Key Takeaways
• Epson announced its new SureColor G9070 direct-to-film printer.
• The SureColor G9070 features printing speeds of 350 square feet per hour and twin-roll printing.
Epson introduced a new expansion to its SureColor G-series wide-format direct-to-film printer: the SureColor G9070, which handles print speeds up to 350 square feet per hour, as well as twin-roll print for printing simultaneously on two rolls.
Additionally, the new printer includes automated maintenance features, which Epson says will make it more appealing to those expanding their own print offerings with new equipment.
“DTFilm is one of the fastest-growing print methods for apparel decorators, and it has long been dominated by generic machines with no local support, leaving customers to handle complex maintenance and repairs on their own,” said Paul G. Morales, product manager, Professional Imaging, for Epson America. “The SureColor G-series printers address a clear market gap by delivering the technology, reliability and consistent print quality Epson is known for, all supported by a robust service and support network. With the SureColor G9070, we now offer a 64-inch solution with several features designed to meet garment decorators’ needs for increased productivity, stunning apparel and reduced downtime.”
The printer’s printhead, a PrecisionCore Micro TFP, is user-replaceable, and it uses a sealed ink-pack system for high-volume printing.
