With over 20% faster print speeds1 and improved print quality compared to the previous generation, the new SureColor S8170 is one of the most productive sign printers ever developed.

"In a sign shop, speed isn't just about quick printing, it's the backbone of efficiency.

Built to maximize production capabilities, the SureColor S8170 delivers the highest productivity of the SureColor S-Series product lineup. It touts a 6-color UltraChrome® GS3 ink set, including Light Cyan and Light Magenta, to help minimize banding, even at the fastest production speeds. The versatile, fast-drying ink set allows for same day lamination,2 and the ability to mix and match ink packs, available in either 800mL or 1,500mL,3 with hot swap technology that automatically switches from an empty ink pack to a new pack mid-print, minimizing interruptions and maximizing performance.
Featuring the latest generation, user-replaceable, PrecisionCore® Micro TFP® printhead with Nozzle Verification Technology and an integrated temperature sensor control, it reliably produces high-quality prints and consistent color – job to job, panel to panel. The compact, user-friendly design includes a precise media feeding and tension mechanism that offers stable media handling and accuracy for a variety of substrates including vinyl, banner, canvas, paper and more. Its large 4.3-inch touch screen supports easy operation and gives print providers the ability to view and manage print settings directly on the screen.
Offering smart management features to improve performance, it comes with a one-year subscription to ONYX Go Plus and includes Epson Edge® Print Pro RIP software and Epson Cloud Solution PORT®4 for production monitoring and fleet management.
