Spandex Asia Pacific has joined Epson Australia as a national dealer to sell and support the Epson Stylus Pro GS6000 solvent printer for the sign and display market.

Epson’s Business Solutions Manager, Craig Heckenberg, welcomed Spandex with its already extensive experience as the world’s leading trade supplier to the sign making and display industries, and as the largest dealer for Epson’s Pro GS6000 in Europe.

“The Spandex Asia Pacific team under Alex McLelland has incredible depth and penetration of the national sign and display market, and we are confident that the Pro GS6000 is a natural fit with their customer base,” said Craig.

“As the largest aftermarket and equipment distributor in Australia we provide a first rate level of service to more than 5,000 customers nationally from our distribution centres in each State,” said Alex McClelland, Managing Director/VP Asia Pacific, Spandex Asia Pacific.

“Spandex has a wealth of experience and technical knowledge to draw upon. The introduction of the GS6000 further enhances our equipment product portfolio and will provide us with the ability to expand our reach into new areas of the digital market. The partnership with Epson is a key part of our digital strategy for the future, and we look forward to working with the Epson team,” said Alex.

The Epson Stylus Pro GS6000 is a reliable, cost effective, operator-friendly and high quality solvent printer that sets new quality and performance standards for the sign and display market, and comes with an included three-year onsite vendor supported premium warranty and maintenance program.

The 64-inch photo-quality Pro GS6000 is equipped with the Epson UltraChrome GS eight colour inkset, a ground breaking solvent-based ink that is nickel-free and has fewer harmful VOC (volatile organic compounds) than other solvent based inks. Prints made with UltraChrome GS ink are virtually odourless, eliminating the need for expensive ventilation and air purification systems to protect the operators.

With a maximum print resolution of 1440 x 1440dpi along with an advanced Epson MicroPiezo Dual Array printhead and Variable-Sized Droplet Technology capable of generating ink droplets as small as 3.7pl, the Pro GS6000 delivers the same high quality photo and display graphics as Epson aqueous printer technologies.

The Pro GS6000 has fast throughput and industry-leading print quality in Vinyl Production Mode with print speeds up to 9.2m2 per hour, and in Banner Production Mode, the speed is up to an impressive 25.2m2 per hour.

Durable graphics created by the Pro GS6000 with UltraChrome GS ink on Avery Dennison Graphics (Avery Graphics) substrates also receive the Avery Graphics Integrated Component System (ICS) three year Performance Guarantee.
