Introduction

Features

Epson Stylus Pro 9900/9910 and Epson Stylus Pro
7900/7910 are wide-format ink jet color printers
supporting 44-inch and 24-inch paper respectively.
The features of this printer are described below.
Newly developed orange and green inks strengthen
our ink lineup and greatly expand the color
reproducible range
This allows you to perform the most suitable color
reproduction for color proofing.
Pigment inks have greater light fastness and
resistance to ozone for reducing fading effect
This opens up the range of uses from printing photos
to displays and banners for storefronts using long
paper or posters normally subject to fading.
Reduced color difference in different light source
conditions
Previously, coloring with light colors was used to
achieve subtle tones. However, to minimize this and
thereby reduce color differences in different light
source conditions, Light Light Black ink is used
instead. The color remains stable even under different
light sources, ensuring consistently high quality
printing.
Printing monochrome photos
Using the three densities of black ink as the main inks
adjusted with light coloring, you can achieve subtle
black and white tones. Also, you can print
monochrome photos with rich tones from color photo
data using only the functions of the printer driver,
without having to use an application.

Support for a range of paper types
Epson offers a range of special media for ensuring
high-quality printing. By selecting the right paper for
the application, whether for indoor or outdoor use
(lamination is recommended), you can express a whole
new world of art. Also, the printer handles paper up to
1.5-mm thick and can also print on paperboard.
See "Paper Information" on page 172
Spindleless simplifies the roll paper setting
Since the printer employs a spindleless mechanism,
you do not have to set the roll paper to a spindle. This
allows you to set the paper in a small space, as well.
Tension adjustment is also adjusted automatically
according to the media type. You can also set the
tension on the LCD panel.
Stability of ink after printing
Since the color of the ink stabilizes soon after printing,
the prints can be used in the prepress workflow and for
color proof purposes.
Support two kind of black inks
Both Photo and Matte Black ink are installed in this
printer. Photo Black ink can be used for all media types
with professional quality results. Matte Black ink
significantly increases black optical density when
printing on matte and fine-art type papers. Switch the
black ink on the printer's control panel according to
the paper used.
Large-capacity (350 or 700 ml) ink cartridge
Epson provides large-capacity (350 or 700 ml) ink
cartridges for this printer that realize the high
productivity required for professional work.
Roll paper remaining
The remaining amount of the roll paper is displayed on
the LCD panel. When you remove the roll paper, the
barcode (including the paper type, the roll paper
length, and the roll length alert value information) is
printed on the roll paper edge. This will facilitate paper
setting the next time the same paper is used.
High-speed USB 2.0 / Ethernet
You can connect to a network using USB 2.0 or
Ethernet.
