Description
The Epson SureColor DS series was developed from the ground up to provide a superior solution for Dye Sublimation. Printers offer enhanced image quality with a lower running cost, all backed with a comprehensive factory warranty. The SC-F160 is a compact desktop model designed for low volume custom merchandise and décor production. It is particularly suited to photo imaging and merchandise work. It features an extremely compact design with simple operation and a convenient Continuous Ink Supply System (CISS). Prints are made on paper which can be transferred (sublimated) via a heat press onto material with a polyester base or polyester pre-treatment. Supplied as a package complete with ink and media, it can be driven by common graphic design and photo editing software.
The SureColor F160 uses inexpensive ink and A4 sheet-based media. Ink ships in bottles and is loaded into a small tank system while paper is loaded via a tray. It features the latest Epson print head and image processing technology that work together with the ink to enable high quality imaging with fine gradation and a wide gamut. It is easy to operate and prints quickly. Output can be sublimated onto polyester fabric and substrates that will accept a polyester coating and have moderate heat tolerance. The printer can be used with a variety of low-cost 3rd party heat presses.
