Automatic color management
(SpectroProofer mounter)
With the optional SpectroProofer Mounter 17"
installed, you can print, dry, and do color
measurement work in sequence on roll paper.
Another optional colorimeter ILS30EP can be used for
a variety of color measurement conditions including
the new M1 standard. (Supports M0/M1/M2)
Also, with the addition of a function to prevent
misaligned measurement positions, this model
provides more accurate readings than conventional
models.
To use this you need commercially available RIP
software.

Superior Ease of Use

Automatically switch roll paper and
cut sheets for printing
You can load roll paper in the printer and load cut
sheets in the paper cassette at the same time. The
required paper is automatically fed if you specify the
paper source when printing.

Auto nozzle check prevents printing
mistakes
Missing dots are detected on all nozzles extremely
quickly and head cleaning is performed automatically
if any missing dots are detected. This prevents
printing mistakes and reduces unnecessary costs and
wasted time.

Checking current operating status
even from a distance, thanks to a
large alert lamp
When an error occurs, or when ink or paper is
running low, you can easily check the status of the
printer even from afar, thanks to a highly visible, large
alert lamp.
Introduction
This helps prevent any wasted time when printing has
stopped due to running out of ink or paper.
Simplified setting operations when
changing roll paper
When changing between many different types of roll
paper for your printing, you can automatically make
settings by using the barcode printing function, as the
printer reads the recorded information such as the
paper type, the amount of remaining roll paper, and
low paper warning values.

Improved color adjustment function
(Epson Color Calibration Utility)
The Epson Color Calibration Utility software
provided on the software disc supplied allows you to
easily perform color calibration using the printer's
built-in sensors.
Adjust all prints with one calibration
By saving the calibration data to the printer, you do
not need to perform calibration for every paper type
or mode. Also, you do not need to make individual
calibrations when sharing the printer with multiple
users.
Perform color management for multiple printers
You can perform color management for multiple
printers that use the same ink set.
See the Epson Color Calibration Utility manual for
details.
Improved energy efficiency with
sleep mode and Power Off Timer
When no print jobs are being handled, or when no
operation has been performed for some time, the
printer enters sleep mode to reduce power
consumption. Furthermore, if the Power Off Timer
function is enabled, the printer can automatically
switch off to avoid wasting electricity. This function
works if no print jobs are received and no operations
are carried out on the control panel while the printer
is not in an error status for a specified duration of time.
