Epson Stylus Pro 3880

 

Although the 3880 lacks a roll feeder, it has three paper-feeding methods: a main top-loading feeder that holds up to 50 sheets of photo paper up to 17 by 22 inches, or 120 sheets of plain paper. A second, single-sheet top feeder is optimized for...

Professional-grade output. Prints at paper sizes up to 17 by 24 inches. Multiple paper feeds

Though exquisite, both graphics and photos showed a few minor flaws. No option to print from paper rolls

The Epson Stylus Pro 3880 professional photo printer is a great choice both for professional photographers and for amateurs thinking of taking the leap into a career in photography.

Epson Stylus Pro 3880

 

When you have the most popular C Size (17") printer on the market, it might not seem that there's a good reason to update it. For the past three years, the Epson Stylus Pro 3800 has held this status. With a good combination of price and size, this C...

Epson Stylus Pro 3880

 

Epson's least expensive professional photo printer, the Epson Stylus Pro 3880, can crank out prints up to 17 inches by 22 inches -- something that the lower-tier Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark II (*Est. $445) and Canon Pixma Pro9500 Mark II (*Est. $765)...

Exceptional photo prints, prints up to 17 inches by 22 inches, compact size

Wastes ink when switching from glossy to matte, finicky paper feed, expensive

Epson Stylus Pro 3880

 

After nearly three years, Epson is replacing the popular A2-size Stylus Pro 3800 with the impressive Stylus Pro 3880.

Paper handling; excellent included ICC paper profiles

Flimsy paper output tray

I compared the 3880 to its predecessor, printing the same files on both machines. The addition of vivid magenta gives the 3880 an edge for reproducing more accurate blues and magentas. Colors are more vibrant, there’s more highlight and shadow detail,...

Epson Stylus Pro 3880 review

 

It offers A2 photo prints, but is bigger really better?

Extra-large A2 printing in great quality and at sizes up to 17x37.4 inches

Printer and cartridges are pricey

Lacks a little of the R3000's finesse, but a good option if you can afford it.

Epson Stylus Pro 3880 review

 

Designed to sit on your desk (although it'll have to be a pretty big desk), the Epson Stylus Pro 3880 is more like a regular inkjet on steroids. Something that makes it useful for all kinds of users – from design studios to professional photographers...

The Epson Stylus Pro 3880 is that most remarkable of things – a desktop A2+ printer that's quiet, easy to use and which produces great-looking prints. Ideal for use in a small offices, photo studios and for printer proofs, we simply can’t recommend it...

If you're after gallery-quality output, and the flexibility of a 17in desktop photo inkjet, look no further.

Epson Stylus Pro 3880

 

Epson is replacing its Stylus Pro 3800 medium format printer with the 3880, rolling its latest set of technologies down the product line from the Stylus Pro 4880, as well as introducing a new version of its screening architecture.

None of this comes cheap. The Epson Stylus Pro 3880 debuts at AU$2195 and will ship in mid October.

Con l'impiego dell'avanzato sistema UltraChrome K3 Epson di quarta generazione con inchiostri a pigmenti Vivid Magenta per stampe di alta qualità e che durano nel tempo fino al formato A2+ sia in bianco e nero che a colori, la Epson Stylus Pro 3880...

Epson Stylus Pro 3880 review

 

Most A2+ printers are enormous things you need plenty of office space for, but not the Epson Stylus Pro 3880 . Designed to sit on your desk – although it'll have to be a pretty big one – and with a simple top-controlled panel and stylish matt black...

Produces great-looking prints; compact and quiet; automatically switches between blacks

No paper roll option; software installer needs updating
