Delivering large-format scanning up to 12.2″ x 17.2″ with 2400 x 4800 dpi resolution, the Expression 13000XL captures originals with exceptional image quality. The scanner leverages Epson Micro Step Drive technology and a 3.8 Dmax for clean, sharp images, and Epson MatrixCCD and ReadyScan LED technologies plus 48-bit color depth to deliver brilliant, vibrant colors with incredible accuracy.
