Outstanding versatility
The STYLUS Photo 890 offers everything that today's users demand from a photo printer - whether printing digital camera images, scanned images or Photo CD images. You can even enhance low-resolution images downloaded from the internet. With exceptional speed and photo quality, this printer is ideal, no matter what the image source.
**True Border Free printing is available for the following media sizes: 4"x6", 5"x8", A4, 100x150mm, Letter Panoramic (210x594mm)
Media types recommended:
Photo paper, Matte paper heavy weight, Roll paper. True Border Free printing does not support 2880 dpi setting.
Lightfast Prints
Our exclusive QuickDry™ inks have been reformulated to assure even more vivid and true-to-life colour than before. And when you print on our new resin-coated Epson Premium Glossy Photo Paper, they deliver lightfastness that extends the life of your prints for over 10 years.2 For gallery-ready professional output, it's an advantage that's hard to beat.
2 Lightfastness rating is developed and conducted by Epson using accelerated testing of prints on specialty media, under fluorescent light (indoor display conditions) with glass mount.
Temperature, humidity and some atmospheric gases may also affect the rate of fading. The estimated lightfastness period does not indicate the colour changing or the durability of the paper itself. Epson does not guarantee longevity of prints. Epson recommends that your prints be stored in a photo album (or plastic photo storage box) or in appropriate sleeves commonly available from most camera shops.
