Epson Stylus™Pro 3800

Print like a professional

The Epson Stylus Pro 3800 is an innovative, professional A2 printer,

that both graphic arts professionals and advanced amateur

photographers can afford.

The complete range of professional printers

When it comes to excellence in print quality and durability, Epson pigment inks

are synonymous. Since their introduction to the market in 2000, when

Epson launched its ﬁrst printer using pigment ink, these inks have had

enormous appeal to the photo and ﬁne art markets in which quality and

durability are among the highest priorities.

In 2002, Epson released its UltraChrome™ Ink – an ink with such high levels

of performance that it established Epson as the defacto standard for professionals

in the photo, ﬁne art and prooﬁng markets. With the introduction of the advanced

UltraChrome™ K3 Ink in 2004, Epson once again reinforced its leadership in

delivering high quality professional printing solutions.

Professional printing

Micro Piezo™print head technology

A key technology in Epson’s worldwide inkjet printing leadership,

Epson’s Micro Piezo print head is designed to extend print head

life signiﬁcantly and deliver the highest image quality possible.

Unlike thermal inkjet technology, Epson’s Micro Piezo technology does

not “cook” the ink to eject the ink droplet but instead applies an electric

charge to the piezo element. This electrical charge swiftly changes the

form of the chamber plate creating a “pull, push, pull” motion which

rapidly brings the ink through to the ink chamber and then out through

the print head nozzle with superb accuracy onto the media.

The Epson Stylus™Pro 3800 offers unparalleled output quality with

the highest resolution available at 2880dpi. This has been realised

through the synergistic effects of precision dot-control technology

that discharges a minimum dot size of 3.5 pl and a mechanical

structure that reinforces printing precision.

Epson UltraChrome™

K3 Ink overview

Epson UltraChrome™Ink has established itself as the standard

among professionals and high-end users who desire high

quality and durability. Epson UltraChrome K3 is an improved

version of this ink and was developed based on feedback from

our customers.

Its new pigment and resin improves glossiness and D-max

readings on glossy media and exhibits reduced metamerism

(i.e. colour inconsistency under different light sources).

Additionally, three levels of black ink dramatically improve

grey balance, (which is the axis of colour imaging), and

produce superior black-and-white and colour prints.

Professional media handling

To ensure the Epson Stylus Pro 3800 affords maximum media

handling capabilities, the printer has been designed with three

separate paper feed paths; an automatic sheet feeder, rear

manual feed and a front manual feed. The Epson Stylus Pro

3800 can support media up to 1.5mm thick and offers a wide

range of BorderFree sizes to suit all your printing requirements.

BorderFree sizes include; 4"x 6", 5"x 7", 8"x 10", A4, 11"x 14",

A3, A3+ and A2.

Accurate colour control

Epson UltraChrome K3 Ink uses three blacks to achieve a more stable and

accurate grey balance while also allowing for more accurate colour control due

to the smaller quantity of colour ink used. Professional users will appreciate this

high degree of colour accuracy when printing proofs, photographs and limited

edition ﬁne art prints.

Excellent colour stability

When Epson UltraChrome K3 Ink comes into contact with the substrate, the ink

quickly separates from the pigment particles which are absorbed deep into the

media. As a result, colours become resistant to change and stabilise quickly.

Superior short-term colour stability allows for high-precision contract prooﬁng

and speeding-up of operations.

Dramatically reduced metamerism

The characteristics of pigment ink and reduced colour ink consumption

minimise the effect created when objects having different spectral distributions

look alike under one light source, but appear different when viewed under

another. This results in more consistent looking prints, even when viewed

under different light sources.

Epson UltraChrome K3 Ink

High ink density, greater colour stability and longer archivability are all attributes of

Epson UltraChrome™K3 Ink, the most exciting advancement made in inkjet printing

today. Epson UltraChrome K3 Ink is an eight colour ink set that achieves new

heights in colour reproduction applying advanced ink technology and utilising

the characteristics of pigment ink covered in clear resin coating.

Excellence in colour printing

Highly improved gloss levels

New resin chemistry smoothes the surface of the paper when ink is applied

and thereby dramatically improves print gloss levels.

Thanks to Epson’s unique high density, resin coated

UltraChrome™K3 Pigment Ink, colour prints exhibit

a brilliance and depth superior to that of traditional

offset printing and silver halide photography.

The wide colour gamut produced by UltraChrome

K3 Ink easily covers the gamut of complex images

and worldwide prooﬁng standards.

Wide gamut advantage

Epson UltraChrome™K3 Ink produces black-and-white photographs never

thought possible from a colour printer. Skin tones come alive as never before

and shadows reveal subtleties that were previously lost on other printers.

Three-level black ink technology

Over the years, the majority of silver halide photographs have been in colour. Despite this, many professional photographers choose

black-and-white photography due to the simple and direct expression of the medium, in addition to the power that black-and-white

photographs possess. Until now, it has been technically very difﬁcult for black-and-white photographers to use digital photography

because of colour twists and short tonal gradation inherent in digital printers. Epson’s UltraChrome K3 Ink substantially reduces

these problems, allowing black-and-white photographers to fully express themselves using digital cameras and printers with

quality rivalling that of silver-halide processes.

Smooth tonal gradation

The three different density blacks found in Epson UltraChrome

K3 produce smooth gradation and substantially reduces

colour twist. The illustration below shows the smooth tonal

scale that is produced using Light Light Black ink.

Higher D-max with glossy media

The Photo Black ink in the Epson UltraChrome K3 ink set

has been improved, resulting in a higher D-max. This is very

useful for reproducing jet black areas. The end result are prints

containing a depth and richness never before experienced with

a digital colour printer.

Mechanical background

The secret why Epson Stylus Pro 3800 is smaller than other A2+

size printers is the newly developed pressured ink cartridge.

Epson technology made possible this incredibly productive

printer that carries as many as nine cartridges in its compact body.

High capacity ink 80ml cartridge

An innovative ink system developed speciﬁcally for the Epson

Stylus Pro 3800 makes it ideal in environments where large

and/or unattended printing is a matter of course.

The newly developed pressurised ink cartridge design neatly ﬁts

into the Epson Stylus Pro 3800, making it even more suitable for

environments where space is at a premium.

Intellidge ink cartridge system

Cartridges will automatically track key data points such as ink

levels, ink type and usage rates for production cost estimates.

For greatly increased productivity, you can replace ink cartridges

on-the-ﬂy, even during the middle of a print run, with no loss in

image quality or production time.

Compact design with large ink cartridges

High quality, fast printing

Automatic switching between

Photo and Matte Black ink

To save time and money the Epson Stylus Pro 3800 automatically

switches between Photo and Matte Black ink when the correct paper

type is selected in the printer driver. The change over process is

extremely fast which further minimises downtime when switching

between black inks.

New Image Processing Technology

Epson Image Processing Technology maximises the performance of

Epson UltraChrome™K3 Ink to produce images of the highest quality.

New mapping algorithms further reduce graininess at both low

and high resolutions, enabling the Epson Stylus Pro 3800 printer to

produce images of the highest standard, at any resolution.

Built-in interfaces

One of the distinct advantages of the Epson Stylus Pro

3800 is its ﬂexibility in operating either as a standalone

printer or in a networked environment. Supporting

Microsoft®Windows®2000 and XP, as well as Apple

Mac®OS X 10.2.8, the printer’s high-speed USB 2.0 and

in-built Type B Ethernet (10/100 Base Tx) capabilities

ensure it can quickly and easily be installed into almost

any desktop or network situation.
