Super-wide colour gamut: Easily create consistent, accurate proofs or exceptional photographs and fine art images thanks to one of the widest colour gamuts on the market. Epson’s 11-colour UltraChrome HDR inks and Advanced-TFP print head give a professional finish every time, and are identical to the inks and technologies used in Epson’s larger format production printers up to 44 inches.

Accurate remote proofing: Produce high-quality remote proofs with the Epson Stylus Pro 4900’s automatic colour certification and calibration.

All inks come in high capacity cartridges for less frequent changes and better value.

Outstanding flexibility: 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.
