Epson, known for technology expertise and their print heads are used by many other OEMs, is now taking on the competitive DTG market with the launch of their SureColor SC-F2000 fabric printer. It’s a growing market with many entrepreneurs finding that with the relatively small capital investment they can buy into the world of garment printing which usually means T-Shirt printing. The SureColor SC-F2000 comes with a many new features that when combined with speed, low maintenance and running costs, it all makes for an attractive business proposition.
SC-F2000 is capable of printing a single white t-shirt in 27 seconds when using dual colour mode and a dark coloured t-shirt in 111 seconds, using white and colour ink, so production is quick without sacrificing print quality. When used in conjunction with Epson’s UltraChrome DG Ink (available in 250 or 600ml cartridges), the SureColor SC-F2000 excels on dark fabric, because its white ink is tough. The white ink is circulated within the system and has been designed to reduce clogging.
