Introduction to Epson SureColor S Series Printers

Designed for unprecedented levels of productivity, superior image quality, and steadfast reliability, the Epson SureColor S Series printers are the best signage printers on the market. If you’re looking to print banners, adhesive vinyl, canvas, package proofing, stickers, or labels, there’s an Epson SureColor printer for you. Epson’s innovative new ink technology allows printing professionals to deliver same day printing, lamination, and delivery – a substantial competitive advantage for any printing business. 

Epson SureColor 64-inch roll-to-roll solvent printers are equipped with newly developed PrecisionCore TFP print heads and PrecisionDot screening technology for first-class print quality. Epson SureColor printers feature high-caliber printing speeds – up to 550 square feet per hour – making them the fastest in their price range. The Epson SureColor printers are also environmentally responsible, with superior energy efficiency and no special ventilation or air purification required. 

Investing in an Epson SureColor printer enables your business to stay ahead of competitors. SureColor printers provide same-day lamination and shipping with Epson’s quick-drying UltraChrome ink.

All printers in the S Series include automated maintenance systems and built-in air filtration to save time your business time on maintenance and increase productivity.
