At Labelepxo 2015, Epson will demonstrate the largest range of digital label printers and presses it has shown to date, and unveil several new products (on booth 9A50 from 29th September – 2nd October at Brussels Expo).
Epson offers the broadest selection of label printing solutions to meet the most diverse range of label production needs, compared with any other manufacturer today. Its products include handheld label makers for office, industrial, construction and retail, desktop colour label printers for in-house ‘on-demand’ applications, wide-format printers for specialist labels and UV and aqueous inkjet presses for higher-volume commercial applications. Each printer and press is fully developed by Epson and every component – hardware, printhead, ink and software – is manufactured by Epson and optimised to deliver the best possible performance.
Labelexpo highlights will include:
- The SurePress L-6034VW incorporating Epson’s PrecisionCore linehead and LED-cured UV ink with in-line digital varnish and high-opacity white ink. This single-pass press is ideal for high-quality short-to mid-run jobs, producing labels with outstanding scratch and weather resistance. This press is now commercialised and the first installations are underway.
- The seven-colour SurePress L-4033AW: the world’s only aqueous inkjet label press and ideal for high-quality, high-value, short-run label jobs. This popular press delivers exceptional print quality on a wide variety of standard label substrates, including clear film and metallic substrates, and without the need for pre-treatments or coatings.

For the first time the C3500 will be shown in an affordable short-run, roll-to-roll configuration. Plus, the latest ColorWorks C7500 with innovative permanent PrecisionCore linehead will be printing quality labels on a wide variety of materials up to four inches wide at a fast 300mm/sec – with and without rewinder capability.
