ColorWorks CW-C6500A Color Inkjet Label Printer with Auto-Cutter
For those looking for exceptional image quality on their labels, we often suggest the ColorWorks CW-C6500A Color Inkjet Label Printer with Auto-Cutter. This printer was designed to create premium label prints using a full color spectrum and at an incredibly fast pace.
This label printer is unique because it is Epson’s attempt at a traditional thermal printer alternative. Epson hopes to provide a thermal printer finish, but pair that with newer features such as broad compatibility with label applications, working with all operating systems, and using a built-in cutter.
We love what Epson has done with this printer and what we have listed so far is just some of the features you can expect to get with this printer.
ColorWorks CW-C6500A Color Inkjet Label Printer with Auto-Cutter
Have you ever seen one of those commercials that are all black and white and then a character or entity comes in and bestows color upon everything? Well, that is sort of what this printer intends to do with labels. It can take almost any label design and infuse it with the perfect shade of any chosen color. This in effect turns the label from an afterthought into a premium packaging detail.
While other color printers exist, few can print such high-quality labels while maintaining a fast speed. When printing on the speed setting, this printer will print at 600 x 600 dpi. This is much better than the C6000 series which prints at 300 x 300 dpi under the same setting.
Beyond its print quality, the ColorWorks CW-C6500A Color Inkjet Label Printer is a favorite for large businesses. That is because the hardware on this printer makes it extremely easy to connect with any existing products. Anything from computers to printer equipment and smart gear can all be connected to the printer.
Other features include:
- Long-lasting durability and sturdy build.
- Low-cost alternative to traditional thermal transfer printers.
- Remote printer management.
- Multiple warranty options through label basic.
- Easy integration with ZPl, SAP, and other prominent programs.
- PrecisionCore Printhead technology with leveraged colors.
The printer comes in a matte and gloss version, and each version can only print either matte or gloss. So please consider the type of finish and design that you are going for with your label.
Who is the ColorWorks CW-C6500A Color Inkjet Label Printer with Auto-Cutter Made For?
This premium printer was designed for high-volume, enterprise clients. While it can be used for small jobs, this printer looks to be churning out labels. It can keep up with any fast-paced environment and if it is working at its full capacity, can easily keep 2 or 3 people busy with labeling.
