LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. – April 24, 2023 – Epson and ScanSource recently hosted the spring “Label Summit” event, a ColorWorks® Partner training event. Indianapolis, Indiana hosted the two-day event. From April 18-20 the event was focused on equipping ProFocus dealers with information about applications and solutions that would enable them to identify and better sell ColorWorks to their customers. The event included a tour of Epson’s Indianapolis Distribution Center, allowing all attendees to see first-hand how the transition from traditional thermal printers to Epson ColorWorks has yielded significant improvements in operating costs and operational efficiency.
“The event was a great setting to uncover new opportunities for growth and success with our partners, and showcase the innovative color labeling solutions, tools and programs that can benefit businesses of all sizes,” said Ansley Hoke, senior vice president of marketing, ScanSource, Inc.
The event included training sessions from Epson ColorWorks partners UPM Raflatac, FoxIV, BarTender®, and DTG. The event was exclusively designed for value-added retailers and provided a deeper dive into Epson ColorWorks color label printers, and how color can enhance productivity and results.
“It was exciting to welcome our reseller partners to Indianapolis for concentrated, in-depth, hands-on training with our leading label printers, complementary solutions, software, and media,” said Victor Gomez, director, Industrial Labels, Epson America, Inc. “This unique event also provided an inside look at Epson’s Distribution Center where ColorWorks printers are used for all warehouse labeling.”
The event specifically offered training for Epson’s ColorWorks on-demand color label printers that are designed for any business looking to eliminate two-step printing, bring color label printing in-house, add color to existing labels, or simply produce more consistent and better-quality black-and-white labels. Products demonstrated at the event included Epson’s newest ColorWorks C4000 compact printer and the ColorWorks CW-C6000-series industrial label printers with auto cutter and peel-and-present models.
