Introducing the Epson Stylus Pro 7900 and 9900

In May Epson announced two new professional inkjet printers, the Stylus Pro 7900 (24”) and Stylus Pro 9900 (44”). Far from a simple update to the existing 7880 and 9880, these printers form a separate product line, with Epson continuing to produce the x880 series. The new models build upon the existing X880 series while intro- ducing some fairly innovative functionality. Many of the changes are focused on improving speed and reducing operating costs. At the same time Epson has expanded the color gamut with the new Ultrachrome HDR ink set featuring an orange and green ink. One very welcome change is that the new printers have been designed to allow both the Photo and Matte blacks to be loaded in the printer at all times, and switching between blacks is now a simple and quick process. The paper feed system has also been totally redesigned, including the cut- ter. Additionally, Epson is also offering an optional spectrophotometer as an accessory for the printer. Overall, Epson has made some bold moves in the design of this printer without compromising those elements that have made their professional printers so successful in so many markets.
