As demand for domestically made products continues to surge, it is more important than ever for textile and apparel print shops to fulfill large, custom orders in shorter lead times. Epson has expanded its lineup of textile printing offerings with the industrial-level SureColor® F10070H dye-sublimation seventy-six-inch wide format printer to meet evolving customer needs.
Delivering round-the-clock productivity at unmatched speeds and at a lower price than comparable solutions (note: in the $50k to $180k price range), the SureColor F10070H offers multiple ink configurations, including Light Cyan and Light Magenta or Fluorescent Pink and Fluorescent Yellow, enabling shops to deliver bright and vivid customized apparel, décor and novelty goods just in time.
“As textile and apparel manufacturers expand production strategies to meet faster lead times, the SureColor F10070H enables shops to create high-quality customized clothing, unique sportswear, individualized novelty products, customized socks, décor pillows, and more in the amount needed,” said Tim Check, senior product manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America. “The industrial-level SureColor F10070H enables producers to support just in time digital production, eliminating the need for stockpiling garments and allowing shops to easily replenish weekly demand.
“Moreover, the SureColor F10070H is one of the fastest in its price point and costs about half the price of competitive solutions available today.”
With six new user-replaceable 4.7-inch PrecisionCore® printheads and UltraChrome® DS6 ink technology (note: this product uses only genuine Epson-brand ink packs, while other brands of ink packs and ink supplies are not compatible and, even if compatible, may not function properly), the SureColor F10070H delivers industrial-level, roll-to-roll performance at speeds up to 2,635 square feet an hour with exceptional color saturation and high contrast. (Note: Print speeds are based on the print engine speed only. Total throughput time for any print depends on various factors including workstation configuration, file size, print resolution, ink coverage and networking. Actual print speeds will vary.)
Leveraging six-colors, including Light Cyan and Light Magenta or Fluorescent Pink and Fluorescent Yellow ink configurations, the SureColor F10070H provides the ability to expand color gamut and bring bright, vivid colors to the production of custom sportswear, fashion items, décor, soft signage, and more with high levels of personalization.
The cost-effective, high-capacity replaceable ink pack system holds 20L of ink per color, allowing for longer print runs with less user intervention. Engineered for demanding industrial environments, the SureColor F10070H includes advanced auto paper-tension control and a fabric head wiper for simple, continuous production with predictable performance.
A true turnkey solution for seamless workflow, the SureColor F10070H comes equipped with easy-to-use Epson Edge® workflow software featuring an Adobe® PostScript® 3™ engine for color management, smart nesting, pattern repeats, and more. The printer also comes with Epson Cloud Solution PORT, providing a live view of the printer fleet including production rates and printer utilization to optimize workflow.
