Epson is demonstrating its top label printing solutions at Labelexpo Europe in Hall 9, Stand A50. Both of Epson’s SurePress digital label presses – the L-6534VW and L-4733AW – are on display at Epson’s stand, as well as Epson’s ColorWorks on-demand color label printers.

“Epson’s labeling solutions help businesses respond to the demands of the moment – faster turnaround times, shorter runs and lowering labor costs with automation,” states Victor Gomez, director, Epson America. “Labelexpo is an ideal venue to demonstrate Epson’s labeling solutions and allow attendees to see and experience them in person.”

For North American prospective customers not traveling to Europe for Labelexpo, Epson offers in-person demos of its label presses and printers at its Executive Briefing Center at the Epson America headquarters in Los Alamitos, CA, USA. Product briefings include one-on-one meetings showcasing Epson’s technology, design philosophy, environmental initiatives, and the profitable opportunities for businesses.

With a remarkable color gamut, SurePress digital label presses deliver accurate spot colors and gradients required for brand-quality color prime labels and packaging. The SurePress L-6543VW with Orange Ink has a 92% Pantone coverage certification within Delta E of 1.5. A vertically integrated design with Epson-manufactured components, including ink, printheads, LED pinning and curing, SurePress offers stable and predictable production. All SurePress models are Pantone certified.

The ColorWorks label printer lineup helps businesses print cost-effective color labels on-demand for virtually any application, including product, packaging, barcode and shipping. Epson is also highlighting its automated labeling solution using two ColorWorks label printers, a smart camera and an Epson robot. The demo showcases a medical industry application requiring labeling of various size prescription containers. The automated process eliminates human handling, which is necessary for certain medications, and helps to mitigate any potential human labeling errors.
