Epson unveils 13-inch printer for serious photographers

If you are a big fan of taking photos, you might have a digital camera or DSLR camera that has some serious resolution. You may feel that you are missing out on some of your resolution and clarity when you print photos using an average printer. Epson has unveiled a new printer with lots of high-end features that is aimed directly at the photography pro or serious hobbyist that needs the best prints possible.

The new printer is called the Epson Stylus Pro R3000 and Epson claims that the printer is the most advanced 13-inch printer ever. The printer uses nine different ink cartridges and each of those cartridges has 25.9ml of ink inside. The print head uses MicroPiezo AMC Print Head technology with 8-channels for precision and grain free prints.

The inks inside the nine cartridges are UltraChrome K3 with vivid Magenta ink tech. I can only assume that the ink for this printer will cost you as much as a nice normal printer when the cartridges need replaced. The printer itself is very expensive as well at an MSRP of $849. It is set to ship in March.
