Epson SureColor SC-P6500D 24” Dual Roll Photo Printer | C11CJ49301A1
Production photo, poster and fine art printing
The Epson SureColor SC-P6500D C11CJ49301A1 is a 24-inch dual roll professional photo printer designed for high-quality photo printing, poster production, and fine art reproduction. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for retail print environments, photo labs, studios, and in-house print shops, delivering outstanding colour accuracy and reliable productivity in demanding workflows.
With support for a wide range of photo papers, fine art media, and poster stocks, the SC-P6500D enables businesses to produce gallery-quality prints, marketing posters, and high-resolution photography quickly and consistently.
UltraChrome Pro6 pigment ink technology
The SC-P6500D uses Epson’s 6-colour UltraChrome Pro6 pigment ink system, including a dedicated grey ink for smoother tonal transitions and reduced grain. This advanced ink technology produces accurate skin tones, rich blacks, and smooth gradations, delivering results comparable to many traditional 8-colour printers.
The pigment inks also provide excellent archival stability, making the printer ideal for giclée prints, professional photography, and exhibition work.
Dual roll productivity for busy print environments
The dual roll system significantly improves productivity by allowing two media types or sizes to be loaded simultaneously. The printer automatically switches between rolls, reducing manual intervention and speeding up production.
This capability is particularly valuable for photo labs and print shops producing a mix of posters, photo enlargements, and fine art prints, helping operators maintain workflow efficiency during busy production periods.
Adobe PostScript 3 for fast file processing
The SC-P6500D includes Adobe PostScript 3, allowing the printer to process complex image files quickly and efficiently. Large photographic files, layered artwork, and high-resolution posters can be rendered faster, reducing RIP processing time and improving output speeds.
For print shops, photo printing centres, and graphic studios, this ensures quicker job turnaround and smoother production workflows, especially when handling multiple large-format print jobs.
Compact, user-friendly design
Despite its professional capabilities, the SC-P6500D features a compact, flat-top design that fits easily into smaller studios or retail environments. Front-loading cut-sheet and posterboard handling simplifies media loading, while built-in Wi-Fi connectivity allows flexible installation without complex network cabling.
This makes the printer easy to operate even in customer-facing environments such as photo shops and retail print counters.
Fast and reliable performance
Powered by Epson’s PrecisionCore MicroTFP printhead, the SC-P6500D delivers speeds of up to 18m² per hour in photo quality, enabling fast production of posters, photography, and display graphics.
Combined with the dual roll system and PostScript processing, this printer offers high productivity without sacrificing image quality.
