Epson & DCC Dye Sublimation Printers | Professional Equipment

High-Performance Dye Sublimation Printing Solutions

Dye sublimation has become the industry standard for creating high-margin, custom products with vibrant, "permanent" color. At Lawson Screen & Digital Products, we curate a selection of Dye Sublimation Printers that cater to everyone from hobbyist startups to high-volume industrial facilities.

Why Choose Epson & DCC Sublimation Technology?

Our partnership with brands like Epson and DCC ensures your shop stays ahead of the curve with the latest in printhead technology and ink efficiency.

  • Vibrant, Durable Results: Unlike topical prints, sublimation dyes become part of the substrate. Whether you are printing on polyester apparel or sublimation-ready hard goods, your designs will never crack, peel, or fade.
  • Scalable Solutions: Start small with the Epson SureColor F570 Professional Edition—a desktop powerhouse for mugs and small apparel—or scale up to the DCC NeoChroma for high-speed, wide-format production.
  • Low Cost of Operation: Modern F-Series printers are designed for efficiency, utilizing high-capacity ink tanks that significantly lower your cost-per-print compared to traditional cartridges.

Applications for Your Sublimation Business

The versatility of a sublimation setup allows you to expand into multiple markets with a single machine:

  1. Custom Apparel: Full-color jerseys, performance wear, and polyester t-shirts.
  2. Promotional Products: Personalized mugs, phone cases, and awards.
  3. Soft Signage: Trade show banners, flags, and backlit displays.
  4. Hard Surfaces: Chromaluxe metal prints, ceramic tiles, and wood panels.

Commercial Epson & DCC Dye Sublimation Printing Solutions


Building a profitable custom products business requires rich, vibrant color output that won't fade or wash out over time. Unlike surface-applied transfer films, wide-format dye sublimation embeds inks deep into polyester fibers and polymer-coated substrates. Sourcing an industrial dye sublimation printer enables your print shop to deliver high-margin custom sportswear, soft signage, and personalized promotional products with incredible color accuracy and ultra-low cost-per-print.

Dye Sublimation Printers: FAQ

What is the best dye-sublimation printer for a small business or startup?


For startups and growing boutique shops, the Epson SureColor F570 Professional Edition is the top choice. It is a compact 24-inch desktop unit featuring precision color management software and easy-to-fill high-capacity ink tanks.

Can I use a dye sublimation printer on 100% cotton t-shirts?


No. Sublimation dyes require polyester synthetic fibers or specialized polymer coatings to bond properly. For 100% cotton garments, we recommend using Direct-to-Garment (DTG) or Direct-to-Film (DTF) equipment. Sublimation is designed for 100% polyester apparel, performance sportswear, and polymer-coated hard goods.

What is the primary difference between desktop and industrial sublimation printers?


Desktop units like the Epson F570 handle sheet-fed or narrow roll paper ideal for lower volumes. Industrial printers like the DCC NeoChroma series or wide-format Epson F-Series units offer larger print widths (up to 64"), significantly faster linear print speeds, and bulk ink feed systems to drastically reduce per-print production costs.

Do I need a special heat press for dye sublimation printing?


Yes. Sublimation requires a high-quality commercial heat press capable of consistently maintaining 400°F (200°C) with uniform, heavy clamping pressure across the entire platen surface.

Does Lawson provide setup training and technical support for sublimation printers?


Yes. Lawson Workhorse Group provides complete installation support, color management guidance, and USA-based technical assistance out of our distribution hubs in St. Louis, MO, and Atlanta, GA.
