So finally to sum it all up Epson Stylus Photo 1390 is a photo class printer that performs jobs at the best possible time and gives you a plethora of features and is surely to be on the top list of photo enthusiasts.
The Epson Stylus Photo 1390 is not exactly meant for home-based printing that is why we think the company has paid lesser importance to the looks and beautification of this mammoth printer.
To start with the Epson Stylus Photo 1390 gets its big size due to its ability to print A3 borderless prints. The printer utilises Epson’s patented INKdividual 6 colour cartridge system. The Epson Stylus Photo 1390 offers print resolutions of up to maximum of 5,760 x 1,440 dpi, along with advanced Variable Sized Droplet Technology (VSDT), which allows the printer to utilise different size ink droplets as per the job requirement .
The Epson Stylus Photo 1390 comes bundled with Epson’s very own photo printing utility. This utility allows the user to print with the optimum quality. The utility also allows you to do some minor corrections to the pictures too. The inclusion of Adobe RGB support for SLR class printing and RAW file support for this printer is an added advantage for photo enthusiasts.
Printing speed is good and speedy enough to finish your chores in time, the Epson Stylus Photo 1390 took 34.1 seconds to print a full A4 page text and images in colour, while an A4 photo print (best quality, borderless) took just 2 minutes and 25 seconds to complete.
Quality of prints was good but not the best, because even at best settings there was some loss in picture sharpness. The good thing is that in a borderless print we did not see any grains that are common in most colour photo inkjet printers.
So finally to sum it all up Epson Stylus Photo 1390 is a photo class printer that performs jobs at the best possible time and gives you a plethora of features and is surely to be on the top list of photo enthusiasts.
