Details
Epson’s Return for Repair (Extended Depot) Warranty is a service program designed to provide you with continued repair coverage for one year beyond the standard one-year warranty period (for example, selecting “2-Year Return for Repair Warranty – EPPCWC4000R1” will extend the warranty period by one additional year for a total of 2 years of warranty coverage). Return for Repair service covers failures due to defects in materials and workmanship during the term of the agreement. No renewal of extended service is available after expiration of your fifth-year plan or if your current plan expires.
Details
Epson’s Spare-In-The-Air printer exchange program is an extremely affordable service solution for companies that cannot afford to have their systems out of service for longer than 24 hours. This quick, overnight replacement warranty program bridges the gap between the turn-around time of depot repair and the higher cost of on-site service. Make one phone call to Epson and a replacement* unit is express shipped overnight to arrive the next day. Then just return the damaged unit to Epson. It’s that easy. And shipping both ways is paid for by Epson. No renewal of extended service is available after expiration of your fifth-year plan or if your current plan expires.

*The replacement product or parts may be new or refurbished to the Epson standard of quality.

Description

With its compact and robust design, the Epson ColorWorks C4000 Label Printer was created by Epson as a replacement upgrade to the rugged and dependable Epson ColorWorks C3500. Featuring print speeds up to 4.0″ per second4, a full-color LCD screen and up to 1200 x 1200 dpi print resolution, the Epson CW-C4000 produces crisp photo-quality color images for both cost and inventory reductions comparable to pre-printed labels. The upgraded print engine is equivalent to the quality of the Epson ColorWorks C6000/C6500 series, which includes the popular Epson ColorWorks C6000A and Epson ColorWorks C6500A color label printers. Likewise, the Epson ColorWorks C4000 Inkjet Label Printer delivers on-demand, color labels at a comparable price to black-and-white thermal transfer printers2.

What’s in the Box

Helpful Tip: Epson states that when using the printer for the first time, the replacement interval for the maintenance box is shorter than usual as ink charging consumes the ink. This is why Texas Label Printers recommends that customers also purchase an additional maintenance box and an additional set of ink cartridges at the time of purchase.

7 reviews for Epson ColorWorks C4000 Label Printer

  1. James F

    This was a perfect label printer for me. Allowed the flexibility and versatility that I needed starting up with several different products.

  2. Brian P

    I love my new Epson c4000, shipping was fast !

  3. Joanna H

    This printer is great, and Texas Label Printers are very helpful. This printer is pretty new, so finding information online is limited. I had to call so Texas Label can walk me through the process which wasn’t too bad.

  4. Rich P

    I recently purchased the Epson 4000 to help facilitate our small business needs. I only wish I would’ve done this sooner! The whole team at Texas label Printers has made this transition seamless. Thank you!

  5. Sterling W

    Our company needed a method of printing custom labels in house since our label suppliers have high minimum order quantities and may take up to 4 weeks to finish. Upon research I found the Epson label printers were best suited for our application and started to compare the C3500 vs the C6000. I could not decide between the C3500 with a max resolution of 720 dpi x 360 dpi or the significantly more expensive C6000 with a max resolution of 1200 dpi.

    After looking around I found a Epson announcement on their website introducing the Colorworks C4000 which would turn out to be perfect for us. The build and cost was quite similar to the C3500 but Epson swapped out the low-quality MicroPiezo Inkjet for the Inkjet PrecisionCore TFP found in the C6000 printer.

    I contacted multiple companies of which did not have the printer in stock yet. Texas Label Printers did a great job of keeping me updated on stock and helping me throughout the process.

    After using the printer for a few months it has been nothing but perfect for us. For anyone new to printing labels, Epson posts videos online showing how to use the printer. I would also get familiar with the printer properties on your computer and read through the Technical Reference Guide. There you can set the label size, quality, etc. I then make Print Position Adjustments from the printer menu so I am able to print right up to the edge of the label without bleeding onto the backing. Make sure to purchase extra cartridges of ink as the startup process does use a lot from the supplied cartridges.

    For people completely new to creating labels: Information is quite limited for beginners to find an application to create their labels. I currently use Affinity Publisher to create my labels which provides everything you could need with a plethora of videos online for reference. If you are unfamiliar it may take a bit to learn but will be completely worth it.

      Wow! Thank you Sterling for sharing such a detailed review of the Epson ColorWorks C4000! The feedback you provided regarding your experience with this printer will certainly be helpful to others.

      Furthermore, it sounds like you have a better understanding of how to create labels and operate the printer than most, but if you ever need further setup or technical assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our in-house Technical Support Department.

  6. Stephanie W

    This printer is fantastic and Texas Label Printers are so helpful. This printer is pretty new, so finding information online is limited. The folks at TLP are always around to help and have helped me configure print settings.

    Download the Technical manual, it is a lifesaver! Once you adjust the print head alignment and your cutting preferences, you’ll love this printer. Prints are high-quality and color is vibrant. If you use colors from design software, you may need to adjust the color settings on the printer which is pretty easy as well.

    Working with Texas Label Printers was fabulous, I highly recommend them. The one small thing I don’t love about the printer is the cutting. The cuts are accurate, but if you’re cutting a 4″ wide label, there may be a bit of a curve to the cut.

    • Texas Label Printers LLC

      Thank you for the positive feedback about our company and the review of the new Epson C4000! Our Tech Support Department confirmed the slight curve associated with the autocutter is normal. This behavior occurs with the Epson C3500 too due to the type of autocuter that is used in both of these printers. The curve that you are describing only impacts users who print on continuous media (it does not matter for die-cut labels since the cut occurs in the gap between labels). We recommend the Epson C6000A or Epson C6500A for users who primarily print on continuous media and require the autocutter to cut straight.

  7. Michael F

    I am new to the label printing world and really hoping to up my game with the C4000. Our main objective is creating professional looking labeling for grab and go items for our catering company. We are happy with results. There is clarity of print for small font sizes, colors are vibrant, and print speed is quick.

    Setup was intuitive and easy. The biggest learning curve for us will be the need to improve our image files. I will update as we progress.
