Epson launches SureColor P5360 printer

Epson has launched the 17-inch SureColor P5360, a $3,495 printer aimed at pro photographers. 

The P5360 features a new 10-colour UltraChrome PRO10 ink set that's sold in high-capacity 200ml cartridges (costing RRP AUD$169).

Epson says with dedicated channels for photo and matte black inks, there’s no ink switching, helping to save time and reduce ink waste. 

In addition, the printer’s built-in Carbon Black Mode increases Dmax, allowing for richer blacks and improved contrast on glossy paper.

The printer includes a built-in roll feeder, auto cutter and a high-capacity cassette that accommodates up to 100 cut sheets ranging from 8" x 10" (203 x 254 mm) to A2+ (432 x 610 mm) sheets. It also has a 4.3-inch colour LCD touchscreen.

The P5360 also includes Epson Media Installer, a software application designed to help control parameters for printing with a variety of media, including thick fine art papers.

The Epson SureColor P5360 is expected to start shipping in Australia in December. Find out more at Epson.com.au.
