“After a successful trip to Tokyo Sign and having a good look at all of the Japanese solvent printers on their home turf, coming back and buying the Epson S80600 was an easy decision as it stood head and shoulders over the competition,” says Darren Watkins, director of Melbourne large format & display printer Resolution Imaging.

“We will bend over backwards to get the job done,” says Resolution Imaging director Darren Watkins. “Our team integrates extensive graphic arts experience, high adaptability and a genuine sense of fun. The new signage printer had to match all of those qualities and deliver more. So, after a successful trip to Tokyo Sign and having a good look at all of the Japanese solvent printers on their home turf, coming back and buying the Epson S80600 was an easy decision as it stood head and shoulders over the competition.”
The SureColor Solvent 80600 enables Resolution to produce durable high-quality signage quickly and at minimum cost, says Epson. “It suits their variable workflow environment with low to medium production volumes. To add flexibility it can be used with a wide range of media including paper, canvas, film and vinyl.”
Resolution acquired the S80600 complete with software that ensures it can take care of applications including large format photo imaging, indoor POS and signage, back-lit displays, window decorations, wallpapers, surface finishes and décor.
“The Epson S80600 ticked all of the boxes, quality print with a wide colour gamut, an output speed that suited our needs and an ease of use that we still talk about every day,” says Watkins.
The SC-S80600 also incorporates Epson's latest PrecisionCore printhead and UltraChrome Eco-Solvent ink technology
“I have to stress that the gamut in particular is a real plus with Pantone colours being reproduced with ease,” Watkins says. “Our S80600 is also coupled with an Onyx RIP to aid us in maintaining high standards of quality reproduction.
“The majority of work going through the Epson 80600 is on self-adhesive vinyl and the fast drying inks have also proved invaluable when trying to meet the tight deadlines everyone in the industry faces on a daily basis. Put simply this is an excellent, high quality, high speed, highly efficient large format signage printer with no equal.”
