• Introducing the Expression Photo XP-950

  Ultra-compact printing of large, beautifully detailed photographs is what the cleverly designed XP-950 is all about. It has a footprint more typical of an A4 printer, but its compact design can issue fabulously detailed A3-sized prints and photos.

It's what's inside that makes the XP-950 stand out; from the inks to the printhead, all elements are designed by us and created to work in harmony. The results are great looking, long-lasting prints that photographers will be proud to display and share.It's not all about photography.It may be a cutting-edge A3 printer, but the XP-950 has all the familiar features, too.
