The flagship SureColor F9200 printer utilizes dual Epson PrecisionCore(® )TFP(®) printheads for high-speed, industrial-level roll-to-roll productivity with superior dot control and precise, repeatable performance. Each printer offers continuous productivity and less downtime with an integral and easily refillable, high-capacity bulk ink system and an improved post-platen heater for seamless media handling and faster drying times for continuous production.
"Since Epson launched its first true dye-sublimation printers in 2013, we have been diligently working to enhance the technology to meet the demands of industrial manufacturers," said Tim Check, product manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America, Inc.
