Suitable for dedicated signmakers and print specialists, the manufacturer said the new 64-inch (1.62m) SC-S9100 enables the creation of professional displays for billboards, wallpapers, vehicle wrappings, and POS.
The machine offers a productivity increase of up to 9% compared with the SC-S80600.
With 11 colours including CMYK, red, orange, light black, light cyan, light magenta, a newly introduced green, and optional white, the SC-S9100 supports both 1,500ml and 800ml ink pouches.
The inclusion of the green ink expands the colour gamut, delivering smoother gradations.
Epson said the device, which also comes with the manufacturer’s own Edge Print Pro print management software, can print directly onto substrates such as clear film, vinyl, canvas, and photographic paper.
Featuring the new PrecisionCore Micro TFP user-replaceable printhead, the machine is complemented by an additional drying system that ensures prints are cured before reaching the take-up reel.
The new flat-top design provides additional workspace for users to place a laptop connected to the printer, while the transparent lid enables easy monitoring of printing status and quality.
Meanwhile, a nip lever secures the media during loading, and the large opening facilitates easy media setting and user maintenance. Epson Cloud Solution Port (ECSP) supports remote monitoring and management through ECSP.
Phil McMullin, head of sales for C&I at Epson UK, said: “The SC-S9100 represents a significant leap forward in signage printing technology. With enhanced productivity, user-replaceable printheads, wide ink gamut and exceptional colour accuracy, users can improve their service offerings while minimising downtime.
“Epson provides a complete solution for the SC-S9100, ensuring reliable performance, and the low-profile, neat design contributes to improved usability and enables installation in height-restricted spaces, maximising available workspace.”
Epson said the SC-S9100 will be available “later this year”. Pricing has not yet been disclosed.
