Print Solutions Wide Format Solutions


Epson is adding two new 64 inch dye sublimation printers to its successful line up of printers. The innovative SureColor F9500 and SC-F9500H models will replace the SureColor F9400 and SC-F9400H, offering significant enhancements in productivity, usability, and image quality.

 

The printers offer a compact, space saving design, reducing height by over 300 mm compared to their predecessors. This low profile and neat design allows for installation in height restrictive spaces and provides an additional workspace with a flat top design, perfect for placing a laptop.

 

A large, 4.3 inch touchscreen with a tilt function displays current printer status, including ink levels and media settings, ensuring users have all critical information at their fingertips.

 

The SureColor F9500 series achieves significant productivity gains with the inclusion of a new, larger PrecisionCore MicroTFP printhead, increasing productivity by up to 30% in 4C mode.

 

The Media Lifter facilitates single user operation, making set up simple and practical.

 


Epson continues to push the boundaries of colour reproduction with the SureColor F9500H model, which can be configured with orange and violet inks. This configuration expands the colour gamut by 20%, delivering more vivid and smooth colours. Additionally, the printers support fluorescent inks, producing bright, vibrant sportswear, soft signage, and fashion applications.

 

Light inks combined with CMYK reduce graininess and improve tonal gradation, enhancing print quality, particularly on rigid substrates. The SureColor F9500 series can also process CMYK image data and output using fluorescent inks.

 

Epson’s commitment to reliability is evident in the SC-F9500 series with the integration of Nozzle Verification Technology (NVT) and Part OverLap (POL) features. These technologies automatically detect nozzle conditions and adjust print quality accordingly, ensuring consistent and reliable performance.

User replaceable printheads can be replaced without special tools or service call outs, reducing downtime and maintaining high productivity. The bulk ink solution, with 1.6 litre ink packs containing 45% more volume than previous models, further minimises printer downtime and simplifies ink replacement.

 

‘Epson is proud to introduce the SureColor F9500 and SC-F9500H, which embody our commitment to innovation,’ commented Phil McMullin, commercial and industrial head of sales, Epson UK. ‘The new compact design, coupled with enhanced productivity and usability features, sets a new benchmark in dye sublimation printing. Our expanded inksets deliver unparalleled image quality, while our advanced reliability features ensure consistent performance. These printers are designed to meet the diverse needs of our customers, from vibrant sportswear to high quality soft signage, with efficiency and excellence.

 

‘Epson is committed to advancing technology that meets the evolving needs of our customers. With the SureColor F9500 and F9500H, we are delivering a solution that not only enhances productivity and image quality but also supports sustainable practices.’

 

The new SureColor F9500 and SC-F9500H will be available from October 2024.
