Aziza Mahomed, business development manager at Kemtek, highlights the partnership with Epson as a pivotal step in empowering PSPs to unlock exceptional, precision printing results. Through Epson’s diverse range of large-format printers (LFPs), including the V7000 flatbed UV model, R-Series solvent printers, P-Series for photographic and proofing purposes and T-Series for technical and CAD applications, Kemtek ensures a comprehensive solution for various industries. ‘This breadth of LFP options allows Kemtek to meet the specific needs of printshops, signage firms, advertising agencies and event planners, architects, engineers and educational institutes alike,’ Aziza states.
‘The SureColor SC-V7000 is Epson’s inaugural foray into UV flatbed LFPs, designed to deliver exceptional image quality and flexibility across a broad spectrum of media. Its unique printhead layout facilitates high-speed printing with white ink and varnish simultaneously, covering a maximum area of 2.5 x 1.25m,’ she explains. ‘In addition, its intuitive interface and user-friendly features make it a seamless fit for print shops, advertising agencies, graphic design studios, outdoor signage firms and branding agencies. It excels at producing vibrant, attention-grabbing retail and graphic materials, durable outdoor signage and customised promotional material.’
According to Aziza, packaging manufacturers will appreciate the SC-V7000’s UV printing capabilities on both rigid and flexible materials. Architectural firms will welcome its precise, sharp printing of technical details, while fine art studios, art galleries and artists will be delighted by its colour accuracy, artistic reproduction and texture replication.
She describes the SureColor SC-S80610L signage and display printer as a revolutionary tool for creating everything from simple signage to high-end displays and décor on a wide range of substrates. ‘Every component of the SC-S80610L (pictured above) is meticulously designed and manufactured by Epson to ensure seamless operation and consistently professional-quality results.’
For businesses in need of high-speed, premium quality printing, copying and advanced scanning capabilities, Aziza recommends the Epson SC-T5700DM. It utilises a fully integrated 915mm dual light CIS scanner to support and enhance their productivity levels.
For those seeking a competitively-priced, entry-level technical printer, with an integrated scanner and copier, the SureColor SC-T5400M excels in detail, precision and flexibility. Tailored for professionals in construction, reprographics, education and retail, this printer meets diverse needs effectively.
When it comes to producing high-quality photos and posters, the SureColor SC-P8500D commercial printer stands out. With its compact, contemporary design and Wi-Fi connectivity, this 1.1m printer boasts an Epson PrecisionCore MicroTFP printhead and six-colour UltraChrome Pro6 pigment inks, including a new grey option.
In essence, Aziza underscores that Epson’s SureColor LFPs merge exceptional colour, ink and pigment technologies with robust printheads, ensuring high speeds and consistently repeatable water- and smudge-resistant images. ‘These integrated features drive exceptional productivity and flexibility across a broad substrate range, empowering PSPs to capitalise on diverse application opportunities and enhance profit margins.’
