The Epson SureColor SC‑F1000 is a desktop‑sized hybrid direct‑to‑garment (DTG) and direct‑to‑film (DTFilm) printer designed for small businesses, retail environments, hobbyists and in‑store customisation services. It supports printing on a wide range of textiles, including cotton, polyester, blends, nylon, denim, leather and other fabric types, offering the ability to print onto both light and dark media thanks to its integrated white ink mode. Built around Epson’s PrecisionCore Micro TFP printhead technology and NVT (Nozzle Verification Technology), it maintains print accuracy across operations while simplifying maintenance.
Measuring approximately 90 × 70 cm, the SC‑F1000 is compact enough to fit on a desk or counter and is designed for ease‑of‑use even by operators without specialist training. It includes built‑in lighting and a transparent cover to let users observe print jobs in progress. The printer accepts Epson Ultrachrome DG2 inks in bag form (approx. 250 ml capacity), delivering improved colourfastness and wash durability while preventing ink migration. The SC‑F1000 operates with a three‑year on‑site warranty in the UK and is priced around £4 995 + VAT (£5 994 inc VAT) depending on vendor and configuration. It is suitable for high‑impact customised textile products, film transfers, event printing, and low‑volume production settings.
