What Is the Epson SureColor F370?
The SureColor F370 is a desktop printer built from the ground up for dye-sublimation, not a converted office inkjet. Epson designed it for makers, Etsy sellers, schools and small customization shops that want larger prints without jumping to a roll-fed production printer. It is small enough for a home studio or classroom, yet it produces transfers big enough for full-size adult t-shirts, towels, totes and photo panels.
Epson product manager Tim Check summed up the goal at launch: creators and small businesses need solutions that are easy to adopt, versatile and able to grow with them.
Key Features of the Epson F370
13″ x 19″ Sublimation Prints
The biggest upgrade over entry-level sublimation printers is width. At 13 inches wide, the F370 handles designs that simply do not fit on letter-size paper, which means higher-value products like adult shirt graphics, spirit towels, pillows, flags and large photo panels.
Two Paper Paths That Switch Automatically
A 150-sheet front cassette holds everyday 8.5″ wide transfers, while a rear tray feeds 13″ wide sheets. The printer picks the right path on its own, so you can queue a mug wrap and an oversize shirt print back to back without swapping paper.
PrecisionCore Printhead Built for Dye-Sub Ink
The PrecisionCore Micro TFP printhead is tuned for dye-sublimation ink, with Variable-Sized Droplet Technology for sharp detail, smooth gradients and predictable color transfer after transfer.
Cartridge-Free T49M Ink
The F370 uses refillable 140 mL Epson T49M ink bottles, the same ink family as the F170 and F570, so shops running more than one Epson sublimation printer can stock one ink. The ink carries ECO PASSPORT by OEKO-TEX certification.
Print From Almost Any Device
Send jobs from an iPad, iPhone, Android phone, Mac or Windows PC over Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, Ethernet or USB. That makes on-the-spot printing easy at pop-up events, in classrooms or at the sales counter.
Beginner-Friendly Setup
A 2.7-inch tilting touchscreen walks you through setup and maintenance, and built-in transfer paper modes in the Epson driver are optimized for both fabric and hard goods.
New: Epson Sublimation Primer for Cotton
Traditional dye-sublimation only works on polyester and polymer-coated blanks. Epson’s new Sublimation Primer for Cotton changes that. It is a liquid pre-treatment that lets you sublimate on white and light-colored cotton and other natural fabrics using your normal transfer paper and heat press workflow. That opens the door to 100% cotton t-shirts, fashion apparel, tote bags and home décor, all printed on the same F370.
The primer is sold separately and is scheduled to launch in November 2026 alongside the printer. We will add application tips once we have it in hand.
Epson F170 vs F370 vs F570: Which Should You Buy?
| SureColor F170 | SureColor F370 | SureColor F570 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maximum media width | 8.5″ | 13″ | 24″ |
| Media format | Cut sheet | Cut sheet, two auto-switching paths | Roll and cut sheet |
| Ink | Epson T49M | Epson T49M | Epson T49M |
| Best for | Hobbyists and letter-size items | Growing makers, Etsy sellers, schools | Production shops and apparel decorators |
If most of your work is mugs, coasters and small prints, the F170 still makes sense. If you want adult shirt graphics and larger panels without the footprint of a 24-inch roll printer, the F370 is the sweet spot. If you run long production jobs or need roll media, look at the F570 or our full range of dye-sublimation printers.

- F170 owners ready to move past letter-size transfers
- Schools and teams printing spirit wear, towels and banners
