Epson ColorWorks C6500A Colour Label Printer
The 8-inch Epson ColorWorks C6500A is the replacement for the older Epson GP-C831 colour label printer, which has been discontinued. It is also one of several models in the C-6000 series. The Epson CW-C6500A comes with an auto cutter while its nearly identical sibling comes with a peeler.
With a print speed of 5 inches per second, 1200dpi, and advanced features, the Epson ColorWorks C6500A delivers performance and quality. It was built to compete with industrial thermal transfer printers, with comparable features and pricing, but with the added advantage of full colour label printing.
For example, the Epson ColorWorks C6500A offers the following:
- Broad compatibility — ZPL II, ESC/Label, SAP, Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and more.
- Built-in auto cutter — This model comes with an auto cutter.
- Remote printer management — The CW-C6500A can be used as a standalone or networked printer and managed remotely.
- Applicator I/O control port — Attach and control a label applicator.
- Removable media spindles — Swap out label rolls quickly and easily. Additional media spindles sold separately.
