tradition continues.
Introducing the New Epson Stylus Pro 4880
Designed to meet the needs of the most demanding professionals, the Epson Stylus Pro 4880 incorporates a unique, 17-inch wide printer design with a breakthrough, new ink technology, forcing the industry to reconsider what's possible from photographic ink jet printing.
Epson UltraChrome K3 is the standard by which all other professional level ink technologies are judged. Now enhanced with our breakthrough Vivid Magenta pigments, our current 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 accuracy, 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, with virtually no metamerism or bronzing.
With an even higher level of ink droplet accuracy, we've developed an all-new MicroPiezo AMC print head, along with an all-new ink repelling coating technology to dramatically reduce nozzle clogging. And, when combined with our new Epson AccuPhoto HD screening technology, at an astonishing resolution of 2880 x 1440 dpi, Epson has once again raised the level of image quality - even exceeding our previous best.
Handling virtually any media type in roll or cut-sheet up to 17-inch wide, the Epson Stylus Pro 4880 incorporates a high-capacity paper tray capable of handling cut-sheet media up to 17" x 22". We even incorporated four different ways to load media, including a front-loading straight-through path capable of handling media up to 1.5 mm thick, giving you the ultimate in media flexibility.
The Epson Stylus Pro 4880 represents a level of technology unprecedented in Epson's history. By combining the extreme precision of an Epson Stylus Pro print engine, along with the extraordinary performance of Epson UltraChrome K3 ink technology, Epson has once again transforming talent into imagery.
