Epson announces the launch of the SC-S8100 with six colours (CMYK Lc, Lm) the newest member of its next generation lineup of 64 inch large format eco solvent signage printers. Joining the recently introduced SC-S7100 and SC-S9100, the SC-S8100 is the successor to the highly successful S60600 series, designed to meet the evolving demands of signage professionals by delivering high quality prints with higher productivity and improved reliability compared to its predecessor.



The SC-S8100 features an expanded six colour ink configuration utilising the advanced Ultra Chrome GS3 ink set, which includes CMYK, Light Cyan (Lc) and Light Magenta (Lm). The SC-S8100 achieves superior print quality with reduced banding levels. With a new, larger Precision core MicroTFP printhead, productivity can be increased by up to 30% depending on material type, when compared with the SC-S60600, ensuring rapid completion of high volume printing tasks without compromising quality.

With a compact height of 1,021mm, a reduction of 317 mm over its predecessor, the SC-S8100’s transparent cover and low profile design allow users to easily monitor fleet status from any angle.

Key Features of the SC-S8100:

Enhanced Productivity: The new PrecisionCore Micro TFP printhead increases the total number of nozzles from 7,200 to 9,600, and is faster in all main print modes, resulting in improved throughput and delivers reduced banding with the use of multi-layer halftone technology.

User-Friendly Design: The new design concept includes a 4.3-inch touch panel for easy operation, with the ability to manage ink levels and printer status effortlessly. The hot swap function allows for ink replacement during printing, minimising downtime and enhancing productivity.

Reliable Operation: The SC-S8100 is equipped with Nozzle Verification Technology (NVT), which automatically detects nozzle conditions and adjusts print quality if any clogs are detected. Additionally, a media cleaner prevents dust and lint from affecting print quality.

Epson Cloud Solution PORT: The SC-S8100 is compatible with the Epson Cloud Solution PORT, providing users with real time insights into printer performance, equipment utilisation, and service notifications, optimising workflow efficiency.
The SC-S8100 supports a choice of ink capacities, allowing customers to select either 800ml or 1500ml ink packs based on their usage needs for individual colours.

"The SC-S8100 completes our range of three new 64 inch large format eco solvent signage printers alongside the recently launched SC-S7100 and SC-S9100," said Chris Davies, Commercial & Industrial division, Epson Europe. "This six colour high speed signage printer demonstrates our commitment to innovation and reliability, delivering higher productivity and superior print quality for signage professionals.
