Epson’s new hybrid printer, the SureColor® F2270, is now in the market for purchase. Designed for both direct-to-garment (DTG) and digital-transfer-film (DT Film) printing, it’s exclusively compatible with Epson ink packs and is available through Epson Authorized Professional Imaging Resellers at an MSRP of US $ 18,995. Revealed for the first time in June 2023, this printer’s DT Film printing feature enables manufacturers to work with a broader range of materials beyond traditional garment printing.
The SureColor® F2270 features a PrecisionCore® MicroTFP print head and UltraChrome® DG2 Ink, ensuring colours and photographic details. It achieves printing speeds up to 20 per cent faster on dark garments. The print-head technology automatically adapts for optimal performance, ensuring top-quality garment prints. Additionally, with a cartridge-free bulk ink pack system, print shops can reduce waste and contribute to a more environmentally friendly printing process.
Tim Check, Senior Product Manager at Epson America Inc., highlighted the printer’s customer-centric design, aiming to assist users in achieving precise results from the outset, thus saving time, costs, and environmental resources. Check expressed anticipation for the product’s reception and eagerly awaits feedback from customers as they begin to use their exclusive innovation.
Additionally, The SureColor® F2270 offers an extra range of features such as automatic garment thickness adjustment, powerful Epson Garment Creator 2 software, 4.3-inch touchscreen interface, a convenient quick-load platen, and access to the Epson Cloud Solution PORT3, allowing for real-time printer monitoring, including production rates and utilization data.
