AMC™Print Head
A high-performance MicroPiezo 
print head precisely places 
variable sized droplets as small 
as 2 picoliters for intricate detail 
at resolutions up to 5760 x 1440 
optimized dpi. 
Exclusive AccuPhoto 
HD2 Image Technology
AccuPhoto HD2 provides 
precision placement of 
each individual ink droplet, 
resulting in remarkably fine 
blends, consistent color and 
extremely accurate highlight 
and shadow details. 
Auto-Switching Matte and Photo Black Inks
The Epson Stylus Photo R3000 automatically 
switches between two different black ink 
modes — Photo Black or Matte Black — to 
optimize black ink density on both traditional 
media and fine art paper.
Professional quality prints.
Color that matches your vision.
Epson UltraChrome K3 with Vivid Magenta Ink Technology
The Epson Stylus Photo R3000 features Epson UltraChrome K3 
with Vivid Magenta Ink Technology, Epson’s groundbreaking 
8-color, pigment-based ink system. This highly acclaimed technology 
redefines what’s possible in color and black-and-white printing.
It even exceeds what traditional color and black-and-white silver 
halide photographs can produce. Among its many benefits are an 
enhanced color gamut with remarkably vibrant blues and violets, 
professional print permanence ratings and instant color stability.
Three-Level Black Ink Technology with Auto-Switching Photo 
and Matte Black Inks
Three-level Black ink technology simultaneously uses Black, Light 
Black and Light Light Black ink for richer blacks, unsurpassed gray 
balance and superior tonal range. The Epson Stylus Photo R3000 
automatically switches between two different Black ink modes — 
Photo Black or Matte Black — optimizing black ink density on all 
traditional and archival photographic media including matte, photo, 
fine art paper and matte or glossy canvas. 
Advanced Black-and-White Photo Mode
The Advanced Black-and-White Photo Mode is only found on Epson 
printers. This exclusive feature represents the standard for producing 
exhibition quality neutral and toned black-and-white prints. Select 
from one of four presets — neutral, warm, cool or sepia, or further 
fine-tune your image with custom controls and a colortoning wheel. 
Then, once you’ve created your own custom setting, it can easily be 
saved and reapplied to streamline your workflow.
In a class by itself.
Much of the advanced technology found on Epson professional 
printers has been integrated into the Epson Stylus Photo R3000, 
making it the first 13-inch wide printer with this level of 
built-in features.
Three paths to consistent feeding.
Advanced Media Handling
The Epson Stylus Photo R3000 is the first 13-inch printer with 
Advanced Media Handling. It combines three paths to give you the 
most wide-ranging media support ever in a photo printer. The 
new front media path is front-in, front-out and enables consistent, 
reliable feeding of fine art papers, canvas, thick media, CD/DVDs 
and Epson professional quality photographic papers. Additionally, 
the roll paper capability enables you to produce panoramas up to
44 inches long, while the auto sheet feeder holds up to 30 sheets
of photographic paper. And, whichever mode is utilized, this new 
technology prevents scuffing and virtually eliminates misfeeds due 
to paper skew. 
Printing technology that sets the standard.
For over a decade, Epson has been the standard by which all 
other photographic printing technologies are measured. And with 
the Epson Stylus Photo R3000, the excellence continues, with 
an impressive list of professional level features that deliver the 
ultimate in quality, reliability and ease of use.
Using the Advanced Black-and-White Photo Mode, professional 
black-and-white prints can be produced from either color or 
monochrome images and the results to date are some of the 
world’s most recognized black-and-white gallery prints.
Epson Intelligent, High-Capacity Ink System
Epson professional printers use an intelligent ink system that offers 
greater efficiency and performance. Utilizing nine high-capacity 
25.9 ml ink cartridges, the Epson Stylus Photo R3000 reliably 
delivers ink at all print speeds, print after print. In addition, Epson 
technology allows for quick and easy on-the-fly ink cartridge 
replacement for increased productivity.
World-Class Service and Support
Our world-class service and support team makes owning the 
Epson Stylus Photo R3000 virtually worry-free.The Epson limited 
warranty offers one year of coverage and toll-free telephone 
support is available Monday through Friday. Full-unit exchange 
service is usually available within two or three business days and 
optional one- or two-year service plans are also available.
Excellence Without Compromise 
The Epson Stylus Photo R3000 takes compromise out of the 
equation. This remarkable 13-inch photographic printer is loaded 
with professional-level Epson technology. In fact, until now, you 
had to buy a much larger professional level printer to obtain 
capabilities such as these. With a list of features like a front-in, 
front-out media path, a high-performance MicroPiezo print head, 
Epson UltraChrome K3 with Vivid Magenta Ink Technology and 
Advanced Black-and-White Photo Mode, it is, quite simply, in a 
class by itself.
8-Channel MicroPiezo AMC Print Head with
Ink-Repelling Coating
At the core of the Epson Stylus Photo R3000 is the Epson 
8-channel MicroPiezo AMC print head. One inch wide, it delivers 
a maximum resolution of 5760 x 1440 optimized dpi and produces 
variable-sized ink droplets as small as 2 picoliters to optimize 
photographic quality and increase print speeds. Simultaneously, 
Epson’s Active Meniscus Control (AMC) technology precisely 
controls the curvature of every ink droplet within each nozzle 
before releasing it. Another unique advantage is an ink-repelling 
coating which helps prevent ink build-up around the nozzles, 
resulting in precise dot placement and reduced maintenance.
AccuPhoto HD2 Image Technology
Working closely with Rochester Institute of Technology’s Munsell 
Color Science Laboratory, Epson has developed AccuPhoto HD2, 
which combines a complex mathematical architecture with an 
advanced screening technology that produces previously unattainable 
image quality. Engineered to ensure precision placement of each 
individual ink droplet, it results in smooth, grain-free images. Choosing 
from an extraordinary number of possible ink combinations for each 
color, it optimizes ink use to maximize the color gamut and provide 
smooth transitions and gradations. And quality stays true, regardless 
of print mode.
PreciseColor™Technology
To ensure the highest level of consistency, every Epson Stylus Photo 
R3000 meets the standards of Epson’s PreciseColor manufacturing. 
This rigorous process applies colorimetric calibration to ensure that 
each printer produces prints that are virtually indistinguishable from 
one another.
