When a customer asks for a personalized award, mug or mousepad, the Epson SureColor F170 lets you print the sublimation transfer yourself, in your own shop. It's set up for easy printing right out of the box, and its compact, space-saving design helps you make the most of your workshop space.
The auto-feed tray holds up to 150 sheets, and the high-capacity ink bottles mean you replace ink less often. Genuine Epson dye-sublimation ink gives your transfers strong, saturated color with high contrast, and Epson backs the printer with its own service and support.
Key Features
-
Sharp detail on every transfer: the PrecisionCore printhead controls each droplet for outstanding clarity.
-
Color that stands out: Genuine Epson dye-sublimation ink delivers deep color saturation and high contrast.
-
Less time feeding paper: load a stack into the auto-feed tray and it feeds the sheets for you, so you aren't loading them one at a time.
-
Replace ink less often: high-capacity ink bottles with auto-stop make filling easy and mess-free.
-
Ready to print out of the box: streamlined print software made for dye-sublimation comes with the printer, for Mac and Windows.
-
Soft and rigid products: on Epson DS Multi-Use transfer paper, it produces great images on both soft and rigid materials.
-
Wired or wireless: connect over Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, Ethernet or USB, and check the color display on the printer itself.
-
Saves workshop space: the compact design leaves you more room for the rest of your setup.
-
Backed by Epson: Epson's own service and support stand behind the printer.
Applications
-
Awards: personalize each one with a name, date or logo.
-
Mugs: print a customer's photo or design for a one-of-a-kind gift.
-
Mousepads: custom designs for businesses, teams and gifts.

More soft and rigid items: the same transfer paper works on both, so you can keep adding products.
