More Control. More Profit.

With the Epson SureLab D3000, time saved becomes an asset, while photographic print quality becomes your greatest competitive advantage. Now is the opportunity to take control of your photographic printing, while bringing your photography and business to the next level.

Imagine printing archival quality photographs your clients will cherish for generations, while achieving unmatched colour accuracy, shadow-to-highlight detail, clarity and sharpness. You can accomplish all this, in-house, on your schedule, without lab fees or delays — even during those busy holiday seasons.

Even more remarkable is the cost savings you’ll enjoy on every print. In most cases, you’ll significantly reduce your cost-per-print, while providing far superior quality than you get from the lab — all on your schedule.

Keeping your workflow simple, Epson has made SureLab fully compatible with virtually any Microsoft Windows-based application by providing standard Epson Professional Photographic printer drivers. This allows SureLab to print directly from the most popular photographic applications, from Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom to Darkroom software.

And best of all, SureLab is fully supported by Epson’s world-class service and support teams. Every SureLab comes standard with one year of free phone support and usually next-business-day on-site service. Plus, with Epson's optional extended service programs, you can cover your SureLab up to five years in total.

Just imagine the competitive advantages — greater control over your workflow, extraordinary print quality, increased productivity and profitability, and more satisfied customers. SureLab just makes good business sense.

¹ Print speeds are based on print engine speed only. Total throughput times depend upon front-end software, file size, printer resolution, networking, number of pages per print job and frequency of jobs, etc.

² Print permanence lasting for generations is based on accelerated testing of prints, on specialty media, displayed indoors in a glass frame or stored in an album. Actual print permanence will vary according to media, printed image, display conditions, light intensity, temperature, humidity and atmospheric conditions. Epson does not guarantee the permanence of prints. For maximum life, prints should be displayed under glass, UV filter or lamination, or properly stored.
