Stylus Pro

Designed with the print needs of the commercial photography and
fine art markets in mind, yet also representing a sound choice for
the proofing market, the 44-inch Stylus Pro 9890 oers accurate
colour reproduction with unbeatable productivity.

The wide colour gamut and consistently smooth gradations make for better-than­lab-quality photos and proofs. And the high colour-match rate and superior
print quality come from the 9-colour UltraChrome K3 with Vivid Magenta ink,
incorporating auto selection of photo and matte black inks. This ink set oers a
superior level of greyscale reproduction, thanks to three densities of black. Either
a standard photo or matte black (depending on the media) is used along with light
black and light light black to create true black and white images. In addition to
improving the grey balance and eliminating colour casts, this combination of
blacks creates a smoother tonal range with a natural look.

The TFP print head gives superior dot quality for crisp, clear images with maximum
detail. Photographers and proofers can also authenticate colours, thanks to the
optional inline SpectroProofer. This provides automatic colour certification and
calibration, as well as helping to create ICC profiles at speed.
