Very good rundown and promotion of both the 5370 and 900, get the one that is right for you. The fact that epson is using technolgy for the 900/700 in this is reasuring both to present 900/700 owners or those considering. All great printers!
If you have questions on either, or need help choosing what's the best option to meet your specific print demands...just give us a call M-F 8am-5pm CST 1-800-771-9665! We'd be happy to help!
Good review, thank you! I have been waffling about purchasing the P900, but very concerned for the usual issues that I've experienced with my previous Stylus Pro... Clogged heads, wasting so much ink (hundreds of dollars worth annually), because I may go 1-3 months without using the printer... Does the P900 address these concerns, and, how could I justify the additional expense to the P5370 when my quantity is low (and about 10-30 13 x 17, 20-100 8 x 10, and 50-200 5x7 annually)? I want cost savings, and ease of use, and I'm willing to pay the extra for that... Will the ink cost savings in the P5370 and reliability, pay off vs. the savings of cost in the P900? THANK YOU!!!
The SureColor P900 is designed for smaller prints and lower usage than the SureColor P5370. I think that would be your best option. Not using a printer for months at a time will likely cause issues, it's always suggested to print regularly (even just one print) to prevent nozzle and head clogging. If you'd like to discuss in more detail, give one of our experts a call at 1-800-771-9665! We'd be happy to help.
The printer is just a high-noise version of the P900. It lacks: 1. The ability to print on small paper (important for wedding photographers that can offer pictures or books, or books for the couple and prints for the bridesmaids, etc. 2. Borderless printing. This one is normally not that important but it's telling. The P5370 adds a roll cutter and it's less expensive per print than the P900. Nothing else is new or redesign, the head it the one from the P900
Hi, I'm not sure what you mean by high noise but you raise some good points. It's true the P5370 minimum sheet size is 8x10. The P5370 does support borderfree printing on rolls at 10", 13", 14", 16", and 17" widths.
*BEWARE* do not buy this printer. The ink carts are $110ea, with 10 of them, it's $1,100 every time you refill ink. As a small business, this makes printing not even worth it. We were planning on doing posterboard, coasterboard, poster paper and photo prints. Our biz model is down the drain because Epson ink takes such a large cut. Ink + materials should never be more than 10% of the sell price, right now it's at around 30%. Nope! Wish I could return this one.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We understand the challenge of managing ink costs, especially when running a small business! The Epson P5370's larger cartridges are designed to provide a lower cost per print compared to smaller, consumer-level printers, where ink can be much more expensive per milliliter. It’s similar to buying in bulk at Costco - while the upfront cost may seem high, the per-unit cost is actually more efficient. For example, the P5370 ink is currently $96 for a 200 ml cartridge, resulting in a cost per milliliter of $0.48. In comparison, the P700 ink is $37.99 for a 25 ml cartridge, which equates to $1.52 per milliliter - more than three times the price per milliliter of the P5370. We hope this is helpful!

kinda want an ecotank version...
Epson's professional photo printers use cartridges. However, we'll be the first to let you know if an EcoTank format drops.
