Photo-i's Epson R800 Interactive Review Completed
The UK website Photo-i, run by Vincent Oliver, has just completed its interactive review of the highly anticipated Epson Stylus Photo R800 printer.
“The R800 is for the creative photographer who wants the highest quality pigment ink printer currently available. I hope Epson don’t leave it too long before they introduce a larger format printer using the new UltraChrome inks and Gloss Optimizer. Wouldn’t it be nice if the delay on the 4000 printer was due to a re-design to incorporate the new inks. All we need now is the announcement of the Epson Stylus Pro 2300 - just wishful thinking.”
The R800 printer, which uses UltraChrome pigment inks, will cost $399 and will ship in February 2004. Cartridges will cost ?11.90 each and ?6.35 for the Gloss Optimizer cartridge (inc. VAT).
