Flexible display graphics with green credentials


Easily create stunning graphics using eco-friendly inks with the low-maintenance Epson Stylus Pro GS6000.


When Epson entered the high-end wide-format graphics market with the launch of the Stylus Pro GS6000, it introduced an affordable and extremely flexible 64-inch large-format inkjet printer for long-life indoor and outdoor graphics. The Stylus Pro GS6000 packs the best Epson technologies into a roll-to-roll printer that has become a valuable profit centre for professional creative graphics companies.


The Stylus Pro GS6000 ticks all the boxes: high productivity, ability to handle a huge variety of materials, excellent colour gamut and consistency, efficient energy use and low cost of ownership. It features Epson’s durable 8-colour UltraChrome GS eco-solvent type inkset, developed for graphics and signage where high quality images and accurate colour are essential. As this ink has no need for a hazard symbol, it requires no special ventilation, unlike standard solvent ink.


So it’s not surprising that the Stylus Pro GS6000 is a big success, given its green credentials, versatility, quality and value for money.


The printer gives companies the flexibility to produce durable products on a variety of light and heavyweight media from vinyl to soft signage, canvas and textiles up to 1.3mm thick on 30kg rolls – all with minimal disruption and for a very reasonable outlay. It really is a flexible


workhorse, handling POS, banners, exhibition graphics, interior graphics, signage and fine art production applications or automotive and bus wraps with ease.


Featuring Epson’s variable-sized ink droplet and MicroWeave halftoning technologies, the Stylus Pro GS6000 delivers fast-drying, scratch-resistant prints up to 1440x1440dpi at a rate of 25m2 per hour. The combination of an advanced printhead and the UltraChrome GS inkset gives ultra-smooth gradations and colour blending across a wide gamut for true photo quality and spot colour accuracy for branded applications. The output is water and UV resistant for up to 1.5 years without lamination, but can be laminated for applications exposed to intensive mechanical stress or abrasion.


The Stylus Pro GS6000 offers a low total cost of ownership because of Epson’s advanced technology and the huge boost in productivity that the printer brings. Along with the flexible paper changing and high-capacity ‘hot-swappable’ ink cartridges, Epson has worked hard to develop innovations such as the auto cleaning system to minimise maintenance to only 30 minutes per month.


Rapid drying is important for fast production turnaround and the Stylus Pro GS6000 features three individual, digitally controlled heaters, which improve ink adhesion, stabilise dot shape formation and speed up drying. Virtually no external heat is produced, so there is no need for additional air cooling devices. On top of this, the printer is also quieter than average, adding to the general ease-of-use and operational experience.


The Stylus Pro GS6000’s excellent energy efficiency means it uses less power and costs less to run. Along with the odourless eco-solvent-type inks, which are nickel-free, this makes it as one of the greenest printers in its class.


Epson’s unsurpassed reputation for reliability in all its printers, along with an auto-take-up reel for long runs and high speed connectivity, means unattended printing is very much a reality. And, when combined with minimal energy consumption, considerably lower than competitors’ technology, this makes the Stylus Pro GS6000 a sound choice for smart businesses.
