EPSON SUREPRESS L-4733AW

Make superior short-run printing more efficient and profitable with the SurePress L-4733AW digital label press. Equipped with Epson’s innovative MicroPiezo inkjet technology, the printer also features the latest Aqueous Ink technology with a wider colour gamut. Streamline your current workflow with a versatile range of substrates and increased print speeds while keeping operating costs low with the L-4733AW.\

SUPERIOR PRINT QUALITY AND CONSISTENCY

DUAL DRYING SYSTEM
A unique two-stage drying process ensures optimum ink adhesion to label substrates. The first drying stage is a platen heater, which starts fixing the image onto the substrate.
The substrate then moves down to the second drying stage, where hot air blown from a fan evaporates the remaining moisture. After drying, the substrate moves directly to the rewinder.

SUREPRESS AQ INK
A water-based pigment ink-set has been developed specifically for the SurePress L-4733AW with eight colours including green and orange for an extra-wide colour gamut. This ensures accurate colour reproduction for precise colour matching with excellent adhesion on a wide variety of label substrates, without the need for any pre-treatments or coatings. An opaque white ink is also available.

WIDER COLOUR GAMUT
The SurePress uses a water-based pigment ink that features a wide selection of colours that include Green and Orange, in addition to Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, Uncoated Black and White, expanding the colour gamut. The difference is especially noticeable in the bright green to yellow and yellow-orange-red portions of the colour space.
The ink set allows you to have a higher print accuracy and colour saturation to make your labels look even more appealing on a wide variety of label stock substrates, without the need for any pre-processing.

EXPAND YOUR OFFERING AND BOOST THE BOTTOM LINE
Delivering impeccable prints across a wide range of label substrates, your business can boost profitability with an expanded print offering using the reliable SurePress L-4733AW. With accurate colour matching and consistency in colour reproduction, the efficient digital label press is perfect for all businesses.

MICROPIEZO MULTI-PRINTHEADS
SurePress leverages on Epson’s advanced MicroPiezo inkjet technology, synonymous with high quality output, reliability and performance. 
Using piezo electric technology, the amount of ink pulled into and expelled out of the nozzles can be very accurately controlled by varying the electrical charge applied to the piezo electric elements. This enables the print head to eject ink droplets in a range of precisely controlled sizes. MicroPiezo delivers accurate dot shapes and placement for each colour to ensure high-end colour quality and sharp detail needed especially for barcodes and small text.

VARIABLE-SIZED DROPLET TECHNOLOGY
Epson’s Variable-Sized Droplet Technology produces different sized ink droplets as small as 3.0 picolitres. These precisely-sized droplets allow the ink to be uniformly applied, contributing to smooth gradations and accurate colours for optimum image quality. 

INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY AND ACCURACY

USER-FRIENDLY FEATURES
Dual Ink Cartridges allows auto switching which ensures uninterrupted operations, minimising downtime during production. Ink levels are easily monitored via the display and empty cartridges can be easily removed during production without interruptions.

ENHANCED FEATURES
Equipped with an embedded display, operators can easily check ink levels and other production details without hassle. The SurePress L-4733AW comes with a temperature sensor, tape holder, and sitting board to facilitate device operation. With the carriage fan that improves initial drying, the digital label press also has a heater fan that supports the main drying process.

EASE-OF-USE
Save time and money with minimal maintenance requirements. The printing mechanism is easy to access and maintain. Additionally, ink replacement is quick and easy, without a need to stop the press – simply replace the empty ink cartridges and continue printing. Remote diagnostics and analysis is also available to support your business.

QUICK AND FUSS-FREE SPOT COLOUR MATCHING*
The SurePress L-4733AW supports the SureSpectro AS-4000 spectrophotometre, allowing the digital label press to realise highly precise colour matching for all its prints.

*The AS-4000 is an optional component for the main unit.
