64-inch large format colour printer
EPSON's new 64-inch Stylus Pro 11880 large format printer with UltraChrome K3 ink with Vivid Magenta sets a benchmark for print quality combined with fast print speeds for colour critical printing applications.
Several new productivity enhancing features make the Stylus Pro 11880 one of the fastest and easiest to use photo quality large format printers on the market.
These include the new MicroPiezo TFP (Thin Film Piezo) print head with 360 nozzles for each of the nine ink cartridges, active photo and matte black inks, high capacity 700ml ink cartridges, professional media handling capabilities from A4 to 64 inch wide rolls.
The Stylus Pro 11880 is the first Epson printer to have the MicroPiezo TFP (thin film piezo) print head, with 360 nozzles per inch for each of the nine active ink cartridges.
It has been finely tuned with the new UltraChrome K3 ink with Vivid Magenta to precisely control dot shape, size and placement for the highest image quality possible.
Epson's ink repelling coating for the printhead, and automatic nozzle check, combine to eliminate down time by minimising and detecting nozzle clogging before it becomes serious, and to eliminate paper waste during the cleaning process.
It uses a sensor near the print head that counts the electrical charges on the ink droplets as they are fired. A lower than expected electrical charge means insufficient ink was fired, so the print head cleaning process automatically starts.
Because both photo and matte black inks are mounted and active, users save time and money as the printer immediately, and automatically, switches between the two black ink modes as required.
Each of the nine UltraChrome K3 cartridges (including photo and matte black) has its own individual 360 dpi nozzle set on the printhead so the Stylus Pro 11880 does not need time to switch between photo and matte black.
High capacity 700 ml ink cartridges ensure the printer can run unattended to complete long print jobs.
The Stylus Pro 11880 can print a barcode and text on partially used paper rolls to record how much paper is left and what type of media it is, allowing users to confidently switch between paper types and rolls for different jobs.
The Stylus Pro 11880 comes with USB2.0 and Gigabit Ethernet as standard interfaces.
