The Epson Stylus DX6000 comes in a stylish black and silver tone, height and width (463 x 354 x 181mm) and 6.5kg, with front-loading digital camera memory card slots (supporting CF Type II, Memory Stick, SD/MMC and xD-Picture card) with PictBridge support and a USB 2.0 slot above for direct printing.

The print resolution is 5,760 x 1,440 optimised dpi (dots per inch) but the print and copy speeds have significantly improved over older models as 27ppm for black text (as opposed to 20ppm) and 28 seconds for 10 x 15cm (6 x 4-inch) photos instead of 81 seconds.

Epson have added a 2-inch colour LCD viewer so you can preview your photos before you print them (always a nice feature).
