Price Paid:  $0.00 from Square, London

Model Reviewed:
7000

Summary:

An excellent large(ish) 24" wide format printer. I have printed exhibition prints from this printer that convey a scale and create an impact that smaller formats cannot achieve. It''s not a printer for everyone. You''ll get as good or (slightly) better prints from a small carriage Epson printer, but that is not the point. The point is those BIG prints!

Strengths:

Relatively inexpensive, particulrly now its been out a while, and Epson seem to be focusing more on their 44" carriage 10000 series printers. The quality excellent. Although the droplet size is fixed at around 10 picolitres (compared with 4 or so for the latest printers with variable size droplet technology), I get smooth photographic prints at less than A4 size, if needed. Pro robustness, the ability to handle thick media without breaking into a sweat, high standard of construction, all make this a good value, professional-level tool for serious use. *The* printer of choice for professional black and white output using the Piezography24 professional software and ink system specially designed for it from inkjetmall.

Weaknesses:

Non-archival standard inks mean limited display life. New inks announced for the US market should increase display life. Third party inks can help solve this issue.
