New Printer Available in Australia

New Printer Available in Australia

2005-05-12 by andrew

I exchanged email with Epson Australia today and was informed that the Stylus Pro 4800 is 
already available in Australia, though I haven't verified whether anyone has stock yet.

I was delighted to see the retail price is AU$2,995 (ex GST), thus around AU$3,295. No 
doubt street prices will be lower. Compare this to the AU$4,000 that the 4000 cost up 
until now. Apparently the 4000 has been reduced to AU$2,695 (ex GST).

Is the driver available for download yet? I want to look at the 
included profiles.

Not that I can see. The printers have been added to the drop-down lists, but search 
returns no drivers.

I even went so far as to troll through several of the Epson FTPs to 
see what files had been recently added, but still no luck.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
