The 8-colour ColorPainter H-104S and H-74S printers offer printing speeds up to 55 sqm/h, which are said to be approximately 1.5 - 2 times faster than competing models in the same price/width class. The printers can also print a 100sqm/h in 4-colour mode. These speeds are achieved by utilising eight super-wide, piezo inkjet heads, while maintaining high image quality and density.

The Seiko II ColorPainter H-74s and H-104s are distributed in the UK exclusively by Colourgen.
