Epson launches new DTF SC G-9000 printer

Epson SureColor G9000

Epson has launched the SureColor G9000, a new high-production direct to film (DTF) printer aimed at commercial garment decorators and textile producers seeking higher productivity and reliability.

The SC-G9000 expands Epson’s DTF portfolio alongside the SC-G6000 and is positioned as the company’s first high-production, roll-to-roll DTF system.

Epson says the SC-G9000 has been developed as a complete, fully integrated solution, with Epson-manufactured printer hardware, print heads, inks, and software designed to work together to ensure consistent quality and long-term reliability.

The launch reflects Epson’s continued investment in fast-growing textile printing segments.

Grant Cooke, Product Manager, Commercial & Industrial Printing, Epson Europe, said: “With the launch of the SC-G9000, Epson is strengthening its leadership in the fast-growing DTFilm market.

“Customers have told us they need greater productivity, more reliability and less hands-on maintenance. The SC-G9000 delivers on all fronts, giving demanding production environments a high-performance solution engineered entirely by Epson.”

At the heart of the system is Epson’s PrecisionCore Micro TFP print head technology, combined with a built-in front heater, and 1.6-litre UltraChrome DF ink pouches intended to support sustained throughput.

Automation is a key focus of the SC-G9000, with daily maintenance tasks carried out automatically. These include a fabric wiper that cleans the printhead and automated suction cap cleaning, reducing operator involvement and helping to maximise uptime in production environments.

The printer supports media widths up to 1626mm, and features user-replaceable print heads to minimise downtime.

Workflow support includes Epson Edge Print Pro and Fiery Digital Factory Epson Production Edition RIP software, as well as compatibility with third-party RIP solutions.

The Epson SureColor G9000 will be available through authorised resellers from summer 2026.
