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.

Introduction
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 171
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.
