Have you ever dreamed of a printer that would give you better quality prints and several color options than the printer you have now? Did you think that this dream would never materialize? You’re definitely wrong! The answer is the new Epson Stylus Pro 4000.

The Epson Stylus Pro 4000 is a new photo printer with several advanced features targeted at satisfying the needs of the most demanding professional photographers, graphic designers, commercial printers, GIS mapping, CAD users, and more. It has a resolution of 2880 x 1440 dots per inch, a variable droplet size as small as 3.5 Picoliters, and a print speed up to 1.9 times faster than any previous Stylus Pro printer with the help of a new one-inch-wide print head packed with 180 nozzles per channel. It also includes a unique 17" wide printer design with all of Epson's latest ink, print head, and printer engine technologies.

Using the pigment ink colors that include cyan, magenta, yellow, light cyan, light magenta, light black, matte black, and photo black of the Epson UltraChrome Ink technology to eliminate color casts and enhance midtones, we can produce prints with amazing colors while providing consistently stable colors that notably surpass standard dye ink technologies. To maximize the use of this ink technology, Epson has developed a unique 8-channel print head capable of holding eight separate ink cartridges simultaneously. These channels can handle either 110 ml or 220 ml cartridges or a combination of both sizes. Each cartridge also uses Epson's Intelligent High Capacity Ink technology, a feature that stores a variety of information on a memory chip including ink levels and communicates the data to the printer whenever the power is turned on.

In order to produce the highest level of image quality on different media types, the Epson Stylus Pro 4000 offers two black modes, Photo Black and Matte Black, which are automatically activated by the printer. The printer operates in Photo Black mode when we set the printer driver for photographic media surfaces such as glossy, luster or semi-matte. However, when we select a matte, cotton-based or fine art surface in the printer driver, the printer switches to Matte Black mode.

Epson Stylus Pro 4000 has a built-in paper tray can hold up to 250 sheets of plain letter sized paper or up to 50 cut sheets of photographic media up to 17" x 22", as a roll paper holder and automatic cutter allow borderless printing from two or three-inch cored roll paper. Its built-in white beam sensor allows the printer to automatically scan printed alignment patterns created by the printer and then makes automated adjustments if necessary. The said sensor is also used to detect clogged nozzles and automatically activate head cleaning cycles when necessary. User-adjustable roll media spindles can accept either two-inch or three-inch media cores.

It also offers us a sleek, black and silver metallic design that features an easy-to-use front control panel with backlit displays and ink level indicators. Operation is simplified with six simple buttons located next to the display panel. Setup time and effort is also greatly reduced by a built-in auto head alignment feature. Furthermore, Epson's advanced Micro Piezo(R) DX3(TM) ASIC technology controls the printing process to produce consistent image quality and color output from print to print.

With its great features and numerous capabilities, the Epson Stylus Pro 4000 is certainly a perfect solution to all our printing needs and concerns. Its cost is quite expensive but that amount is relatively small when compared to the benefits that we will receive from the use of this printer.
