The core of this inkjet model includes a nine-ink set, there’s onboard Wi-Fi for printing from smartphones or cameras directly, a 4.3-inch touch panel screen for making selections, and an 80ml cartridge size described as generous by its maker. Three paper paths, including a front-loading one for fine art paper, make it easy to switch between different formats – there's even a roll paper option for panoramic prints.
This is an update of the older Epson SureColor P800, offering a significant improvement in image quality, with deeper blacks, thanks to the addition of an additional, tenth, ink. Epson’s flexible flagship A2 printer is capable of printing up to 17 inches in width. The general advice is that you should buy from the same manufacturer as your printer, as every part of the ‘system’ has been developed, designed and honed to work in tandem.Ĭan’t decide whether you need a sheet or roll printer? The new Epson SureColor SC-P900 provides choice of both – although you do have to pay extra to get the roller unit. It's worth considering the type of ink a printer uses when making your purchase decision, as this will directly influence the running costs going forward. The first is what you actually need it for, but you’ll also want to drill into the range of sizes it can output and the resolution it can output them at (given in ‘dpi’ or dots per inch).īuying a printer isn’t a one-off investment – you'll need to regularly buy ink and media too. There are some key factors to consider when sizing up the best wide format printer for you. Whether you're after something that delivers double-size prints from a 13-inch printer (A3+ in Europe), or looking for larger 17-inch roll printing for increased flexibility in terms of print size as well as potentially a greater volume of prints, we've got you covered. With options right up to a 64-inch printer, there is plenty of choice for photographers and artists who want to sell fine art prints. The webcam may be positioned wherever you need it, to allow you to get an optimal view of your printer for monitoring prints and creating time-lapse videos.Today’s huge resolution digital cameras allow any photo enthusiast to potentially print their images up to billboard size – something that was once purely the preserve of professionals able to spend 20K on a camera. Just like the original DeltaMaker, your mobile device can become a fully-functional, wireless control panel for your 3D printer - rather than being forced to use clunky controls attached to the printer, you may control and monitor the DeltaMaker 2XT from the screen on your own smartphone.
The DeltaMaker 2XT also includes support for a webcam which allows you to visually monitor your printers from anywhere on your local area network, including from smartphones and tablet computers. On the DeltaMaker 2XT, the same file only took 2 ½ minutes. For example, the popular “Gear Bearing” sample file required almost 7 minutes to slice on the original DeltaMaker 3D printer. The on-board slicing is 2 - 4 times faster, depending on the complexity of the digital design (STL file) you are printing. This allows the printer to start-up faster and be ready to print sooner. The built-in Raspberry Pi quad-core computer gives the DeltaMaker 2XT fast on-board slicing and better overall performance. The 2XT offers this capability in a stylish design that will look great on your desk. The DeltaMaker 2XT has a incredible 1680 cubic inch build volume, and prints 3D models up to 22 inches tall.
