Epson Introduces 10-Color UV Flatbed Printer

Epson expanded its SureColor V-Series UV flatbed printer line to meet the shift towards compact signage equipment. 

The new SureColor V4000 is designed to bring the power of UV printing to direct-to-object production and a wide range of substrates, helping businesses maximize output in a compact footprint. 

With a large print area, expanded color gamut, and Braille printing capability, it expands the possibilities of high-quality output for signage, photo, fine art, and promotional items.

“Many sign shops and print providers still rely on the time-consuming process of printing to adhesive vinyl, laminating and mounting to rigid substrates,” said David Bistrovic, product manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America. “The SureColor V4000 streamlines production with direct-to-substrate UV printing, delivering vibrant output with its 10-color UltraChrome UV inks and precise details – including Braille – powered by PrecisionCore Micro TFP printheads. With its large print area and ability to support expanded applications, it empowers print shops to produce more diverse, high-value products.”

Ideal for sign shops, custom gift merchandising companies and print service providers, additional features include:

• Prints on tall items – Automatically detects and adjusts to accommodate media up to 7.8″ thick for virtually endless printing possibilities
