Chances are if you read the previous paragraph you won’t even need to read this conclusion. The Epson Stylus Photo R1900 is quite simply a fantastic wide-format photo printer. If you are a working photographer who needs to quickly deliver large prints ...
Abstract: Overall, the Stylus Photo R1900 is a solid upgrade to what was already a very good printer. The new ink mix, along with the improved Gloss Optimizer, have visibly improved the output. For black and white work, I’d stick with the Epson R2400 or t...
Abstract: To produce more natural skin tones, Epson removed blue, added orange, and reformulated red for the R1900 ink set. Side-by-side comparisons of portraits using the two printers showed more orange saturation on the R1800, just the opposite of what you mi...
