However, after it died following a long and generous life, we chose not to replace it. Since then we&#8217;ve been using a variety of photofinishers to reproduce our photographs. <\/p>\n<p>After strolling by the Epson booth and seeing some of their impressive photograph displays, I talked to one of their customer representatives and am now considering their new <strong>Surecolor P600<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"200\">\n<p>The P600 is a replacement for their previous R3000 model. It connects to your computer setup via an Ethernet connection or via WiFi. You&#8217;ll need a desktop area of 24&#8243;x36&#8243; for the printer.<\/p>\n<p>The top loader automatically feeds 13&#8243;x19&#8243; paper for borderless printing. There&#8217;s a front loader for feeding single sheets of specialty fine art papers up to 1.3mm thickness. For panoramic prints up to 10 feet long, the P600 accepts the included roll feeder.\n<\/td>\n<td><a href=\".\/images\/events\/ppe2014\/IMG_3844.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[8583]\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\".\/images\/events\/ppe2014\/IMG_3844s.jpg\"><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"200\">\n<p>The P600 uses nine high capacity ink cartridges including three types of black ink for smooth toned black and white photographs.<\/p>\n<p>The many photographs on display at the Epson booth demonstrated excellent quality on a variety of papers including these panoramas.
