The OEM has released the “next-generation” Expression Premium XP-640 “small-in-one”.
The new printer is said to be “filled with creative features” and delivers “superior photo quality”, said a press release. There is automatic two-sided printing and the ability to print 4”x 6” and 8”x10” photos within 20 seconds. Wireless connectivity is via Wi-Fi Direct for direct printing from Apple and other mobile devices without the need for a router, and the printer is compatible with Epson’s Creative Print App, allowing Facebook and Instagram photos to be printed.
Epson’s Claria Premium Ink produces photos that are “smudge-, scratch-, water- and fade-resistant” for easy sharing. The Expression Premium XP-640 is compatible with Epson Connect for all online printing requirements and has a 2.7” LCD screen plus built=in USB and memory card slot “for PC-free printing”, and separate trays for “printing photos and CD/DVDs”, as well as cloud connectivity to save scanned projects to.
Monika Dees, Senior Product Marketing Manager for Consumer Inkjets at Epson America, said: “Printed photos are tangible memories that get passed down generations, displayed on family gallery walls, and shared as gifts with loved ones. The Expression Premium XP-640 is the solution to creating lab-quality prints at home so no matter the occasion, high-quality, borderless, photos can be printed and shared quickly.”
The new model is now available and is priced at $149.99 (€133).
