Epson has added a new printer and two all-in-ones to its line of inkjet devices that use Claria dye-based inks. The printers use six individual ink cartridges, and can output images on both paper and CDs or DVDs.The compact Stylus Photo R280 Ultra Hi-Definition printer produces droplets as small as 1.5 picoliters. It can print photos at sizes up to 8.5x11 inches, and can also output prints as wide as 44 inches on specialty paper. Its Auto Photo Correction feature uses face-detection technology to distinguish people from scenery, and optimizes exposures, skin tones, and color vibrancy, in addition to correcting redeye and sharpening images.
Adding copying and 1200x2400 dpi, 48-bit scanning functions to the R280's feature set, the larger RX595 also includes a 2.5-inch color LCD, memory card slots, PictBridge support, and a USB port to enable printing without a computer. An optional Bluetooth adapter can be plugged into the USB port to transfer camera phone images via Bluetooth, and the RX595 can print photos directly from a USB flash drive. Photos can be printed from memory cards in the order of their dates. Other notable features include automatic color restoration for scanned prints, direct-to-JPEG and -PDF scanning, and an index sheet feature that lets users select images to print, paper size, and paper type by marking and scanning a paper index sheet.
The pricier RX680 is very similar to the RX595, but includes a built-in auto duplexer for printing on two sides of each sheet of paper, as well as separate input trays for plain and photo paper.
The $99.99 R280, $149.99 RX595, and $199.99 RX680 will be available in September 2007.
