Ink runs about $15 to $20 per color so it costs around $100 to fill it up. What the actual print capacity is I don’t know. The ink cartridges for the 1400 are bigger than the ones for my R200 so they do last a bit longer. The 1400 does use individual ink tanks so if one color is out you only throw the one cartridge away. The 1400 needs much more space depth-wise than just its footprint. Of course, this is not quite the true size since it has trays and holders that fold out. It weighs about 25 pounds and measures about 24 x 12 x 9-inches. Super B-size printers are not small and the 1400 proves it. My times are just under 2 minutes for a 4×6 and just over 4 minutes for an 8×10. Of course your times may vary due to image content and speed of your computer. Epson states that a 4×6 takes 46 seconds and an 8×10 is just under 2 minutes (1 min 51 sec). Like the R200 I had before, the 1400 can also print onto printable CD/DVD discs. The R1400 can print on photo paper from 4×6 inches up to 13-inches wide by up to 44-inches long (panoramic paper). The 1400 uses Epson’s Claria Hi-Definition ink, which is stated to be archival – 98 years under glass and 200 years in an album. One of their latest models, the Epson Stylus Photo 1400, is capable of printing on 13×19-inch paper (Super B-size), and has a price that even casual photographers can afford. These ‘photo’ models have, until now, been priced well above the 8.5×11-inch models (letter size). The biggest photo was only 8×10 (letter size – 8.5×11).įor some time now, Epson has had models that could print on paper up to 13-inches wide. The all these models had a limitation in print size. Recently I upgraded to the Epson Stylus Photo R200 since it replaced the large single color cartridge with separate ones, plus it could print onto printable CD/DVD recordable discs.Īll of these Epson models worked great and with the proper Epson photo paper would produce outstanding photographs. From there I went to the Epson Stylus Photo 780 and then the 875DC, which used 6 colors. What made this a ‘photo printer’ was the fact that it had more than just the standard 4 ink colors. My first photo printer was the Epson Stylus Photo 700. To this day, I still use Epson inkjets for my photo printing. Over the years I have owned several Epson photo printers, most professional photographers seem to recommend Epson. Printing photos at home has been possible for some time now with ‘photo’ printers from the likes of HP, Lexmark, and Epson. I am a Mac user and an avid photographer.
