Super-wide colour gamut:
You can now easily create consistent,
accurate proofs or exceptional photographs
and fine art images thanks to one of the
widest colour gamuts on the market. By
utilising Green and Orange inks, you can
achieve more accurate spot colour simulation
and smoother tonal gradations throughout the
colour sprectrum, Grass and foliage will be
much more vivid and natural, and orange
tones like sunsets will be more dazzling.
Accurate Colour Control:
Highly accurate colour control virtually eliminates differences in colour
when printing at various resolutions, and ensures that colour gradations
are ultra-smooth, even at high saturations. Even hard-to-reproduct skin
tones are rendered with exceptional beauty and fidelity that is
demanded by the print professionals.
Epson New LUT Technology:
In additional to maximising use of the wide colour gamut and ensuring
the highest possible fidelity to the original image, Epson New LUT
Technology provides you with three additional major benefits that
improve print quality.
Smooth Colour Gradations:
Epson New LUT Technology provides a smoother colour gamut
for finely detailed colour gradations.
Graininess is No Longer Noticeable:
Graininess if of course underirable in the skin tones in portrait or
commercial photography. Epson New LUT Technology reduces
graininess by optimising the amount of ink blend.
Consistent Quality in All Types of Light:
Epson New LUT Technology also helps to virtually eliminate
colour inconsistency, so prints look just as they should under
varied light sources.
Whether displaying prints in
a gallery, producing
promotional materials or
doing print proofing, you
don’t want the colours to look
different under different
lighting conditions. Epson
UltraChrome® HDR Ink
completely overcomes the
problem with a carefully
developed formulation, ensuring consistent colour balance
regardless of the light source under which the print is viewed.
Advanced MicroPiezo TFP® Pring Head:
The Epson Stylus™ Pro 4900 is equiped with a MicroPiezo TFP® Print
Head. Capable of delivering well-defined dots with virtually no misting
or satellites, this cutting-edge print head is optimised for Epson
UltraChrome® HDR ink and utilises Epson’s own variable-size droplet
technology to produce droplets as small as 3.5 picoliters. Additionally,
the head is designed to markedly decrease print time while optimising
image quality.
New High Capcity Ink Cartridges:
Epson has taken Epson UltraChrome® HDR Ink to an even higher level
of performance with a 10-colour ink set. Quality-conscious professionals
should strongly consider making this ink their first choice.
The new larger capacity ink cartridges (200ml) used by the Epson
Stylus™ Pro 4900, increases your productivity during high volume print
runs, while decreasing time and expense.
Handy Maintenance Box System:
The Epson Stylus™ Pro 4900 uses a maintenance box system to
support heavy, continuous printing operations. It is user friendly and ink
cartridge replacement is just as easy as for ordinary cartridges.
Two types are supplied:
Maintenance Tank:
Borderless Maintenance Tank:
Fast Throughput:
Work faster with a production speed of upto 30m2/hour and minimal
maintenance requirements.
Faster Cutting Speed and Efficiency:
The Epson Stylus™ Pro 4900 employs a new rotary paper cutter that is
much faster than previous types: cutting the entire sheet smoothly and
lceanly takes about two seconds. Furthermore, it can cut every kind of
roll media, including cloth, canvas and adhesive paper, so there is no
need for optional manual cutters.
Autmatic Nozzle Check and
Cleaning Maintains Print
Quality:
To assure proper printing,
a built-in sensor quickly
verifies print nozzle status
and automatically clean
the print head when
required. Even partially
clogged nozzles will be
located with this
intelligent system.
Special Mode for Dot
Proofing:
A new 1440 x 1440dpi mode delivers high quality proof sheets more
than three times faster than the previous model. Supported by CMYK-
HTM, it delivers greater sharpness than previous proofing models.
Advanced Media Handling:
The Epson Stylus Pro 4900s advanced media handling allows you to
print on a wide range of media up to 1.5mm thick, including thick photo
or presentation matte board, canvas and fine art paper. Choose from a
variety of paper paths; cassette, top and front manual board feed or roll.
Dual-Tension Roll Feed Spindle:
Prevent misalignment that can result in uneven feeding and lower
print quality, the Epson Stylus™ Pro 4900 uses a dual-
tension roll feed spindle. Providing easier roll
paper handling, it lets you quickly
switch from normal tension to high
tension when using thinner media.
Conventient adapter collars ensure
compatibility with both 2” and 3” rolls.
High-Level Colour Proofing / Remote Proofing:
Extremely accurate print quality and outstanding productivity make the
Epson Stylus™ Pro 4900 an excellent choice for proofing applications.

Epson Stylus™ Pro 4900 is the
SpectroProofer®, which facilitates
professional colour management
workflows by performing colour
calibration automatically.
Incorporating industry-standard X-Rite
technology, the SpectroProofer® provides
