Decorating Roundup: Epson Offers Two New Dye-Sublimation Printers

Plus, Ninja Transfers has updated its shipping options, and Roland DGA is showing off a new flatbed UV printer.

The digital textile market is growing rapidly, projected to reach nearly $3.4 billion this year, according to a report from The Business Research Company. Helping support that growth, Epson has announced two new industrial SureColor F-Series dye-sublimation printers, which the company says are engineered to achieve both reliability and round-the-clock productivity.

The new models, the SureColor F11070 and SureColor F11070H, offer high productivity and seamless workflow. Also available is an optional large roll media unwinder, and the F11070H features an expanded ink set to support high-volume print shops.
