Epson SureColor SC-F2260 DTG/DTF Printer
The third generation of Epson's tried and true desktop DTG printer, with added DTF functionality
The SureColor F2260 blends Epson's proven production platform with upgraded components, improved ergonomics, and new ink to offer superior performance. With a 33% larger PrecisionCore printhead, it can print faster and more than its predecessor.
If you're doing direct-to-film (DTF) printing, get excited! The F2260 comes with enhanced Garment Creator 2 software that is jammed packed with featured and functionality aimed at DTF printing.
Epson has taken significant measures to improve the operator experience. The printer features a more ergonomic design with a squarer side, flat top, transparent platen cover, and integrated interior lighting.
The 4.3-inch touch panel display is larger, and the loading bay is cleaner with repositioned controls. Adjusting the macro head-height is now simpler, and the printer has an automatic fine head-height adjustment for optimal quality, speed, and convenience.
The SC-F2260 also uses upgraded ink, UltraChrome DG2, which supports a wider range of fabrics with better colour and less bleed. Moreover, it is compatible with DTF workflows.
To reduce waste and costs, the printer uses 800 ml ink pouches that are 33% larger and incorporate less plastic than the cartridges used by its predecessor. It also operates quietly without a fan, and without the need for regular filter replacement.
Like its predecessor, the SC-F2260 incorporates a head that does not require regular replacement. This feature improves productivity, reduces parts and labour costs, and minimises e-waste. If a failure occurs, the head is included under a comprehensive on-site warranty with optional CoverPlus extension for up to five years.
The new model also includes integrated Epson Cloud Solution PORT support, which provides enhanced operator monitoring tools, web and mobile access, and direct access to Epson technicians for rapid resolution of any problems.
Epson's commitment to sustainability is also evident in the various features designed to minimise waste and reduce expenses.

System Requirements | |||
A personal computer will be required for installation and operation of this printing system. When using the USB Direct Print function files must be processed through Garment Creator first. Garment Creator 2 requires a PC or Mac with a processor that has power equivalent or better than an Intel Core i7 8th generation, at least 2 GB memory (16 GB recommended), 32 GB or more storage (SSD recommended), Win 8.1 64bit / Mac OS 10.12 or higher and a monitor with at least 1024 x 768 resolution. DTG operation generally requires fabric to be pre-treated. Some garment suppliers provide stock pre-treated. If using untreated stock, it will need to be processed; this can be done manually (roller or spray application) however a pre-treatment machine is recommended for optimum results. Direct-to-film (DTFilm) operation will require additional 3rd party film and powder. For optimum results an oven is also recommended. Powder application must be done away from the printer. Different films and powders behave differently with customers recommended to consult with their GJS sales engineer for advice on brand selection, print and process settings A heat press with variable temperature control will be required. GJS offer a variety of heat presses in various sizes and formats. |
