The Epson ColorWorks C6000Ae is available in two models, each optimised for different label materials.

BK vs MK – What's the Difference?

The only difference between the two models is the black ink formulation, allowing each printer to produce the best possible results on its intended media.

Feature Gloss Black (BK) Matte Black (MK)
Black Ink Gloss Black Matte Black
Best Media Gloss paper, glossy synthetic, BOPP and film labels Matte paper, uncoated paper and textured labels
Ideal Applications Product packaging, cosmetics and premium retail labels Shipping, logistics, warehouse and industrial labels

Both versions share the same hardware, print quality, connectivity and performance, so choosing the right model simply depends on the label material you use most often.

Flexible Media Handling

The Epson ColorWorks C6000Ae supports label widths from 25.4 mm to 112 mm, giving businesses the flexibility to print everything from small product labels to large industrial and compliance labels. Its innovative movable media sensor allows printing on labels of virtually any shape without requiring a second die cut, helping to reduce production costs while increasing flexibility.

The integrated auto-cutter automatically cuts each label after printing, making it ideal for producing variable-length labels on demand without manual trimming.

Exceptional Print Quality

Using Epson's advanced PrecisionCore® printhead and durable pigment inks, the C6000Ae produces professional-quality labels with sharp text, crisp barcodes and vibrant colours at high resolution. Built-in ICC profile support and spot colour matching ensure consistent colour accuracy across every print, helping maintain brand consistency and meet industry labelling standards.

The pigment inks are highly resistant to water, smudging and fading, making them suitable for demanding commercial and industrial environments.
