Ink Dot Size
Print beautiful photographs with little graininess.
Long life prints
Pigment inks maintain more beautiful and more vibrant
prints over a long period of time since their high water
and ozone resistance and high light fastness prevent the
inks from being broken down by light and ozone in the
air.
Realizing High Productivity
Excellent color stability leads to efficient printing
The color stabilizes in a short time so it can safely be used
for pre-press workflow and color editing, increasing
work efficiency.

and other information easier to understand. It also
provides instructions on loading fine art media and
other operations.
Equipped for Wireless LANs
The wireless LAN feature that comes standard with the
printer allows wireless printing from computers and
compatible Wi-Fi devices.

You may find print speeds to be insufficient on some
wireless networks or when printing at A3 or other
extremely large sizes. A physical connection is
recommended when consistent print speeds are required.

Improved energy efficiency with sleep mode and
Power Off Timer
When no print jobs are being handled, or when no
operation has been performed for some time, the printer
enters sleep mode to reduce power consumption.
Furthermore, if the Power Off Timer function is
enabled, the printer can automatically switch off to
avoid wasting electricity. This function works if no print
jobs are received and no operations are carried out on
the control panel while the printer is not in an error
status for a specified duration of time.
