Key benefits – pigmented inks and life time print heads

A major differentiator to rival HP machines is the option of pigmented inks across the whole colour range and not just pigmented black ink on competitor printers. This ensures the printed media produced by the machines has significantly better outdoor durability and fade resistance from strong light sources. 

Unlike most competitor printers the SureColor SC-T5100 feature Epson’s latest generation piezo print heads, designed to last the lifetime of the machine and covered under manufacturer’s warranty.

Each print head has 800 black nozzles and 800 colour nozzles and deploys Unique Verification Technology (NVT) to help prevent misprints.
