Anker’s new printer works directly on fabrics
Anker's eufyMake brand has unveiled a new "personal fabric printer" that lets users apply custom photos or designs directly onto clothing and other soft goods, expanding the company's earlier UV printer line beyond hard surfaces like wood and metal. The device is aimed at consumers and small businesses wanting to personalise items such as T-shirts, jeans, bags and hats without owning multiple separate machines, and is due to launch in spring 2027.
The printer supports both direct-to-garment printing, which applies images straight onto breathable fabrics, and direct-to-film printing, where designs are transferred via a heat press onto a broader range of materials. It can combine both methods on a single item, reproduces colours accurately on light and dark fabrics, and can add colour to embroidered designs when paired with a cheaper single-colour embroidery machine, potentially avoiding the need for costlier multicolour embroiderers. Anker has not yet confirmed an official product name or pricing.
