Epson Stylus CX6400

The Epson CX6400 is at  the higher end of Epson CX range of multifunction devices. The others we have include the CX5400 and the CX3200 decreasing in price respectively. Although the idea of the CX6400 is very much the same as these other printers, we are now moving into a higher bracket of quality for those of you that want exceptional print quality and speed. For example the CX6400 can pump out up to a maximum of 22 pages per minute and has exceptional print and scanning DPI (details below). Plus you get all the usual advantages of having a multifunction device on your desktop such as space saving and a major cost saving for only having to buy a single machine. Special to the Epson range of multifunction devices is the separate colour cartridges to prevent waste. When your red runs out you only have to replace the red cartridge not the whole lot. Plus great border free printing for fantastic A4 prints with no white edges.

Printing

The CX6400 can create great quality prints in black, colour and in photo quality. It can also be switched to economy mode and produce prints at anything up to 22pages per minute. Using DURABrite ink from Epson you can guarantee stunning photos and documents where the colour really stands out at you also making it waterproof and smudge proof to prevent those little accidents from ruing your photo prints. Plus the great cost saving feature of having separate colour cartridges means no waste, you only have to replace the colour that runs out.

The CX 6400 has the ability to print photo's directly from your digital camera's memory card. This allows you to quickly and easily get that photo you want in your hand from your camera in minutes. That certainly beats the one hour service on the high street for normal prints. The borderfree option gives you great A4 prints with no border full maximum size prints and no cutting required before framing.

  • Manufacturer's Description

    The EPSON Stylus CX6400 is an excellent all-in-one solution for the home and office. EPSON DURABrite™ inks ensure superb colour quality even on plain or recycled media, while a built-in multi-compatible memory card reader adds amazing photo printing flexibility. You can print direct from your memory card without using a computer!

    A compact design, a wide variety of features
    Whether a family or home office user or a school, college or business, the EPSON Stylus CX6400 is an ideal printing, scanning and photocopying solution. Its all-round appeal is enhanced by its compact dimensions, saving space on your desk without compromising quality. From fantastic home photo enlargements to standalone business document copying, you can be sure of simple, fast, high quality results.

    Makes digital photography even easier
    Printing directly from a memory card - without even using a computer – is the simplest way to great photos. Just insert your memory card into the integrated slot on the front of the printer, then print out an index sheet with thumbnails of all your images. Simply tick the chosen image or images, scan the index sheet and the EPSON Stylus CX6400 will detect the selected images and produce a superb photo print. You can even adjust the image settings via the front control panel.

    Borderfree prints up to A4 size
    You can always rely on top quality colour and clarity when your EPSON Stylus CX6400 prints out a photo. However, you can achieve an even more professional finish and make an even bigger impact by printing enlargements up to A4 size without any borders.

    Memory Card Flexibility
    Images and documents can be scanned on the EPSON Stylus CX6400 and saved directly to a memory card. You will then be able to call up and print these documents time and time again with or without your computer.

    EPSON DURABrite™ inks make a real difference
    With EPSON DURABrite™ inks, you can produce brighter, sharper, more colourful prints that are smudgeproof, waterproof and fade resistant. This is possible on just about any media – including plain or recycled paper. Dry to the touch as soon as they emerge, your prints look great, are ready to share straight away and are amazingly durable too.

    Flexible, cost effective ink system
    There’s no more ink wastage because each of the four colours is contained in its own cartridge, so you only need to change the ink that runs out. Also, if the level in a cartridge is too low for an upcoming print job, you can exchange it for a new one – then you can replace the original later. Thanks to a special self-sealing system, the ink will be as good as new, and the Status Monitor will recognise and report the new level.
