Finest Print Quality and Exceptional Productivity
Pattern Matching Technology
The ML-16000JQ is equipped with a camera unit that recognizes fabric patterns in real time, detects design/pattern position, changes size, and generates print data. The pattern matching technology allows to print on specific locations on textured fabrics such as jacquard, embroidery, lace, as well as the ability to create double-sided prints.
PrecisionCore Micro TFP printheads
Equipped with 16 PrecisionCore Micro TFP printheads, the latest high-density, high-precision printheads developed and manufactured in-house, it realizes high productivity and image quality.
Epson Precision Dot Technology
Epson precision dot technology, refined over many years of inkjet printer development, underlies superior image quality. In addition, our exclusive Microweave, halftoning, and LUT technologies work together to reduce banding, graininess, and image quality degradation caused by dot placement errors.
Symmetrical Colour Alignment
Symmetrical colour alignment maintains consistent colour overlap order during high-speed bi-directional low-pass printing for uniform image quality.
Dynamic Alignment Stabiliser (DAS) Technology for uniform dot density
Dynamic Alignment Stabiliser (DAS) technology ensures stable print quality by controlling waveforms on printhead chip to achieve higher dot placement accuracy and more uniform dot density on each pass.
Accurate Belt Position Control (ABPC) Technology for high-precision fabric feeding
The ML-16000JQ achieves high image quality with new Accurate Belt Position Control (ABPC) technology that automatically detects belt feeding distance to ensure highly accurate fabric feeding.
High Reliability
Dual sensor system to prevent costly head strikes
Dual head-strike sensors detect any folds or wrinkles that may cause the fabric to come into direct contact with the printheads. If folds or wrinkles are detected, the sensors immediately stop the carriage to avert a potential head strike.
High-accuracy head alignment technology for highly accurate dot placement
High-precision positioning pins and holes on the printhead and carriage enable accurate dot placement for high print quality.
High-capacity ink supply for uninterrupted production
Large capacity vacuum-packed degassed ink cartridges can be loaded for each colour, and you don't need to worry about running out of ink halfway through a job because empty cartridges can be replaced while printing is in progress.
Software for Digital Textile Printing
Epson Edge Print PRO X is designed to maximise the performance of PrecisionCore MicroTFP printheads and GENESTA inks. It is easy to use with an intuitive interface. Epson Edge Print PRO X series software supports Adobe PDF Print Engine (APPE) - the industry’s leading technology and new 16-bit rendering. The software includes step and repeat, hot folders, print cost analysis tool and colour adjustment for matching spot colours.
ColorBlend is pre-processing software for Epson Edge Print PRO X. ColorBlend lets you create colour variations (colourways) from channel separated images (PSD, PSB,etc.), control ink penetration to achieve visual equivalence on both sides of fabric, generate ICC profiles, and perform other pre-processing tasks.
Environmentally friendly inks to meet every need
Epson’s GENESTA inks are available in Acid, Reactive, Disperse, and Pigment formulations. GENESTA inks are ECO PASSPORT certified to meet globally recognized standards for environmentally friendly textile printing. Our Acid ink is also bluesign® approved, and our Reactive, Acid and Pigment inks are GOTS approved by ECOCERT.* The vacuum packed degassed ink comes in hot-swappable 10-litre high-capacity ink cartridges that allow uninterrupted production.
*Genesta RE-N Reactive inks: except one of Grey (Grey RE-N), Genesta AC Acid inks: except Black AC-N / Grey AC-N
