REDEFINING THE
FUTURE OF PRINTING
For more than a decade, Epson has set the standard by which
all other photographic printing technologies are measured. So,
when our engineers decided to develop the ultimate printing
technology for Corporate Graphics and Display Signage
applications, we focused on three main goals — Performance,
Precision, and Brilliance.
Introducing the all-new Epson Stylus Pro 7700 and
9700 printers.
By incorporating our latest achievements in high-performance
24- and 44-inch wide print engine technology, along with the
extreme precision of our latest MicroPiezo®TFP®print head,
our latest printing technology produces a final print with
uncompromising accuracy. And with our latest Epson UltraChrome®
with Vivid Magenta pigment ink technology, your color work will
not only be brilliant — but archival as well.
Prepare to see your prints in a whole new way.
Performance. Precision. Brilliance.
A Based upon print engine speed only. Total throughput times depend upon front-end
RIP, file size, printer resolution, ink coverage, networking, etc. Standard production
mode based on Fine - 720 dpi high speed.
B Cartridge yields vary considerably for reasons including images printed, print
settings, temperature and humidity. Yields may be lower when printing infrequently
or predominantly with one ink color. A variable amount of ink remains in the cartridge
after the “replace cartridge” signal. Part of the ink from the first cartridges is used for
priming the printer. Ink is used for both printing and print head maintenance. All inks
are used for both black and color printing, and all colors have to be installed for
printing. For more information about cartridges, see www.epson.com/cartridgeinfo

High-Performance Print Speeds
The Epson Stylus Pro 700 series printers are
among the fastest color ink jet printers in their
class and are capable of producing stunning color
output up to an astonishing 619 square feet
per hour.
True Color Accuracy
Utilizing the same pigment-based ink
technology as our industry-standard proofing
line of printers, the Epson Stylus Pro 700 series
produces color-accurate output to satisfy the
most demanding print requirements.
Superior Connectivity
With built-in USB and 10/100 Base-T Ethernet
ports, the Epson Stylus Pro 700 series is very easily
shared among a workgroup of Windows and/or
Macintosh®computers.
Durable Prints
The Epson Stylus Pro 700 series printers use the
all-pigment Epson UltraChrome with Vivid Magenta
ink, so your output will be instantly dry and
waterproof. No more faded prints, smudging or
long dry times.
Unmatched Image Quality
By combining the precision of the Epson
MicroPiezo TFP print head with unique
Variable-Sized Droplet Technology and true
pigment-based Epson UltraChrome with Vivid
Magenta Ink Technology, the overall result is a
new level of print quality for the most demanding
output requirements. This could be the best
quality print you’ve ever seen from a printer
in this class.
Easy to Use
With simple front-loading ink and media,
included drivers for both Mac®and Windows®
operating systems, and a large, 2.5-inch color LCD,
the Epson Stylus Pro 700 series printer is simple
to use. No more fumbling through manuals or
attending long training sessions.
High Productivity
Using different size ink cartridges up to 700 ml
means you will never have to think about
productivity again. And, features like Automatic
Nozzle Verification Technology and a simple user
replaceable maintenance tank, mean you can
spend more time printing and less time
maintaining your printer.
World-Class Reliability, Service and Support
Designed with the same attention to detail as all
our award-winning Epson Stylus Pro printers, the
Epson Stylus Pro 700 series may be the last
wide-format color printer you buy for years to
come. Even better, every Epson Stylus Pro 700
series printer is backed by Epson’s on-site service
and support programs, so you will be up and
running when you need to be.
