Printer News: Stylus Photo RX680 Takes Epson Into New Territory

Tabbed as the leading member of Epson's new Ultra Hi-Definition triumvirate, the RX680 All-In-One turns out high quality photos at surprisingly fast speeds. This new inkjet prints and copies text at 40 ppm in both color and monochrome. Meanwhile, 4x6 inch photos print in as little as 11 seconds. The RX680 scans at a resolution of 1200x2400 dpi.

If you need to preview and edit your photos before you print, the Epson Stylus Photo RX680 features a 2.5 inch LCD screen and Auto Photo Correction. You can also print PC-free via PictBridge, USB flash drive, memory card, or optional Bluetooth. The Stylus Photo RX680 also features auto-duplexing and two trays, one for plain paper and one for photo paper. This inkjet All-In-One hits stores in September 2007 at an MSRP of $199.99.
