Company Background Epson is one of the world’s leaders in printing and digital imaging technologies for a wide range of industries and applications. For over 40 years, Epson’s advanced technology has been at work in millions of retail, banking and healthcare organizations around the world. Epson’s products are known for their advanced technology, reliability and value. Epson has leveraged its expertise in printing and imaging to deliver highquality solutions for the healthcare industry from pharmacy label and wristband color printers to medical imaging devices and storage. Product Overview Now retail and compounding pharmacies have a fast, reliable way to produce color-enhanced labels with Epson's SecurColor inkjet printer. Unlike current cumbersome label printing solutions that use pre-printed labels or blank label sheets, SecurColor's on-demand color printer allows you to print a wide range of labels on the same media, greatly reducing the cost and hassle of printing labels. With SecurColor, you can generate labels systematically from popular software applications, increasing pharmacy labeling efficiency and accuracy with updated warnings and critical alerts printed directly on the pharmacy label, doing away with warning stickers. Because you can print one color label at a time or as many labels as needed, pharmacies gain all the benefits of color with the flexibility to support changing medication labeling requirements and volume. SecurColor prints vibrant, smudgeproof text and graphics with qualified label media from 1.2" to 4.4" wide. In addition, with SecurColor you can print variable length labels without any media changes. The SecurColor printer complies with USP 797 standards for clean room environments.
