High-Quality Technical and Graphics Printing
The SC-T5700D PS uses Epson's UltraChrome XD3 all-pigment ink technology to produce highly accurate CAD drawings, GIS maps, technical plans, and vibrant full-colour posters. The dedicated Red ink expands the colour gamut, delivering improved reproduction of corporate branding, retail graphics, promotional signage, and presentation materials.
Integrated Adobe PostScript 3 support ensures accurate rendering of complex PDF files, vector graphics, fonts, transparencies, and layered artwork. This makes the printer particularly suitable for architecture practices, engineering firms, design studios, reprographics departments, and corporate graphics teams.
The PrecisionCore MicroTFP printhead delivers crisp text, fine lines, and smooth colour gradations. Combined with pigment-based inks, prints benefit from excellent durability, water resistance, and smudge resistance.
Dual Roll Productivity
The integrated dual-roll system allows users to load two media rolls simultaneously, enabling instant switching between different media types, widths, or applications without manual intervention.
For example, one roll can hold CAD bond paper for technical drawings while the second contains poster media for graphics production. The printer automatically selects the correct media based on job requirements, reducing downtime and improving workflow efficiency.
For longer unattended print runs, the printer can automatically switch to the second roll when the first roll is depleted, helping maintain continuous production.
Efficient Operation for Busy Environments
Built for demanding workplaces, the SC-T5700D PS supports high-volume production while maintaining consistent output quality. Support for 350ml and 700ml ink cartridges helps minimise interruptions during extended print runs and reduces cartridge replacement frequency.
An optional 960GB encrypted SSD provides secure job storage, reprinting of frequently used files, and enhanced workflow management for busy production environments.
