The Epson SureColor P-series large format printers incorporate Epson's latest achievements in photographic ink jet technology. By combining the advanced technology of our PrecisionCore MicroPiezo TFP print head with the archival performance of Epson UltraChrome HDX 10-color expanded gamut inks, Epson's newest generation of Epson SureColor P-Series printers represent worthy successors to the revered Epson Stylus Pro 900 Series.
