Epson has announced the launch of the EPSON Stylus Photo RX610 and RX 690 inkjet photo multifunction printers (MFP). With digital photography becoming more widespread, these photo MFP's are poised to meet and exceed the needs of discerning photo enthusiasts.
Performance Unlimited
For photography enthusiasts, superb print quality is a critical part of the entire digital photography experience. The advanced formulation of the EPSON Claria Photographic Inks offers the ‘high definition' standard in photo prints with durability of up to 200 years (in dark album storage conditions). Using a six colour ink configuration, the inks promise vibrant colours, accurate reproduction and strong gloss for a photo lab finish. The six INKdividual cartridge system, also means cost effective printing, as users only need to replace depleted cartridges.
At the core of the EPSON Stylus Photo RX 610 and RX 690 lie the twin drivers – the Micro Piezo print head and Advanced Variable Sized Droplet Technology (VSDT), which control both speed and quality in printing. The award-winning Micro Piezo is an extremely reliable print head, which ensures consistency during prolonged printing, while the Advanced VSDT intelligently manages ink droplet sizes and resolutions up to 5760 dots per inch.
Software for that Professional Touch
To help photographers achieve their best, Epson's bundled EPSON PhotoEnhance software aids like a photo expert. The software is designed to automatically correct common digital photo flaws such as colour balance to ensure the perfect print. Also new, the EPSON Portrait Enhance detects and improves face definition and skin radiance for natural looking portraits.
