Meet the Epson SureColor F370: A New 13-Inch Sublimation Printer for Growing Businesses

Ronnie Nunez |

 

The Epson SureColor F370 has arrived, giving sublimation creators and growing businesses a new option between Epson's compact F170 and larger F570.

Designed specifically for dye-sublimation printing, the Epson F370 combines a 13-inch maximum print width, compact desktop footprint, high-capacity ink system, and Epson PrecisionCore® print technology in one purpose-built machine.

If you have outgrown the 8.5-inch print width of an entry-level sublimation printer but are not ready to move into a 24-inch roll-fed system, the F370 fills an important gap in Epson's sublimation printer lineup.

Where Does the Epson F370 Fit in the SureColor Lineup?

One of the biggest reasons the SureColor F370 stands out is its size.

Epson's desktop sublimation lineup now gives creators three distinct options:

The F370 is designed as the step-up option for businesses that want to produce larger sublimation transfers without moving all the way to a wide-format roll printer.

That extra width can make a major difference for apparel decorators, crafters, print shops, schools, and small businesses looking to expand the types of products they can offer.

What Can You Make With a 13-Inch Sublimation Printer?

Moving from an 8.5-inch printer to a 13-inch sublimation printer gives you considerably more room to work with.

The Epson SureColor F370 can accommodate larger designs for products such as:

  • T-shirts and apparel
  • Metal photo panels
  • Towels
  • Tote bags
  • Cushions and pillows
  • Flags
  • Hard sublimation blanks
  • Personalized gifts
  • Home décor

For apparel businesses in particular, the wider print area gives you more flexibility when creating larger front or back graphics that may be difficult to fit onto standard letter-size sublimation paper.

The F370 also supports sheet media up to 13 inches wide, allowing businesses to increase their production capabilities while keeping a relatively compact desktop setup.

Flexible Paper Handling for Everyday Production

The Epson F370 includes two paper paths for added flexibility.

The front paper cassette holds up to 150 sheets and supports media up to 8.5 inches wide, making it convenient for everyday sublimation jobs.

For larger projects, the rear feed accommodates media up to 13 inches wide.

This dual-paper setup means you can keep standard-size media loaded while still having the ability to switch to larger sheets when a job requires additional print space.

For businesses handling a variety of sublimation products, that flexibility can help simplify the production workflow.

High-Capacity Epson Sublimation Ink

The SureColor F370 comes with a full set of genuine Epson CMYK dye-sublimation ink bottles.

Each bottle contains 140 mL of ink, giving the printer a high-capacity refillable ink system designed to reduce how frequently you need to stop and refill.

Epson's dye-sublimation inks are also ECO PASSPORT by OEKO-TEX® certified. When properly applied and fixed to fabric, Epson states that the ink has been tested to applicable standards for use on products intended for adults, children, and babies.

For businesses producing personalized apparel and other sublimated products, using a printer, ink system, print driver, and media ecosystem designed specifically for sublimation can also provide a more predictable production workflow.

PrecisionCore Print Technology Built for Sublimation

At the heart of the Epson SureColor F370 is Epson's PrecisionCore® Micro TFP® printhead.

The F370 is purpose-built for dye-sublimation printing rather than being a converted inkjet printer. Epson has designed the printhead, ink delivery system, print driver, and other components to work together as a complete sublimation solution.

The printer has a maximum resolution of 1200 x 600 dpi and is designed to produce consistent results across photos, patterns, detailed graphics, apparel transfers, and rigid sublimation products.

Expand Beyond Polyester With Epson Sublimation Primer for Cotton

Traditionally, dye sublimation works best with polyester fabrics and polymer-coated blanks.

Epson is also offering Sublimation Primer for Cotton (Sold Separately), which expands the potential applications of the F370 to include white and light-colored cotton, linen, and blended fabrics.

The primer is designed to work within a familiar sublimation transfer process while opening up additional product opportunities such as cotton T-shirts, fashion apparel, home décor, promotional products, and customized gifts.

For businesses already working with sublimation, this gives the F370 the potential to reach a wider variety of products without completely changing the production workflow.

Easy Connectivity for Modern Workspaces

The Epson F370 provides several ways to connect and print, including:

  • Wi-Fi
  • Wi-Fi Direct
  • Ethernet
  • Hi-Speed USB
  • Apple AirPrint®
  • Mobile printing support

A 2.7-inch touchscreen display also provides access to printer controls and guided setup functions directly from the machine.

Whether the F370 is being used in a home-based business, classroom, production space, or print shop, these connectivity options make it easier to integrate into different workflows.

Who Is the Epson SureColor F370 For?

The F370 is especially well suited for someone who wants more production capability than an entry-level desktop sublimation printer but does not necessarily need a 24-inch wide-format system.

It may be a good fit for:

  • Growing sublimation businesses
  • Apparel decorators
  • Etsy and online sellers
  • Crafters expanding into larger products
  • Schools and educational programs
  • Promotional product businesses
  • Print shops adding dye sublimation
  • F170 users who need a larger print area

For businesses that frequently find themselves trying to squeeze designs onto 8.5-inch sheets, moving up to a 13-inch printer can significantly expand the types and sizes of products they are able to produce.

Epson F170 vs. F370 vs. F570

Choosing between the three Epson SureColor sublimation printers largely comes down to the size of the products you plan to produce and the amount of workspace you have available.

The F170 remains a compact option for smaller transfers and everyday sublimation projects.

The F370 increases the maximum print width to 13 inches while retaining a desktop-friendly form factor.

The F570 moves into a larger 24-inch format and is designed for users who need significantly wider production capabilities.

For creators who have outgrown 8.5-inch printing but do not need a full 24-inch system, the F370 provides a natural middle ground.
