New Epson P-Series printer to debut at Visual Impact

Epson has announced the upcoming release of the SureColor P20560, saying it is the most advanced 64-inch large-format printer in the P-Series to date.  The new model succeeds the top selling SureColor P20070 and will be showcased for the first time in Australia on the Epson stand during Visual Impact Brisbane from the 17th to the 19th of July 2024.

The printer comes with significant upgrades compared to the current model, offering faster processing speeds and an expanded 12-colour ink set that is shared with the SureColor P7560 and P9560, providing a wider colour gamut and up to 99% Pantone coverage. A newly designed bulk ink system feeds the SC-P20560 and ships with 12 cost-effective 1.6L ink packs designed for high-volume print jobs. A new 4.3-inch optical touch colour LCD, optional 1Tb SSD and Adobe PostScript 3 improve workflow and efficiency with the SC-P20560. Epson Edge Print PRO RIP software is also bundled with the machine, making it a comprehensive solution for professional printing workflows.

The SC-P20560 shares the same 2.64-inch PrecisionCore printhead as the current model, which has become known for outstanding image quality, adding two additional lines to support the 12-colour ink set. Usability improvements that streamline workflows and media handling include the availability of Epson Media Installer, Epson Print Layout, and Epson Print Automate, as well as a spindle-less roll adaptor, optional take-up reel for roll-to-roll printing, front operation, and easy media roll loading.

The new 64-inch machine delivers a range of features designed to enhance business productivity, including:
