They offer low cost printing solution with four individual ink cartridges from only £6.99 each, as with all of Epson’s new consumer printer range for 2006, you save money by only replacing the colour you use. They also feature Epson DURABrite Ultra ink that is highly durable and is smudge, fade and water resistant on either plain or photo paper; a printing resolution of up to 5760x1440dpi and Epson’s unique Micro Piezo™ technology.

Epson Creativity Suite software helps you to easily manage, file and print your photos without the need to open other programmes simultaneously. With its user-friendly interface you can find your desired files and then choose the feature you wish to perform, for example, open, print or save into another folder.
The Epson Stylus D88 Plus is ideal for a busy household or home office with everyday printing needs, for example, homework, business reports, internet printing and photos. It includes ArcSoft PhotoImpression® 5.1 software to help you get creative with your photos.
