How Does HP’s DesignJet 5000 UV Model Compare to
EPSON’s Stylus Pro 10000 Archival Model?
➤ The HP DJ-5000UV requires a ‘pause’ of ~105 seconds between printed
pages and nozzle checking vs. only ~50 seconds for the EPSON SP10000
– Depending upon how many prints are being produced, this time adds up!
– Again, the EPSON Stylus Pro 10000 Archival Model is more productive
➤ Media ‘skewing’ problems frequently occur on the HP DJ-5000UV
– User must open cover and re-set the media type
– The EPSON Stylus Pro 10000 rarely has media ‘skewing’ problems
➤ HP has significant Metamerism problems with their UV ink
– HP’s DJ-5000UV model has a metamerism value as high as 6 delta E!
– The EPSON Stylus Pro 10000 with Archival Ink has a metamerism value under 3 delta E
➤ EPSON’s Archival Ink Technology produces a wider color gamut than HP’s
UV ink
– EPSON’s Archival Ink Technology is perfect for demanding outdoor signage as well as
photographic and fine art output, while HP’s UV ink can only be used for signage.
