What's Included

Sawgrass Logo

*Printer may ship separately from included inks.*

Chromablast ink and paper work together to chemically bond your design to 100% cotton, opening the door to long-lasting color on cotton apparel.

The perfect printer for the hobbyist or moonlighter, the SG500 fits comfortably on a desktop, and prints on media up to 8.5˝ x 14˝ (22 x 36 cm). This allows you to apply custom artwork to a wide variety of popular, high-margin items.

The SG500 has the compact footprint and rugged reliability of its predecessor, the SG400, but has been updated from the inside out. In addition to design improvements such as a single roll-bar, the SG500 is more energy-efficient, prints with higher resolution, and offers WiFi connectivity. This means you’ll enjoy higher quality products and greater ease of use, at a price comparable to the previous model.

*The Chromablast ink system cannot be used to customize hard substrates such as ceramic mugs, aluminum ornaments, etc.*

vibrant-colors

Vibrant Colors: Extremely vibrant colors and stunning resolution at levels that other digital processes simply cannot match. It's the top choice for professional photographers and digital images who demand precision and fine detail in every image.

durable

Superior Durability: Images created with ChromBlast-UHD are permanent! Apparel won't fade - ever - no matter how many times it is washed.

infused-images

Infused Image: Unlike screen printing, print-cut vinyl and direct-to-substrate printing, which are sitting on the surface of the product, the ink is actually infused into the surface itself, and will not crack, peel or wash away.

power-driver

PowerDriver: PowerDriver makes printing beautiful transfers a breeze. Powerful features enable users to easily optimize color output for photographs, vector graphics or spot colors.

New Features Include:

wifi

WIFI Connectivity: Now print wirelessly through your home or office's network. Without the need to connect a computer via a USB cable, printing from multiple computers is easier than ever!

ultra-fine

Ultra Fine Photo Mode: This new print mode allows the SG500 and SG1000 to print at a resolution of 4800 x 1200 dpi. High-resolution images will appear sharper and with more clarity on your substrates.

backlit-display

Backlit Display: The new display is now easier to read thanks to its LED-backlight. 

2-year-warranty

2-Year Warranty: For complete peace of mind, the SG500 and SG1000 are now backed by a 2-year warranty, as well as unlimited tech support for the life of the product.

backward-compatibility

Backward Compatibility: The SG500 is backwards-compatible with SG400 accessories, so if you already own the Optional Bypass Tray for the SG400, you will be able to continue using it. This allows you to print on media up to 51˝ long (1295 mm).

Sawgrass Virtuoso SG500 Complete Sublijet Sublimation Printer Kit

SAWGRASS SG500 2 thumbs up!

I finally took the plunge and bought the SAWGRASS SG500 after having failed with a converted to sublimation printer. I wish I had bought this printer first! It makes doing sublimation so much easier! I did do my homework prior to setting the printer up. I then followed every single step in the video. Viola! No problems! I then took the classes for Sawgrass Creative Studio. Pretty cool as to what you can do. I am not sure if I will subscribe to their monthly subscription as I am just a hobbiest and do not own a small business.

All in all, I recommend this printer to anyone who wants to do sublimation. It is worth the money!
