Overview

Improved printhead for higher productivity

The new SC-F2230 is equipped with the latest PrecisionCore MicroTFP Printhead, with an increased printhead width of 1.33 inches and an increased nozzle count from 2,800 nozzles (SC-F2130) to 3,200 nozzles. This brings along significant improvement in print speed; up to 135% faster for light garments and up to 125% faster for dark garments¹.

New ink pack system

The ink cartridge system on the predecessor model has been upgraded to the new ink pack system with an increased capacity of 800ml. This improvement also reduces the weight and space needed for the ink and reduces plastic wastage.

Additionally, with the frontal design, ink packs are easily accessible from the front of the printer, enabling ease of operation for installation and changing of ink packs.

Furthermore, the SC-F2230 is also equipped with the latest UltraChrome DS2 inks. The Cyan, Magenta, Yellow & Black inks have been improved to produce better print quality specifically for Yellow and/ or Black bleeding on light garments that have high water repellency¹.

Auto Gap Adjustment feature

The SC-F2230 is equipped with the Auto Gap Adjustment feature which automatically² moves the printhead carriage to the most suitable printing position. This feature optimises the gap between the printhead and garment to ensure continuous stable prints while also reducing the need for manual platen height adjustments.

Improved usability

The SC-F2230 comes with a smaller footprint as compared to its predecessor model, SC-F2130, making it easier to fit into any working environment and easier for transportation.

Furthermore, the printer is equipped with a 4.33 inches LCD touchscreen display with user-friendly features that improves usability.

Garment Creator 2 software

The Garment Creator software has also been improved, providing a faster processing speed that has been shown to process information 5s faster compared to the previous Garment Creator software¹. The new software also supports 600dpi resolution input, enabling customers to product finer details.
