Epson Wins Three PRINTING United Alliance 2021 Pinnacle Product Awards
19 October 2021: Epson announced it earned three coveted PRINTING United Alliance 2021 Pinnacle Product Awards, with the SureColor® F-Series dye-sublimation printer line receiving the award for the seventh consecutive year. This year’s award winners include the SureColor V7000 in the “UV/Latex Flatbed (Under $100K)” category, the SureColor F10070 in the “Roll-to-Roll Dye-Sublimation on Textile ($50K-$100K)” category, and the SureColor F6370 in the “Roll-to-Roll Dye-Sublimation on Metal” category.
“All of our winning SureColor printers are designed specifically to address customer needs – quality, productivity and price,” said Reed Hecht, Group Product Manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America, Inc. “Receiving recognition year-after-year by one of the largest and most important award competitions in the printing industry underscores Epson’s industry leadership and commitment to its customers.”
Open to all PRINTING United Alliance supplier members, the Pinnacle Product Award competition evaluates products that are, or will be, available for sale in 2021. A highly qualified panel of judges from across the printing industry evaluated the annual contest’s 160+ entries in more than 58 categories spanning analog, digital, output and non-output technologies. Output devices are judged based on reports generated by measuring color charts and then comparing to industry specifications.
“This is the only competition I know of that reports on the percentage of Adobe RGB a printer can hit,” said Ray Weiss, Director of Digital Print Programs, PRINTING United Alliance. “Some of the categories were decided by tenths of a point so fierce was the competition this year. The Pinnacle Product Award competition represents the best of the best among commercial hardware. Congratulations to Epson on its three wins.”
