Epson recently unveiled two industrial SureColor F-Series dye-sublimation printers engineered to achieve industrial reliability and round-the-clock productivity at a low ownership cost. The new models, SureColor F11070 and SureColor F11070H, offer an optional large roll media unwinder, and the SureColor F11070H features an expanded ink set to support high-volume print shops.

The SureColor F11070 features four 4.7-inch PrecisionCore TFP printheads, and the SureColor F11070H includes six printheads, to deliver roll-to-roll performance at speeds up to 2,700 square feet per hour and 2,635 square feet per hour, respectively. Both models are designed to consistently produce quality textiles, apparel and more using vibrant UltraChrome DS ink technology.

For an expanded color gamut, the SureColor F11070H leverages six color inks with multiple ink configurations available. In addition to Fluorescent Pink/Fluorescent Yellow and Light Cyan/Light Magenta configurations, a new Orange and Violet ink set extends the range of printable colors possible with dye-sublimation.

To minimize downtime, both new industrial printers include user-replaceable printheads, a hot swappable ink delivery system, a high-capacity Replaceable Ink Pack System that holds up to 20 liters of ink per color and an optional large roll media unwinder to help ensure long print runs with less user intervention.

Other features include: Epson Edge Print workflow software featuring Adobe PDF Print Engine, auto paper-tension control and a fabric printhead wiper, an Epson Cloud Solution PORT for live production monitoring, and optimization for Epson DS Transfer Papers.
