Overview
Photography enthusiasts will love the outstanding, photographic quality prints produced by the XP-720. We believe that great photos should look even better when printed, so our 5-colour Claria Premium individual ink system includes a Photo Black to help produce outstanding, glossy photos time and time again.
But it's not just the photos - the XP-720 also handles text documents, producing crisp, clear emails, letters, invoices and text documents of any kind in a quality that wouldn't look out of place on the boardroom table. They are quick-drying and durable too.
The XP-720 might be a cutting-edge printer, but it still has familiar features. It scans, copies and prints, while seamlessly switching between different media. A motorised control panel and automatic-opening output tray make operation easy, for truly hassle-free printing.
Enjoy great photos and sharp text
We understand that producing quality photos and text is essential, which is why the XP-720 uses our Claria Premium Ink. Its formulation combines long-lasting pigment ink with the brightness of dye ink, which is ideal for helping documents and photos keep their lustre over time. With photography enthusiasts in mind, the XP-720 uses a Photo Black ink that gives a professional look, while a further pigment black handles graphics and text with ease, giving a crisp, sharp appearance. Together they make up a five-colour inkset that ensures ultra-clear and precise text and graphics. Photos up to A4 size are equally as stunning with rich, vibrant colours and glossy blacks. Your treasured memories will last for generations; photos printed with Claria Premium ink will last up to 300 years in a photo album2.
