Advanced Printhead Technology
This new line-up of printers delivers extraordinary
performance for the professional printing industry, along with unparalleled
colour-matching capabilities, all these enabled by Epson’s PrecisionCore
technology. Possibly the most advanced inkjet printhead technology ever
developed, this revolutionary printhead is capable of producing outstanding
performance and long-lasting quality with ultra-precise control of dot size,
shape and placements.
To further ensure high quality results every time, the print nozzles are
also capable of producing a wide variety of droplet sizes, which enables both
fine detail and quick filling of larger areas—all at a single pass.
Photographic Accuracy and Clarity
UltraChrome Inks
Printers can see the difference the advanced ten-colour screening
algorithm makes. Print results show superior colour and clarity, producing
extremely fine blends and subtle photographic transitions. The most critical
eye will see accurate highlight-to-shadow details with no visible photographic
graininess. Regardless of the viewing light source, prints reveal a consistent
colour balance. Combined with the precise dot placement accuracy of the
PrecisionCore TFP printhead, overall photographic print quality shows a
dramatic improvement.
Efficient Workflow Solutions
Epson Color Calibration Utility
To enable you to work more efficiently across multiple networked
printers, the SC-P9000 comes with the Epson Color Calibration Utility. This
measures colour density and concentration and allows you to manage your printer
network from a central point which makes calibrating your printers easier and
faster.
Once the base printer is set as the standard, the derivatives can
calibrate their colours based on the base printer by transferring the colour
chart. What’s more, the calibrated data can be used for all media types and
print modes and is stored directly on the printer, eliminating the hassle of
exporting and importing every time you share data.
The overall benefit is a significant reduction in the amount of manual
process required to run your printers.
Superior Connectivity
The new machines come with Hi-Speed USB 2.0 and Ethernet connectivity,
with support for professional Epson photographic drivers for Macintosh® and
Windows®, as well as being supported by most leading third-party software RIPs
and workflows.
Advanced Media Handling and Loading
To make the printing process quicker and simpler, the Epson SC-P9000 printer
offers:
Epson ePlaten™ Technology
Highly accurate automatic media loading and handling and fast,
spindle-free roll media support for less chance of media damage
Professional Media Handling
The P-series is compatible with virtually any media type; in roll or cut
sheet, up to 24 or 44 inches wide, as well as an accurate loading of cut-sheet
media of up to 1.5 mm thick posterboard. All media is front-loaded via a unique
straight-through media path. A printer and driver based media identification
and synchronisation system provides virtually error-free media use. Available
on the SC-P9000, there is an optional Automatic Take-up Reel System allowing
large print runs to go through unattended.
Epson ePlaten Media Loading Technology
For less chance of media damage and to simplify the overall roll and
cut-sheet media loading process, the printers offer accurate and automatic
media loading movement, skew adjustment and tracking.
Spindle-Free Roll Media Loading
Designed to work with Epson’s ePlaten technology, the user-adjustable
roll media adapters accept either 2 or 3-inch media cores. A simple tension
lever ensures quick and secure media core loading. Additional media adapter
pairs are available as accessories for efficient roll media switching.
This system is useful for tracking partially used media rolls. It
enables real-time, automatic measurement of remaining roll media length as well
as auto barcode tagging of remaining roll media for faster reloading.
Intelligent
High-Capacity Ink System
Pressurised ink cartridge technology ensures that
ink is reliably delivered at all print speeds, while dramatically reducing the
physical size of the ink cartridges. The cartridges themselves are available in
sizes up to 700ml.
