New Photo Printer

Evolution in the Epson printer line has been rather slow of late. In 13-inch models the Stylus Photo R3000 has been the top model since early 2011, and the highly respected Stylus Pro 3880 17-inch model harks back to the middle of 2009. But there’s a new “SureColor” line coming, the first of which will be the SC-P600 as announced at Photokina by Epson UK. The new “UltraChrome HD and Vivid Magenta” ink set is claimed to have an exceptionally wide color gamut and the highest black density of any Epson product. Hopefully more info will become available for the US market soon, but in the meantime you can find cursory descriptions at Northlight Images and DP Review.
