What ink type is best for my Epson ColorWorks CW-C6000?
The Epson C6000 comes in two different ink types: Matte and Gloss. The chart below should help you determine what works best for your printing needs.
Epson ColorWorks C6000A Label Printer/Auto Cutter Has the Ability
ZPL-ABILITY and Enterprise-ABILITY
The Epson ColorWorks C6000A Label Printer Auto Cutter is one of the first color inkjet label printers to offer ZPL II (Zebra Programming Language) compatibility for enterprise-level label printing. They can be used as a direct “plug and play” replacement for your existing thermal label printers running ZPL. If you are ordering pre-printed labels and running them through thermal label printers to print variable data, the new Epson C6000 series color inkjet label printer can easily replace your existing thermal label printers and print both the color images and the variable data all in one pass – eliminating the need for you to carry an inventory of preprinted labels. Running SAP? The Epson C6000 series offers out-of-the-box integration with SAP.
- First Printer Specifically Designed as a Color Upgrade to Black-Only Thermal Transfer Printers — Designed with similar media handling capabilities, speed, features, and connectivity options, all at a comparable price point
- Seamless Integration — Compatible with ZPL II, major middleware, SAP, Windows®, Mac®, and Linux
- Remote Printer Management — For managing large fleets over the network
- Applicator I/O Control Port for Automated Workflow — Supports I/O commands; can be integrated into nearly any workflow
Depend-ABILITY and Mission Critical-ABILITY
Epson C6000 color inkjet label printers are built tough and are able to withstand the rigors of mission-critical label printing – on the production floor, on the shipping dock, and in the warehouse. Just like your existing thermal label printers, you can depend on the C6000 series color inkjet label printers to reliably print labels for your mission-critical labeling needs with minimal downtime. And they are backed up by Epson’s robust ExpressCare™ service program, with options for on-site and depot service, and extended warranty programs.
Color Label-ABILITY
The Epson ColorWorks C6000 produces crisp, high-resolution color output using PrecisionCore CMYK pigment ink printing technology. The printed color image is very durable and able to withstand handling, abrasion, and moisture, and resist fading. There are 5 print quality settings with resolutions up to 1200 x 1200. The Epson C6000 series label printer prints color labels from 1” to 4.25” wide and is ideal for printing color product labels, identification labels, and location labels.
On-Demand-ABILITY
The Epson C6000 series color inkjet label printers offer peel-and-present (Epson C6000P) or automated cutter (Epson C6000A) options. The peel and present (Epson C6000P) option makes labeling easier by enabling operators to send a large batch print job, and the printer prints one label at a time with the liner already removed. The “label taken” sensor senses when the operator takes the label before it prints the next one. The remote I/O capabilities enable these printers to easily integrate with automated label applicators for a true “print-one-apply-one” automated workflow.
User-Friendly-ABILITY
The Epson C6000 features a full-color touchscreen panel that displays printer status, label media settings, and ink levels. Both label rolls and fanfold labels are supported, and the cover opens in both directions for easy access. The printers offer Remote Printer Management, enabling organizations to manage fleets of printers. Checking consumable status, updating firmware, and confirming errors can all be managed from a central location using the Epson C6000 series of printers. Using the “spot color replacement” feature, users can easily change the color without changing the original artwork. ICC color profiles can be uploaded directly to the printer, and Windows, Linux, and Mac operating systems are fully supported.
The Epson C6000A has an available Rewinder and an Unwinder specifically built for the Epson line. The new ColorWorks models deliver dependable, commercial inkjet printing with fast-drying, durable color inks, and enhanced productivity while offering cost and inventory reduction compared to using pre-printed labels.
