Notes:

* Price is MSRP before any applicable rebates. Reseller prices may vary. All prices are in U.S. Dollars.

1 Ink lightfastness rating based on accelerated testing of prints on specialty media, displayed indoors, under glass. Actual print stability will vary according to media, printed image, display conditions, light intensity, humidity and atmospheric conditions. Epson does not guarantee longevity of prints. For maximum print life, display all prints under glass or lamination or properly store them. Visit www.wilhelm-research.com for the latest information.

2 Print times are based upon print engine speeds only. Total throughput depends upon front-end driver/RIP, file size, printing resolution, ink coverage, network speed, etc. Normal is for prints imaged using 1440 x 720 high-speed mode.

3 Ink used in conversion varies considerably based on temperature and other factors.

4 Cartridge yields vary considerably based on images printed, print settings, paper type, frequency of use and temperature. For print quality, a variable amount of ink remains in the cartridge after the “replace cartridge” indicator comes on. The printer ships with full cartridges and part of the ink from the first cartridges is used for priming the printer.

5 High-volume cutting of canvas and heavy media stocks may require frequent cutter replacement.

6 Allowed by printer driver for Mac® and PC. Application, version of application and operating system version may limit maximum length.
