Epson America (Los Alamitos, CA) has launched its SureColor R-Series, a pair of roll-to-roll 64-in. printers that use six-color resin ink to produce signage and prints on multiple substrates with repeatable color. The SureColor R5070 and SureColor R5070L are designed for shops seeking versatility, and the machines print up to 290 sq. ft./hr.

According to Epson, the printers have 1.5L ink packs for improved efficiency, and the SureColor R5070L includes 3L per color with hot swap technology for uninterrupted printing. The two machines will be introduced today during Epson’s Insight Days showcase at the PRINTING United Digital Experience.

Again, according to Epson, the SureColor R5070 and SureColor R5070L are the “first of their kind to feature multi-purpose resin ink technology to consistently deliver professional quality wallpapers, fabrics, uncoated papers, and traditional signage at remarkable speeds.”

“The new SureColor R5070 and SureColor R5070L use resin ink to address a true customer need – the confidence that each print – panel to panel, job to job – has repeatable, consistent color,” said Matt McCausland, product manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America.
