Epson Unveils the SureColor F1070 Hybrid Printing Solution

 

 Epson has launched the SureColor® F1070, a hybrid printing solution now available to garment decorators, entrepreneurs, artisan businesses, and print service providers. This versatile, easy-to-use printer is specifically designed for both direct-to-garment (DTG) and direct-to-film (DTFilm) printing, accommodating a range of materials and uniquely shaped products. Compact and cost-effective, the SureColor F1070 delivers high-quality output, enabling designers to focus more on their creative pursuits.

Steven Salazar, a business owner, praised the SureColor F1070 for its user-friendly features and minimal maintenance needs. 

"We're thrilled with the performance of the SureColor F1070; it seamlessly reintroduced DTG into our shop and added DTFilm capabilities, eliminating the need for outsourcing prints and boosting revenue," said Salazar. "The Epson UltraChrome® DG2 inks deliver vibrant results on both DTG and DTFilm output, and its virtually maintenance-free operation has been such a relief. It has become an integral part of our daily operations, and we're excited to continue growing the business with its hybrid capabilities."

The SureColor F1070 excels in image quality, operational ease, and flexible performance within a compact design. Its minimalist exterior features transparent viewing panels that offer a captivating view of the printing process. Equipped with a PrecisionCore® MicroTFP printhead and Nozzle Verification Technology, alongside UltraChrome DG2 ink with CMYK+Wh, the printer consistently produces vibrant colors and sharp details. The cartridge-free ink pack system reduces the frequency of ink replacement, supporting uninterrupted printing for consistent productivity and performance.

The DTFilm printing capability expands beyond traditional garment printing, allowing users to transfer personalized designs onto a variety of materials, including uniquely shaped items. Additional features include automatic garment height adjustment for printing on fabrics up to one inch thick, an innovative touchscreen menu, and an automated maintenance system with a fabric wiper cassette and capping station to maintain printhead integrity. The robust Epson Garment Creator 2 software enables designers and print service providers to bring their creative concepts to life on high-quality garments and products.

"Design versatility is crucial for small business designers, and having a cost-effective hybrid DTG and DTFilm printing solution can be a game-changer," said Lily Hunter, Product Manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America. "The SureColor F1070 offers an affordable, yet powerful solution to empower entrepreneurs and designers to unleash their creativity, foster innovation, and compete in the ever-evolving market landscape."
