Buyer Beware: Not an Authorized Epson Reseller
I purchased an Epson SureColor F170 from 6Ave through Amazon and discovered during setup that I could not register the printer with Epson. After contacting Epson customer support, I was informed that 6Ave is not an authorized Epson reseller for this product. As a result, Epson would not allow me to register the printer, which raises concerns about warranty coverage and access to manufacturer support. Had this been disclosed before purchase, I would have purchased from an authorized dealer instead. Consumers should be clearly informed when a seller is not authorized by the manufacturer, especially for a product that represents a significant investment. Very disappointing experience.

Excellent quality results from this little printer!
I read reviews for a lot of sublimation printers, and this always came out top within my price range. The results are fabulous. I’ve used it to produce images on t-shirts, bags, beer koozies, aluminum, glass and mugs, and so far I haven’t been disappointed at all! I’m using a Mac with Cricut, and it takes a while to get used to the Epson Mac setup, so here’s my tip. You need to print mirrored, especially if you have text, so that when you heat press your work it ends up the correct way around. The Mac driver automatically mirrors everything by default, but you still need the mirror on if you use Cricut, so that the cutting device knows exactly where to cut. So leave the mirror on with Cricut Maker and choose “print with system dialogue” and under the printer info section of the pop up when you go to print, turn off the mirroring. Also, the printer dialogue window never seems to come to the front of the other windows, so don’t sit and wait for hours wondering why it’s not printing. Move your Cricut Maker window and find the print window. I’m super happy with the results I’m getting. I’m using original Epson ink so I don’t void any warranty, and I’m using regular sublimation paper. Enjoy your crafting!!

Works great as advertised
Style: Printer & Inks, Style: Printer & Inks
Working great so far! Enjoying starting doing sublimation work. A rookie a few weeks in and it's going well. Print quality is decent. Not having paper jam issues. Was easy to setup. I had to goto Epson and download a current print driver to get all the print properties and printer settings I needed. Was easy. After I installed the 2nd driver and saw it worked better, then I uninstalled the 1st epson driver. Helped allow for 8.5 x 14 page size and high quality. Just a few options needed that were not showing on the original print driver. Took me a few days to figure out what was going on. It helped with the quality of the prints after I got the better driver. So the end product is better also.

Prints great, wifi was an issue
Style: Printer & Inks
Got the printer a week ago and have printed something every day so far and the quality of the prints have been fantastic. Arrived and set up without any major issues, other than not being able to connect to my local wifi. Had to get an Ethernet cable to connect to it.
