Epson introduces 17-inch professional photographic printer
October 12, 2023
The new SureColor P5370 is replacing the SureColor P5000 in the company’s professional photographic printer range.
Epson introduced the new 17-inch SureColor P5370 professional printer designed to meet the demanding needs of professional and production photographic markets. The new printer has an improved printhead, new ink set with an extended colour gamut in dark blue hues, plus an advanced print engine for productivity, including sheet and roll capability.
The SureColor P5370 is being debuted and shown at the Palm Springs Photo Festival.
Vincent Versace, a recognised pioneer in the art and science of digital photography noted, “When I have a large volume of prints to make and time and reliability is of the essence, the SureColor P5370 is my go-to printer for meeting deadlines while maintaining the highest photographic print quality.”
The SureColor P5370 combines an improved advanced MicroPiezo AMC printhead with Epson Precision Dot Screening Technology.
Featuring a new 10-color UltraChrome PRO10 ink set in high-capacity 200ml cartridges, including Violet Ink, the printer delivers an extended range of blue hues and a wider colour gamut. With dedicated channels for Photo and Matte Black inks, there is no ink switching, helping to save time and reduce ink waste. The printer’s built-in Carbon Black Mode increases Dmax, allowing for rich blacks and exceptional contrast on glossy paper.
Offering flexibility and increased productivity, the printer includes a built-in roll feeder, auto cutter and a high-capacity cassette that accommodates up to 100 cut sheets from 8.5″ x 11″ to 17″ x 22″. The SureColor P5370 also includes Epson Media Installer, a software application designed to help control parameters for successful printing with a variety of media, including thick fine art papers.
“Listening to market needs and incorporating customer feedback, we integrated the latest printhead and ink technologies that are optimised for photography into this new printer so professional photographers can maximize productivity, reliability and consistently produce the finest exhibition-quality prints,” said Marc Aguilera, Product Manager, Epson America, Inc. “Designed to meet demanding needs, the SureColor P5370 is an evolution to the beloved SureColor P5000, adding improved reliability, deeper black density and wider colour gamut in blue hues.”
Additional SureColor P5370 features include:
- Intuitive operation – a new large 4.3-inch colour LCD touchscreen and interface allows for easy setup, control and maintenance
- Expanded connectivity – Ethernet, USB and, now included, Wi-Fi connectivity
- Advanced software support for enhanced productivity – includes Epson Cloud Solution PORT for fleet management and Epson Print Layout software for simple print production
The SureColor P5370 will be available in Q1 2024 through Epson Authorised Professional Imaging Resellers.
