Description: Model ID C11C393154 / Epson Stylus Photo 1290S - Printer - colour - ink-jet - A3 Plus - 2880 dpi x 720 dpi - up to 9.4 ppm (mono) / up to 9 ... more
Epson Stylus Photo 1290S ... ppm (colour) - capacity: 100 sheets - parallel, USB / The Epson Stylus Photo 1290S inkjet printer provides lightfast 6-color Photo Reproduction Quality to professional photographers and photography enthusiasts with results more than comparable to standard photo-lab prints. The Stylus Photo 1290S becomes a desktop photo lab, exquisitely printing everything from portfolios and proofs to letters and web pages - delivering edge-to-edge output without the need for cropping. Using the Photo Reproduction Quality technology incorporating the Epson Perfect Picture Imaging System, true photo-quality performance comes as standard without the need for additional upgrades, while printing on plain paper has been improved even further.

The Stylus Photo 1290S offers breakthrough 2880 dpi resolution for pinsharp text, graphics and photo images, combined with Epson's 4 picoliter Ultra Micro Dot and Variable Sized Droplet Technology for finer detail and gradations. Improved edge-to-edge printing now means that photos can be printed with no surrounding white space on standard 4"x6", A4, A3 and A3+ paper, meaning that special oversized paper and cropping are unnecessary. For panoramic prints, a roll holder is also supplied that can take 100mm, 210mm and 329mm wide roll media.

After loading the superb Epson software, I plugged it in and, bingo, after 5 minutes or so I was up and running. So, as far as installation is concerned, this, like all Epson printers, was an absolute doddle. The printer came with a copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements and the ability to handle roll paper, neither of which were any use to me. However, to many these features I guess could be useful, particularly the software which is a v...more

Firstly, for the record, the 1290S is nothing more than a 1290 that's had an external makeover. i.e. it's silver as opposed to battleship grey - hence the 'S'. It replaced the 1270 which was getting a bit long in the tooth. As a serious photographer who exhibits internationally, I need the very best printer that's affordable to me. When my trusty old Epson Stylus Photo 870 finally gave up the ghost last October, I decided to upgrade from A4 to A3 capability. For exhibition work, having the ability to produce large prints of near perfect quality is essential. The 1290S was the obvious choice. I've now lived with this machine for 9 months or so and cannot fault ...
