Epson PreciseColor manufacturing
In order to ensure consistent printing between multiple Epson Stylus Pro printers of the same model, Epson has enhanced the manufacturing process to include colorimetric calibration. Eliminating the need for internal calibration devices, this system evaluates and adjusts each printer's performance at the manufacturing stage, producing consistent color output from printer to printer. Automatic print head alignment technology
- Built-in sensor that reads printed data for highly precise alignment of all color channels (aligns both single and bi-directional print modes)
Automatic nozzle verification and cleaning technology
- Built-in sensor that quickly verifies nozzle status without using any media; automatically cleans the print head if any problems are found – even partially clogged nozzles

Three-level Black ink technology
- Simultaneously uses Black, Light Black, and Light Light Black ink
- Significantly improves the printer's gray balance while eliminating color casts
- Delivers outstanding midtones and highlights for a smoother tonal range
- Virtually eliminates the metamerism and bronzing of basic pigment chemistry

Automatic, real-time Black ink mode switching
Printers can automatically utilize two different Black ink modes – Photo Black or Matte Black. This innovative solution optimizes the Black ink density for various media types, dramatically improving the final print quality. The standard Photo Black ink mode can be used for any media type with professional results. However, for certain Epson media such as Velvet Fine Art, Enhanced Matte, and UltraSmooth® Fine Art, using the optional Matte Black ink mode instead will dramatically increase your black optical density for even better print quality.
