Epson ColorWorks C6500P: Enterprise-Ready Color Label Printing

Seamless Integration & ZPL II Compatibility

The Epson ColorWorks C6500P is one of the first color inkjet label printers to support ZPL II (Zebra Programming Language), making it a direct plug-and-play replacement for existing thermal label printers. It prints both color images and variable data in a single pass, eliminating the need for costly pre-printed label inventory. With out-of-the-box SAP compatibility, it integrates effortlessly into enterprise workflows.

Reliable & Mission-Critical Performance

Built for demanding environments, the C6500P ensures consistent, high-speed performance in warehouses, shipping docks, and production floors. Backed by Epson’s ExpressCare™ service program, it offers onsite, depot, and extended warranty options, ensuring minimal downtime and long-term dependability.

High-Quality, Durable Color Labels

Powered by PrecisionCore CMYK pigment ink technology, the C6500P produces crisp, high-resolution labels (up to 1200 x 1200 dpi) that resist abrasion, moisture, and fading. It supports labels from 1” to 8.34” wide, making it ideal for 6” product labels, 8” GHS-compliant chemical drum labels, and 2-up color labels.

On-Demand Labeling & Automated Workflow

The C6500P features a peel-and-present function, allowing for automated, one-by-one label dispensing. Its “label taken” sensor ensures the next label prints only when the previous one is removed. Remote I/O capabilities enable seamless integration with automated label applicators for a fully automated print-and-apply system.

User-Friendly Operation & Remote Management

Equipped with a full-color touchscreen, the C6500P provides real-time printer status, media settings, and ink levels. It supports label rolls and fanfold labels, with an easily accessible dual-opening cover. Remote Printer Management allows businesses to monitor fleets, check consumables, update firmware, and troubleshoot issues from a central location. With spot color replacement and ICC profile uploads, users can adjust colors without modifying original artwork. Fully compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux, the C6500P delivers professional-grade color printing with maximum efficiency.
