It features improved image quality compared to its predecessor, due to an improved head, Epson's new LUT technology and Epson UltraChrome K3+ Vivid Magenta ink. However, the Epson Stylus Photo R2880 still comes with all of the additional features Epson users have become accustomed to. These include front facing USB PictBridge connectivity as well as dual USB 2.0 ports on the rear of the printer. The Stylus Photo R2880 provides additional media support for CD and DVD printing, fine art paper, roll paper and thick rigid media such as board and poly-board. The quality of the Stylus Photo R2880 makes it ideal for photographers wanting to create long-long-lasting prints to sell, exhibit or incorporate within professional portfolios. The Stylus Photo R2880 is able to deliver this level of quality at high speed thanks to its Epson MicroPiezoTM head, which is coated with ink repelling Teflon to ensure unparalleled accuracy in dot placement. The UltraChrome K3+ Vivid Magenta ink enables superb grey balance and precise colour without any colour cast. It also maintains the superior features of the UltraChrome K3 ink such as great colour accuracy of neutral and dark colours, excellent short-term colour stability and smooth tonal gradation from shadow to light. The issue of metamerism is virtually eliminated with this inkset. Combined with improved LUT technology, the Stylus Photo R2880 makes near perfect colour reproduction a reality for professional photographers. There is also a unique mode within the print driver which enables users to have creative control over black and white tones as well as gradation in much the same way users can do in their darkrooms. To calculate which combination should be used to deliver the tones and colours required for the images, Epson has developed new Look Up Table (LUT) technology in partnership with one of the world's leading centres of colour science, the Munsell Colour Science Laboratory of the Rochester Institute of Technology. In conjunction with the Micro PiezoTM print head the Epson LUT technology decides how much of each colour is used to translate a RGB source file into a CMYK print. This results in prints with smooth gradations, reduced graininess, wide colour gamut and low colour inconstancy, all of which combine to create clear and beautiful Hi-Definition photographic images.

UltraChrome K3+ Vivid Magenta Ink The Stylus Photo R2880 now uses the improved version of Epson UltraChrome K3 - Epson UltraChrome K3+ Vivid Magenta ink. The introduction of Vivid Magenta and Vivid Light Magenta, dramatically improves the colour gamut, in particular for the blues and magenta and further reduces colour inconstancy, while keeping the strength of the UltraChrome K3 inks. As a result the Stylus Photo R2880 is able to achieve 85% of Pantone gamut using only eight ink cartridges as opposed to the 10 to 12 used by other systems on the market. The user also has the option of choosing either Photo Black or Matte Black depending on the media choice and desired photo finish.
