The Brother SP-1 is a compact sublimation printer for transferring full-color designs onto items such as t-shirts, tote bags, ceramic mugs, metal tumblers and coasters. It works on light-colored polyester fabric (65% or higher) and on polymer-coated items. This bundle pairs the printer with the Brother SE700 combo embroidery machine.
The SP-1 prints at up to 1,200 x 2,400 dpi, in either Quality Mode or Speed Mode. It handles print sizes up to 8.5 x 14 inches (legal). It comes with a full set of Brother Genuine Ink cartridges and 10 sheets of sublimation paper. A heat press is required to transfer the printed designs.
Designs can be created, edited and sent wirelessly to the printer with Brother's free Artspira app. The app includes over 100 free sublimation designs, plus templates, fonts, editing tools, AR functionality and image conversion tools. The printer cleans its print head automatically to help prevent clogs, including after long periods of inactivity.
