Epson, as many know are technology experts and their print heads are used by many other OEMs.
Now Epson is taking on the competitive DTG market with the launch of their SureColor SC-F2000.
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.
The ink is claimed to be crack resistant and is available in two sets of CMYK ink for white garments or CMYK with up to four white inks for coloured garments.
The equipment comes with Garment Creator software which includes a cost calculation function, allowing you to estimate the print cost by calculating the amount and cost of the ink used for each print job. The design side of the software enables the creative mind to extend itself in order to produce some elaborate design. Garments p to 25mm thick can be accommodated which should include almost any garment.
The 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, which increases productivity, allowing deadlines to be met consistently.
The SC-F2000 offers a resolution of up to 1440x1440dpi for accurate dot shape and placement, while its wide colour gamut produces vibrant colours, sharp contours and smooth gradations
