Maximizing profitability in direct-to-garment (DTG) printing requires expanding beyond standard t-shirts.

Whether operating an Epson SureColor F2100, F2270, or production-class F3070, using quick-change platens ensures sharp registration and minimal downtime between runs.

Epson DTG Platens & Pallets: FAQ

Are these platens compatible with the Epson SureColor F2270 and F2100 printers?

Yes. Our selection includes platens designed for the full lineup of Epson DTG models, including the SureColor F2000, F2100, F2270, and F3070 printer series.

What are the benefits of using a TucLoc platen?

TucLoc (Livingston) platens feature a patented garment clamping mechanism that securely holds fabric in place without spray adhesives. This speeds up production, eliminates sticky buildup on platens, and keeps garments cleaner during the DTG printing process.

How do hoodie and zipper platens prevent printhead strikes?

Hoodie and zipper platens utilize channel grooves and elevated riser surfaces so zippers, seams, and thick pockets drop below the print level. This allows the printable surface of the garment to lay completely flat, preventing physical collisions with the printer's sensitive printhead.

Can I print on shoes and hats using my Epson DTG printer?

Yes. With specialty attachments like the Lawson Shoe Platen or Livingston Hat Platen, you can print direct designs onto canvas shoes, side panels, and unstructured caps using standard Epson DTG ink sets.

Does Lawson offer custom DTG platen sizes?

Yes. Lawson Workhorse Group provides custom DTG platen engineering tailored to your unique print requirements, with expert setup assistance available from our hubs in St. Louis, MO, and Atlanta, GA.
