Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What separates the older SureColor F7070 from this newer SureColor F7170 model?
  The SureColor F7170 incorporates major design upgrades to its physical roll feeding tracking mechanisms and fabric tension control systems. It integrates an improved post-print heating and drying path layout alongside an enhanced media take-up reel design to prevent paper wrinkling and ink ghosting during highly continuous high-speed industrial printing passes.
• Can I print directly onto polyester fabric garments using the SureColor F7170?
  No. This hardware operates strictly as a dye-sublimation transfer printer. The machine prints mirror-image designs onto specialized wide-format dye-sublimation transfer paper rolls. You then pass the printed paper along with your target polyester fabric through an external rotary calendar or large flatbed heat press to transfer the ink gas into the material strands.
• How does the integrated bulk ink supply tank system optimize production costs?
  Instead of utilizing disposable plastic cartridge chassis blocks, the F7170 utilizes large, built-in 1500 ml reservoir tanks. This layout allows production studios to purchase ink via eco-friendly 1000 ml foil pouch bags, dramatically reducing your cost-per-milliliter metrics and minimizing hardware downtime by allowing on-the-fly ink refills during active printing runs.
