Epson recently announces its high-production SureColor P10000 wide-format printer. When compared with other Epson solutions on the market, the new SureColor P10000 is capable of producing quality output up to 2.8 times faster.

Larry Kaufman, product manager, Epson Professional Imaging, Epson America, said: “Epson understands the needs of our professional imaging customers. We are focused on providing customers with reliable printing solutions that can produce graphics, fine art and photography at high speeds without compromising quality. The SureColor P10000 is ideal for commercial printers who are not only limited by space, but who strive to more efficiently produce output to meet production deadlines and customer turn-around times.”

SureColor printer comes in an all-new 2.6-inch tall, high-performance print head capable of printing output at exceptionally high resolutions up to 2,400 x 1,200 dpi. Epson UltraChrome PRO is the first pigment ink set to feature four-levels of gray ink technology, including Gray, Light Gray, Dark Gray, and Black pigments to provide seamless transitions with less visible noise and reduced bronzing for superior grayscale output.

It is understood that the Epson SureColor P10000 will be available in Spring of 2016 at a price of US$ 6,995 (RM 28,579). Exact date of availability in Malaysia is not yet known.

From all the specifications that SureColor delivers, yes, it is an astonishing product but we think that with the price quoted is quite steep for Malaysian markets. Lets wait and see whether Epson Malaysia plans to bring it in at a much more affordable price.
