Sawgrass Releases SubliJet IQ Production System for the Epson 4000

MOUNT PLEASANT, SC - Sawgrass Technologies, Inc. announces the release of SubliJet IQ digital transfer inks for the Epson Stylus Pro 4000. Setting new standards of productivity for sublimation, this system provides users an operating cost that is 33% lower than previously released platforms. A dual CMYK printing mode and performance efficiencies delivered by SubliJet IQ give users maximum output yield at the lowest cost per transfer for any desktop sublimation system.

The power of the Epson 4000 system is speed and profitability. Users can now print up to 20 t-shirt sized transfers in 17 minutes. Each ink color is supplied through an individual cartridge, allowing users to replace only the ink(s) needed without wasting unused color or adding to costs. Sawgrass’ ability to continually improve product performance through new technology advancements gives users a system designed to generate higher profit margins.

“When used with our PowerDriver IQ color management software, SubliJet IQ lets users cost-effectively produce vivid, photo-realistic images,” explains Christopher Bernat, Business Manager, Sublimation Division for Sawgrass, “The 17” X 22” output of the 4000 makes this system versatile enough for production runs of Soft L’ink t-shirts, interior signage, mugs, mousepads, awards and gift items among others.“
