The SureColor Technical series feature an advanced design with precision components, a solid laser welded chassis and fine tolerance robotic assembly. They take as little as 28 seconds to print an A1 image and are built to provide consistent high-speed operation with accurate media transport, minimum movement and low noise. All models incorporate Epson's patented Thin Film Print heads with micro-fine nozzles that support resolutions up to 2880x1440dpi. The heads are factory fitted to ensure maximum print precision and are designed to provide durable performance without the cost or inconvenience of regular replacement3. Integrated Variable-size Droplet Technology adds additional clarity to fine detail while enabling enhanced half-tone results and precise ink density control for superior colour and fill consistency with minimum consumption.
Epson UltraChrome Ink features an all-pigment construction with maximum colour precision and image durability on the widest range of media types. The XD formulation provides an extended gamut with particular focus in red and green for POS, display and presentation work. It provides output with vibrant colour, solid and consistent fills, crisp text and lines with a minimum width of just 0.02mm. When applied to quality media the ink is resistant to scratch and moisture damage which can be highly useful for plans and other working documents. The ink set incorporates both a matte and photo black with the printer automatically switching between the two depending on the output requirement.
Economic to Run with Flexible Media Support
The SureColor Technical series comes in three sizes to suit different output requirements. 24-inch (610mm) wide models supports output up to A1 and can be purchased in either a desktop or floor-standing configuration. 36-inch wide (914mm) models support output up to A0 while 44-inch (1118mm) wide models support B0 and larger. All models feature optimised running costs with low ink consumption, ultra-low power consumption and large cost-effective waste tanks. They use ink cartridges which can be ordered individually in a choice of 110ml, 350ml and 700ml sizes to suit different operational and costs per print requirements.
The Technical series has been designed to accept a wide range of roll and single sheet media. They support stock as light as 80gsm for draft work and have a special straight path that supports stock as thick as 1.5mm for presentation and model work. The series features a heavy-duty high-speed auto-cutter that will cut a wide variety of media and slice an A1 sheet in just 2s. Roll media is quick and easy to load with a spindle-less design that facilitates easy exchange. For users who work with multiple media types, additional optional Roll Media Adaptor kits are available for pre-attachment to stored rolls along with Roll Belts for tension maintenance and edge protection. All printers have an inbuilt Roll Media Barcode Management system that tracks consumption and enables automatic re-configuration upon loading. For ultimate flexibility 36” and 44” models can be ordered in a Dual Roll version with fast 26s roll exchange. Roll selection can be made manually or automatically with configurable parameters. Images can be auto rotated for optimum media consumption and large print runs spanned over multiple rolls for efficient uninterrupted production.
Easy to Install and Flexible to Operate
The SureColor Technical series incorporates high-speed networking with support for the latest addressing and security protocols. Designed to operate with standard Macintosh® and Windows® applications, they also support HP-GL/2 and RTL emulation for specialist CAD, GIS and mathematical applications2. All models operate with convenient all-front loaded consumables and feature a compact design with all connections located on the right to enable operation against a wall or in a corner2. They provide remote email error and job status notification, incorporate a high degree of self-maintenance and have in-built help. All floor-standing configurations come with a stand and media bin with adjustable output presentation. Single Roll models feature an adjustable bin that holds up to 20 sheets with flat or folded display. Dual Roll models feature an extra-large bin that can be completely stowed when not in use. An optional auto take-up reel is available for the T7200 to enable high volume roll-to-roll production.4
The technical series ships with a suite of applications designed to enhance operational ease and management flexibility. Printers can be controlled from the desktop, from the large front panel colour LCD, or remotely via a web based utility. An in-built email system enables remote job status and error reporting while an included plug-in utility enables easy printing from MS Office applications. An optional accounting tool is available for free download to enable cost control and simplified job billing.
For printers used in a workgroup environment an optional 320GB HDD provides fast and cost-effective job spooling complete with flexible queue management, predictive consumables analysis, and rapid direct reprint. An optional PS Module provides the same functionality with additional high-speed hardware-based Adobe® original Postscript® 3™ image processing. PS functionality operates via hot-folder 'drag-n-drop' with configurable job processing and selectable document security. An optional Wide Format Scanner is also available for use with 36” and 44” printers. The scanner supports media up to 38” wide and provides high-speed high-resolution colour scan, copy and document sharing facilities. The Scanner and PS Module can be purchased together with relevant printer models to provide a complete high-performance MFP system5.

2 The HP-GL/2 & HP RTL implementation employed by different applications can vary. If this facility is important please contact Epson or one of our dealer partners to confirm compatibility and operational functionality prior to purchase.
3 When printers are installed, maintained and operated appropriately using Genuine Epson UltraChrome XD ink then print heads are covered under warranty with free on-site replacement subject to conditions outlined in the Epson Warranty Statement. Cover can be extended through the purchase of optional Service Packs up to a maximum total of 3 years subject to the same conditions.
