Epson unveils new compact 64-inch high-quality signage printer ideal for professional sign makers

SureColor-S9100 designed to meet the rigorous demands of professional signage production

Epson, a global leader in printing technology, introduces its latest breakthrough in the signage printing market, the SC-S9100. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of professional signage production, this innovative printer offers exceptional quality, efficiency, and ease-of-use.

The SC-S9100 is perfect for dedicated sign makers and PSPs, creating superb, colour-accurate prints on a wide variety of media types. This high-performance printer is designed for businesses seeking a high-quality, large-format printer with a wider choice of inks for various print applications.

Complete with Epson’s own Edge Print Pro print management software, the SC-S9100 enables the creation of professional displays for billboards, wallpapers, vehicle wrappings, and POS. With 11 colours, including CMYK, Red, Orange, Light Black, Light Cyan, Light Magenta, Green, and optional White, the SC-S9100 helps customers achieve a broader colour gamut.

The SC-S9100 is a compact 64-inch eco-solvent printer, tailored for small, medium, and large production houses engaged in general signage, wallpaper applications, and direct printing on substrates such as clear film, vinyl, canvas, and photographic paper. Featuring the new PrecisionCore Micro TFP user-replaceable printhead, the SC-S9100 boasts enhanced productivity, complemented by an additional drying system that ensures prints are cured before reaching the take-up reel. The inclusion of a new green ink expands the colour gamut, delivering smoother gradations.

The SC-S9100’s low-profile design is ideal for height-restricted spaces, allowing easy status checks of multiple units. The new flat-top design provides additional workspace for users to place a laptop connected to the printer, while the transparent lid enables easy monitoring of printing status and quality. A nip lever secures the media during loading, and the large opening facilitates easy media setting and user maintenance. Epson Cloud Solution Port supports remote monitoring and management through ECSP.

Advanced features of the SC-S9100 includes:

Exceptional quality with new ink configuration: The SC-S9100 stands out with an 11-colour configuration, including a newly introduced green ink, setting a new benchmark in colour accuracy and vibrancy.

Superior print speed and efficiency: With up to 9% productivity increase compared with the SC-S80600, the SC-S9100 ensures rapid completion of high-volume printing tasks without compromising quality. The printer supports both 1500ml and 800ml ink pouches, offering flexibility and extended operation times.

Epson PrecisionCore Micro TFP printhead technology: The SC-S9100 minimises banding and delivers premium production quality.

User replaceable printhead: For the first time, Epson has introduced a user-replaceable printhead in the EcoSolvent printer lineup, reducing downtime and maintenance costs, and ensuring continuous production capabilities.
