Epson SureColour: delivering choice and flexibility

Offering a choice of productivities and from 4-10 colours, including white and metallic, the SureColor S series of printers demonstrate cost-effective, high-speed productivity printing onto a range of materials such as vinyl, canvas, clear film, photographic paper and a range of banner substrates. The combination of Epson’s UltraChrome GSX Ink and proven Micro Piezo TFP printhead delivers clarity, fine detailing and smooth blends at resolutions up to 1440 x 1440 dpi.

Also on display will be soft signage, apparel, gift and promotional products to demonstrate the flexibility of the SC-F Series dye sublimation printers.

The printers use Epson UltraChrome DS ink, a specially-developed new aqueous ink, which produces outstanding images with vibrant colours, intense blacks, sharp contours and smooth gradations. Finally, Epson’s first direct-to-garment printer – the SureColor SC-F2000 – will be demonstrating fast, efficient T-shirt printing.
