Epson has long been renowned for its home photo printers. Fully understanding the importance people place on preserving memories through photographs, the company has now expanded its range of inkjet photo printers into the commercial sphere. The first of its new range of commercial photo printers is the SureLab SL-D3000, which is aimed at photo print shops and photo studios.
Before the emergence of inkjet technology for professional applications, print shops had to rely on silver halide-based photo labs. However, because these traditional systems rely on chemical reactions to print photos, they require careful management and disposal of chemicals, and also a water supply. Against this, Epson’s new system does not require shop owners to dispose of waste chemicals.
