The D88 and the slightly cheaper D78 are Epson's latest, four-colour, general purpose inkjet printers aimed at the home user, both for domestic and home-based business needs.
The D88 Plus is a squat, though relatively compact, silver and black printer with a traditional upright paper feeder at the back, and it weighs in at a relatively light 4.2kg. Apart from some basic control buttons on the top (paper and ink replacement warnings and the on/off control) that's pretty much all you get. Even though this is a budget machine, it was disappointing to see only a USB 1.1 connection in this 2.0 era.First of all this is a pigment ink printer. As such it is only the second Epson consumer-grade desktop printer to use pigmented inks, the first one being the Epson 2000p.
Second, the inks used in the C80 are of a brand new formulation used exclusively in the C80 at the time of this review (November 2001). Named DuraBrite these inks are said by Epson to have a 70 years light fastness when used in combination with Epsonºs Archival Matte paper. Certainly, this is less than half the light fastness offered by the Epson 2000p inks which are rated at 200 years with Epson Archival Matte Paper. However, in my estimate 70 years is long enough to qualify these inks as archival.
