The Epson Stylus Photo 1400 works with six ink cartridges and features Epson's patented MicroPiezo print head to deliver five sizes of ink droplets as small as 1.5 picoliters. The company claims 8"x 10" photos are printed as fast as 108 seconds and 11"x 14" photos in as fast as 173 seconds. It also prints directly on ink jet printable CDs and DVDs, which can be created a quickly and simply with the included Epson Print CD software and printed out in the convenient front-loading CD tray. The printer is PictBridge compatible and includes a copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements.

The new Claria Ultra Hi-Definition inks are rated to provide three times longer lightfastness than the Epson Stylus Photo 1280 and the high capacity color ink cartridges are said to provide about three times the ink yield.
