The connections are Hi-Speed USB 2.0, 100Base-T Ethernet or Wi-Fi – both the 2.4 and 5GHz bands. Included is the Epson Media Installer that allows other Epson, third-party and custom profiles to be added to the printer.

The maintenance box will be close to full, hence provision of the spare included in the package. EPSON SUPERFINE SUPERPHOTO FULLAll of this means that the ink levels after setup will not register as full and could be as low as 15-20% capacity. In any line feed system, a fair amount of ink and shipping fluid is used to charge up the system, with some being directed to the replaceable maintenance box. It should be noted that the SureColor P700 employs a line feed system from stationary 25ml capacity cartridges to the print head, rather than the use of smaller cartridges that feed direct to the print head by riding on top. At the end, a message appears which treads, “Some ink from the ink cartridges was used for filling ink to the tip of the nozzle”. The 15-minute ink initialization process shouldn’t be interrupted by opening any panels, otherwise you’ll need to start from scratch with yet more ink consumed.

Setting up the Epson P900 The removable maintenance box is already commonplace in A2 and larger format printers, and when full, it is simply removed and replaced. When the pad is saturated it needs to be replaced by a technician or some messy homemade effort applied to soak up the ink. Normally waste ink from head cleaning cycles is dropped into an absorbent pad with printers of A3+ format and smaller. The SureColor P700 is the first 13-inch A3+ printer to include a replaceable maintenance box. The P700 has individual lines for the matte black and gloss black inks - like the larger-format 17-inch A2+ Epson SureColor P900 (opens in new tab) which was announced at the same time. ![]()
