The Epson C13T57SB20 is a genuine 1.6 L UltraChrome DF maintenance liquid pack for the Epson SureColor G6070 35″ DTFilm Printer and the Epson SureColor G9070 64″ DTF Film Printer. Unlike a one-time flush, this pack stays installed in the printer and is drawn on automatically as part of the capping and wiping system, keeping the station clean while you print.
What Epson C13T57SB20 Maintenance Liquid Does
Keeps the Capping Station Clean
The printer periodically draws on the maintenance liquid to flush the capping station and tubing, removing dried ink, dust and fabric fibers that build up from DTF film printing. This keeps the printhead sealed and capped correctly between jobs.
Runs Automatically During Printing
Maintenance liquid is not something you manually trigger. It installs like an ink pack and the printer manages it in the background as part of its normal maintenance cycles, so you just monitor the level and swap the pack when it runs low.
Same Pack Format as Your Ink
The maintenance liquid comes in the same 1.6 L pack style as UltraChrome DF ink and installs in the printer’s dedicated maintenance slot, following the on-screen instructions on your G6070 or G9070.
Compatible Printers
| Printer | Model | Width |
|---|---|---|
| Epson SureColor G6070 35″ DTFilm Printer | SCG6070SE | 35″ |
| Epson SureColor G9070 64″ DTF Film Printer | SCG9070PE | 64″ |
C13T57SB20 works only with Epson SureColor G-Series DTF printers that use UltraChrome DF ink. It is not for the SureColor F-Series DTG printers or for sublimation printers.
Maintenance Liquid vs. Cleaning Liquid
Epson G6070 and G9070 printers use two different liquids. Maintenance Liquid (C13T57SB20) stays installed during everyday printing as part of the automated capping and wiping system. Cleaning Liquid (C13T57Y100) is only used when you flush the ink system or put the printer into storage mode. Keep both on hand.

What is Epson C13T57SB20?
C13T57SB20 is Epson’s genuine 1.6 L maintenance liquid pack for the UltraChrome DF ink system used in the Epson SureColor G6070 35″ DTFilm Printer and Epson SureColor G9070 64″ DTF Film Printer. It stays installed in the printer and is used automatically to keep the capping station and tubing clean.
Which printers is C13T57SB20 compatible with?
Epson lists two compatible printers: the Epson SureColor G6070 35″ DTFilm Printer and the Epson SureColor G9070 64″ DTF Film Printer. It does not fit F-Series DTG printers or sublimation printers.
How is maintenance liquid different from cleaning liquid?
Maintenance Liquid (C13T57SB20) stays installed during normal printing and is used automatically to flush the capping station and tubing. Cleaning Liquid (C13T57Y100) is only used for a manual ink-system flush or to put the printer into storage mode. They are different packs and are not interchangeable.
Do I need to do anything to use C13T57SB20?
No manual steps during normal use. Install the pack in the printer’s maintenance slot and the printer draws on it automatically as part of its regular capping and wiping cycles. Just monitor the level on the control panel and replace the pack when it runs low.
How long does one C13T57SB20 pack last?
Usage depends on print volume and how often the printer caps and wipes the printhead. Higher daily print volume uses maintenance liquid faster. Check the level on your printer’s control panel and keep a spare pack on hand.
What happens if maintenance liquid runs out?
The printer will alert you on the control panel and may pause maintenance cycles until a fresh pack is installed. Running low can leave the capping station without enough liquid to clean properly, so replace the pack as soon as the printer flags it low.
Can I use third-party maintenance liquid in a G6070 or G9070?
Epson recommends genuine C13T57SB20 maintenance liquid. Non-genuine fluids may not be compatible with UltraChrome DF ink or the PrecisionCore printhead, and damage from non-genuine supplies may not be covered by Epson’s warranty.
Do I need both maintenance liquid and cleaning liquid?
Yes. Keep C13T57SB20 installed for day-to-day automated maintenance, and keep C13T57Y100 Cleaning Liquid on hand for when you need to flush the ink system or put the printer into storage mode.
What other maintenance supplies does the G6070 need?
Along with UltraChrome DF ink and cleaning liquid, keep a C13S400262 Head Cleaning Set on hand for routine printhead maintenance.
Is this a genuine Epson product?
Yes. Buffalo Imaging is an authorized Epson dealer and sells only genuine Epson C13T57SB20 maintenance liquid.
