Quality results at high speed
The SureLab range has been designed to facilitate high-speed photo production with superior image quality and control. Printers feature a solid construction, with a convenient roll or sheet-based media supply and a fast print engine. When used as intended, they provide durable operation, without the cost or inconvenience of periodic maintenance from a specialist. All models incorporate Epson's patented Thin Film Print™ (TFP) heads with self-monitoring micro-fine nozzles that enable high-resolution output with consistent and predictable performance. Integrated Variable-Size Droplet Technology (VSDT) provides enhanced clarity and halftone performance with fine image control. Prints are more consistent and feature superior resolution, colour, intensity, and gloss levels over alternative technologies such as Thermal Dye Sublimation and Silver Halide.
Maximising Business Potential

They can also be used to print ID and passport photos. They can even be used to produce premium grade portrait prints, as well as specialist banner and panoramic artwork, and are even efficient at photobook and calendar applications through use of Epson’s new SureLab double-sided sheet media.
SureLab printers will accept files from many of the common photo editing, graphic design and imaging applications. With appropriate software it is possible to produce a wide range of material including calendars and awards, invite and name cards, product fliers and restaurant menus, and celebratory and event notices. Epson SureLab Paper has been designed to ensure premium quality results. It can be ordered in a choice of Gloss and Lustre varieties, in a range of widths to suit different applications, across both single-sided and double-sided sheet and roll media. The D560 and D1060 includes additional 3.5" media support for production of ultra-small items including passport photos, business cards, and gift tags.

They generate minimal noise and can be operated in a wide range of business environments. The D560 and D1060 can be connected via high speed USB 2.0, as well as Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Multiple SureLabs can be combined for scalability and optionally augmented with additional Epson Large Format photo printers for an integrated production platform covering everything from passport photos up to large canvas prints.

Printers require minimal training to operate and can be driven with a wide range of common workflow, graphic design, and photo applications. The D560 ships with a powerful Mac/Windows driver that includes an adjustable colour space for precision premium work.
The D560 can also be driven with optional Epson Order Controller software.
