The new hybrid printer will help print providers to bring custom apparel to market while minimizing waste and environmental impact
LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. – Sept. 6, 2023 – Epson today announced the new hybrid SureColor® F2270 printer is now available. Purpose-built for both direct-to-garment (DTG) and digital-transfer-film (DTFilm) printing, the SureColor F2270 combines outstanding image quality, easy operation and great value in a highly intuitive design. DTFilm printing allows print providers go beyond traditional clothing printing to transfer to a variety of different materials, such as unique shaped items like shoes, hats or mugs.
Paisley Jo Designs specializes in custom apparel for schools, clubs, businesses, team sports, and boutique clothing. Kim Johnson, the owner of Paisley Jo Designs has used the SureColor F2270 with great success in her business. She cites maintenance, crisp printing quality, hybrid features and operation as advantages to her business.
“The SureColor F2270 is a huge asset to our business; we are able to offer vibrant, full color graphics with the soft feel that customers want,” said Johnson. “The hybrid features allow us to easily move from printing digital film transfers to shirts without making any adjustments on the printer, which helps with production times. Epson has gone above and beyond with this new technology and the features offered in the F2270 – it will be a game changer for a lot of businesses.”
PrecisionCore® MicroTFP printheads and UltraChrome Next-Generation® DG2 Ink, the SureColor F2270 delivers vibrant colors and photographic details at impressive speeds – up to 20% faster when printing on dark garments.1 Print shops can reduce waste and impact on the environment by using a bulk ink system that does not require cartridges.
Additional features are designed to bring a new level of productivity and efficiency, including automatic garment thickness adjustment and robust Epson Garment Creator 2 software. Features that are easy to maintain and reduce downtime include the large 4.3-inch touchscreen, the quick-load platen, and access to Epson Cloud Solution.3 It provides live monitoring of printers, including production and usage data.
“The SureColor F2270 is a hybrid print solution built for quality, reliability and versatility. But more than that, the printer was designed with our customers in mind – helping them do it right the first time saves time, money and physical resources,” said Tim Check, senior product manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America, Inc. “The market reception to this product has been exciting and we are eagerly anticipating the results and feedback from our customers once they start using this new printer.”
