Who buys the SureColor P7570 and what they print

Who buys it, from DTG’s sales and support work in Tampa: Epson SureColor P-series printers like the P7570 are bought by art publishers, fine art reproduction shops, giclee printers and artists; photographers (commercial, portrait, landscape and fine art); photo fulfillment shops and galleries; and commercial offset printers, ad agencies and corporate in-plant graphics departments that use them for color proofing.

What they print on: photo papers (luster, gloss, semigloss, semi-matte, fiber and baryta), artist canvas (gloss, matte and satin) and fine art papers (smooth and textured). Browse fine art and giclee media and photo media, or ask DTG which papers fit the P7570.

P7570 vs P7370 vs P6570: how the 24-inch Epson P-series differs

The P7570 is the PRO12 member of the 24-inch group. The P7370 uses ten-color PRO10, and the P6570D, P6570DE and P6570E use six-color PRO6. The extra Orange and Green channels on the P7570 are what Epson points to for its widest color coverage, which matters most for fine art reproduction and spot-color work. For portrait and general photographic output at 24 inches, the PRO10 and PRO6 models cover most needs. DTG can help you match the model to your media and customers.

Is the SureColor P7570 the right size? DTG’s advice

“Which size should I buy?” is the question DTG hears most before a sale. For most print businesses our answer is 44 inches wide: it is the sweet spot. The most common mistake we see is buying too narrow. Almost every customer who buys a 24-inch printer and succeeds with it ends up upgrading to 44 inches, so if you expect your print work to grow, size up now.

The P7570 is a 24-inch printer. If you are likely to grow, compare the 44-inch SureColor P9570, P9370 and P8570D.

Before you buy, DTG walks you through cost per print and cost per square foot for the work you plan to do. Call a print specialist at 656.232.1877.

Epson Preferred Plus extended service plans for the P7570 are available at time of hardware purchase. Call DTG in Tampa, FL at 656.232.1877 for details.

Is the 24-inch P7570 the right size, or should I buy a 44-inch printer?

The P7570 prints up to 24 inches wide. For most print businesses DTG recommends 44 inches, the sweet spot, and almost every customer who buys a 24-inch printer and succeeds with it ends up upgrading to 44 inches. Call 656.232.1877 and DTG will work through cost per print and cost per square foot for your work.

Is the 12-color ink set on the P7570 right for my work?

It depends on what you print. The P7570 uses 12-color Epson UltraChrome PRO12 pigment ink. Epson’s current P-series ink sets are 6-color PRO6 (P6570 and P8570 families), 10-color PRO10 (P700, P900, P5370, P7370 and P9370) and 12-color PRO12 (P7570, P9570 and P20570). Tell a DTG print specialist what you print and we will recommend the right ink set.

What papers and canvas do DTG customers print on with the P7570?

P-series customers at DTG print on photo papers (luster, gloss, semigloss, semi-matte, fiber and baryta), artist canvas (gloss, matte and satin) and fine art papers (smooth and textured). Ask DTG which papers and sizes fit the P7570.

What does DTG provide after I buy a P7570?

Installation and training are available for every printer DTG sells, for a fee. Tech support on DTG’s toll-free line is free, and DTG builds free custom ICC profiles for customers who buy a P-series printer from DTG. You also get DTG’s color management expertise and more than 30 years of digital printing experience.

Does DTG make custom ICC profiles for the Epson SureColor P7570?

Yes. DTG builds free custom ICC profiles for customers who buy the P7570 from DTG, matched to your papers and workflow. Call DTG in Tampa at 656.232.1877 for details.

Is the P7370 good enough, or do I need the P7570?

It depends on who you print for. For consumer-grade photography or artwork, DTG finds the 10-color P7370 is plenty. If you print for professional photographers or artists, the wider color gamut of the 12-color P7570 is a must: its Epson UltraChrome PRO12 ink adds Orange and Green to the ten colors the P7370 uses. And if you run a print service, your competition is printing on the best equipment, so you need the best too. The same advice applies at 44 inches to the P9370 and P9570. Call DTG at 656.232.1877 to talk through your work.

Is the P7570 a good printer for color proofing?

Yes. The P7570 is part of the P7370/P9370 or P7570/P9570 platform DTG recommends for proofing, because it offers a wider gamut for Pantone colors and the most accurate proofs. Epson lists its optional in-line 24-inch SpectroProofer UVS as compatible with the P7570; it measures color right on the printer and needs a supported third-party RIP. DTG’s gold standard for proofing is the 44-inch P9570 with Epson’s 44-inch SpectroProofer UVS. DTG does not recommend the P6570 or P8570 family for proofing.

How many prints will I get from the starter ink that comes with my printer?

It depends on what you print, since some colors run out faster than others. Light Black (gray) usually goes first, because it’s used across the whole tonal range, even in color prints. The wide-gamut colors last longer, depending on your files. From our installs here at DTG, plan on about 10 to 15 24×36″ prints before you need a new Light Black cartridge. If you print every day or every other day, buy a full ink set with your printer or soon after.

How much maintenance does a SureColor P- or T-series printer need?

Very little. You’ll change ink, load paper and replace the maintenance tank. We recommend cleaning around the capping station and printhead area about every 6 months. Do it a little more or less often depending on how much you print.

Why is my print a slightly different size than my file?

Print length can vary a little depending on your media and settings. Our video with Mirage on print length correction shows why it happens and how to fix it.
