Epson SureColor F1070 vs Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 UV DTF Printer

These are different tools, not two versions of one. The Epson SureColor F1070 is a hybrid DTG and DTFilm printer: it prints directly onto cotton garments and also onto transfer film, so it suits a shop that sells decorated tees and small runs of apparel. The Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 is a dedicated UV-DTF roll printer that makes peel-and-stick decals for hard goods like glass, metal, plastic and tumblers, with in-line lamination and no heat press. Build-wise the Mimaki is a wider roll-fed production unit with two printheads and automated nozzle checks; the Epson is a compact cartridge-free ink-pack machine with automatic garment height adjustment and a 4.3-inch touchscreen. Pick by the substrate you sell, not by brand.

  • Choose the Epson SureColor F1070 if you decorate cotton t-shirts and apparel and want one compact machine that also handles DTFilm transfers.
  • Choose the Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 if you make peel-and-stick UV decals for hard and curved items like bottles, tumblers and metal, and want in-line lamination.

Questions and answers

Which is better for printing t-shirts?
The Epson F1070, because it prints DTG directly onto cotton garments. The Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 makes UV decals for hard goods and does not print on fabric.
Which handles tumblers and bottles?
The Mimaki. Its UV-DTF decals are peel and stick and conform to curved and cylindrical items without a heat press. The Epson is garment-focused.
Do I need a heat press with either?
With the Epson, yes for DTFilm transfers; DTG printing on garments does not need one. The Mimaki needs no heat press at all.
Which is better for unattended production?
The Mimaki, with automatic nozzle checks, nozzle recovery and a media jam sensor. The Epson is simpler and more manual, aimed at small shops.
Is the Mimaki worth stepping up to?
Only if your business is UV decals on hard goods at volume. If you sell decorated apparel, the Epson covers the job in a smaller footprint.
Which lasts longer?
Both are industrial machines whose life depends on maintenance. The Mimaki's ink circulation and nozzle recovery reduce clogging downtime; the Epson's user maintenance features and ink packs reduce ink-related interruptions.
