Wheeling, WV – July 25, 2025  - Designed with the needs of tattoo studios in mind, the PS-M1000 combines  EPSON’s EcoTank technology with TROY Group’s expertly formulated stencil ink to deliver unmatched reliability, clarity, and ease of use. Backed by over 60 years of in-house ink formulation experience at TROY’s manufacturing headquarters in Wheeling, West Virginia, this proprietary ink reflects a legacy of precision and innovation trusted across industries. 

 

What truly sets the PS-M1000 apart is its clog-resistant ink system. Unlike traditional stencil inks that dry quickly and clog printheads, Purple Stencil’s proprietary ink formulation is engineered for low maintenance and high performance, without sacrificing ink or stencil quality. The printer features an auto-cleaning function that activates during idle periods, preventing buildup and reducing the need for manual cleanings. Artists can spend more time tattooing and less time troubleshooting.  

 

“This isn’t just an off-the-shelf printer, it’s a purpose-built tool for professional tattoo artists,” said Dave Lorenz, Director of Product at TROY Group. “The PS-M1000 eliminates the daily frustrations of desktop stencil printers and replaces them with speed, precision, and confidence.” 

 

Engineered for Tattoo Artists 

The PS-M1000 tackles the most common issues artists face with traditional inkjets while giving them the benefits of modern printers.  

  • Less ink clogging – even after heavy use or long idle periods. 
  • Hardware enhancements – removed paper guides so stencils don’t curl or fold.  
  • Auto-cleaning system – keeps the printer ready without constant maintenance. 
  • Specialized ink – prevents smudging, bleeding, and transfer issues. 
  • Wireless connectivity – including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and NFC for seamless design integration. 

 

 

Why It Matters 

Tattoo studios need tools that work as hard as their artists do. Traditional inkjet printers are messy, unreliable, and not built for the demands of stencil printing. The M1000 solves these problems with efficient ink usage that reduces refills and overhead, fast and clean printing that ensures perfect stencils on the first try, and long-term durability that supports high-volume studios. It’s a smarter investment for artists who value precision, consistency, and professionalism.
