🖨️ Core Print Technology

  • PrecisionCore™ Print Head: Uses Epson’s PrecisionCore technology for reliable, high-resolution printing with sharp detail.

  • Color Output: Produces four-color output (typically cyan, magenta, yellow plus either gloss or matte black), giving vibrant, full-color labels suitable for a wide range of applications.

  • Color Matching: Built-in color matching tools (including ICC profile and spot color matching) help ensure accurate and consistent color reproduction across print runs.


📊 Print Performance

  • Print Speed: Up to 100 mm/sec (approx. 4 inches/sec) at 300 × 600 dpi.
