The Epson Artisan 800, part of the Artisan line, is considered an all-in-one printer that is very similar to the Epson Artisan 700. The primary difference is that whereas the 700 only features copying, scanning, and printing, the 800 has the capability to fax documents as well. It also includes Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity, 6-color ink, a 3.5” LCD screen for previewing images, an 7.8” inch touch panel, and a maximum resolution of 4800 dpi. The Epson Artisan 800 also uses Claria Dye Hi-Definition Ink, cited by Epson as being of ‘archival quality’ and being able to last 200 years of album storage. Furthermore, it can print 38 regular pages per minute, one 4” x 6” photo in 10 seconds, and an 8” x 10” photo in 50 seconds.
