The superiority of Ultra Hi-Definition prints

®

It all starts with Epson’s patented MicroPiezo

technology. With print head nozzles delivering five sizes of ink droplets,

you get more color combinations, sharper detail and smoother gradations

without sacrificing print speed.

Blazing fast print speeds

Due to print head enhancements, all Epson Ultra Hi-Definition printers and

all-in-ones have significant print speed improvements over previous models —

up to four times faster when printing photos and two times faster when

printing documents.

Breakthrough ink for brilliant, long-lasting prints

Claria Hi-Definition Ink is a 6-color, dye-based ink that offers durability

equivalent to or better than lab prints, plus color saturation and brilliance

that surpasses the lab. Offering the ultimate combination of photo quality

and longevity, it’s a major breakthrough in ink technology. Smudge, scratch,

water and fade resistant Claria Hi-Definition Ink is perfect for printing photos

and everyday text documents. Its quick-drying formula enables you to handle

prints immediately after printing. Prints are resistant to scratches. Water spills

can be wiped off without ruining the print. Claria ink prints even resist fading

up to 98 years in a glass frame and about 200 years in an album.**
