Precision colour proofing
When purchased with a violet HDX inkset for pre-press proofing the SC-P5000 can reproduce packaging, marketing materials and corporate colours with 99% Pantone Solid Coated Colour accuracy1.
Perfect art reproduction
When specified with an HDX inkset with LLK, photographers and fine artists can use the SC-P5000 to reproduce the detail and colours of their artwork perfectly, as well as exact reproduction of 98% of Pantone Solid Coated Colours.
Reliability you can trust
The SC-P5000 offers new features to ensure reliable day-to-day operation and minimise maintenance. These include new covers and seals to limit dust intrusion, an improved automatic nozzle check and a guided cleaning procedure.
Outstanding print quality
The SC-P5000 uses Epson’s latest ink technology to make high-resolution, long-lasting prints. 3.5pl droplet size and 2880x1440dpi resolution ensure crisp, detailed results, while Ultrachrome HDX inks offer much improved lightfastness2.
Simple setup and operation
Setup and media handling is quick and easy thanks to an internal colour calibration sensor, simple media switching and a clear media handling guide on the display. The SC-P5000 fits seamlessly into any proofing workflow and can be supplied with a SpectroProofer, which can handle automated colour proof checking. The printer is supported by all major RIP and software vendors.
New features for dramatically improved reliability, including auto nozzle check (NVT), timer cleaning (TCL) and dust intrusion countermeasures:
With automatic fast-speed nozzle checking to prevent clogging, dust intrusion deterrent, anti-static prevention and Timer Cleaning function, the SC-P5000 delivers all the performance you could ever want from a photo and fine art printer. It boasts the largest cartridge to content at 200ml, giving you economic and efficient, maintenance-free printing.
Optional violet (for proofing) or LLK (for fine art and photography) set-up
For the professional photographer who needs a high-quality precision printer, the SC-P5000 with Light Light Black ink delivers the sharpest detail with brilliant, accurate colours. For pre-press proofing applications, using Violet ink it ensures a perfect print match, providing superior output for colour-critical print jobs.
Epson Ultrachrome HDX inks, including new formulation yellow with larger particles for higher lightfastness
Epson’s Ultrachrome HDX ink delivers black ink at an increased optical density due to the high number of pigments in the ink.
It’s easy to achieve the quality results that your best work deserves with the SC-P5000, thanks to the new yellow ink formulation incorporating larger particles, which gives higher lightfastness and ensures output consistency on every print. The ink also adjusts the colour imbalance caused by ageing and environmental influences. Simply put, quality will take on a whole new meaning once you have seen the results.
