The Pinckney Super-Tank is the clearest match for buyers seeking a printer supplied with sublimation ink and support for prints up to 13 x 19 inches. The Epson EcoTank ET-15000 and Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7310 offer wide-format printing, but their listed features do not identify them as sublimation printers or include sublimation ink. The Sawgrass SG500 is designed for sublimation but prints narrower projects. Compare the details below and confirm ink requirements before buying.

Pinckney Super-Tank Sublimation Printer
Best for: Buyers who want a wide-format printer specifically listed with sublimation ink. The product information specifies printing up to 13 x 19 inches and includes sublimation ink in black, cyan, magenta, and yellow. Its cartridge-free tank design is intended for refillable ink rather than cartridges.
The printer also includes a scanner and copier, an automatic document feeder, a 250-sheet front tray, and a 2.7-inch color touchscreen. Borderless printing is listed up to 11 x 17 inches, which is smaller than its stated maximum paper size.
Limitation: The supplied details do not say that 13 x 19-inch printing is borderless. Ink may arrive separately, so plan for a possible separate shipment.
Epson EcoTank ET-15000 Wide-Format Printer
Best for: Buyers who need wide-format capability alongside everyday office functions. This all-in-one prints, scans, copies, and faxes, and its listed print resolution reaches 4800 x 2400 dpi. These features make it a flexible option for mixed home-office and creative workloads.
Choose this model if scanning and faxing matter as much as printing. However, the supplied product information does not specify a maximum print size, include sublimation ink, or describe the printer as a sublimation model.
Limitation: Do not assume it is ready for sublimation based on its wide-format label. Verify the intended ink setup and supported media before purchase.
Epson EcoTank Photo ET-8550
Best for: Buyers focused on photos, graphics, and creative projects. The listed feature set highlights Epson’s six-color Claria ET Premium inks, a high-accuracy printhead, and cartridge-free tank printing. It also functions as a printer, scanner, and copier.
The product information emphasizes photo printing and says the printer can produce up to 6,200 color pages, though actual results depend on use. Choose it for general creative output if those photo-oriented features are a priority.
Limitation: The supplied details do not state a 13 x 19-inch maximum or identify the included inks as sublimation inks. It is not the most clearly specified option for this search.
Sawgrass SG500 Sublimation Printer
Best for: Small businesses and home-based makers who want a purpose-built sublimation printer for projects such as shirts, drinkware, signage, and promotional products. The bundle lists four 31 mL SubliJet UHD CMYK inks and TruePix paper. Its compact desktop format is aimed at smaller workspaces.
The stated standard media size is up to 8.5 x 14 inches. A bypass tray can accommodate prints up to 8.5 x 51 inches, making this model useful for some long, narrow designs.
Limitation: It does not meet a 13-inch-wide print requirement; even the bypass-tray width is 8.5 inches. Choose it for narrower sublimation work, not 13 x 19-inch prints.
Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7310
Best for: Buyers who prioritize fast, wide-format general printing. The listed maximum is 13 x 19 inches, and Epson’s PrecisionCore Heat-Free Technology is specified at 25 black and 12 color ISO pages per minute, with fast first-page output.
This is a better fit for wide-format documents and graphics than for a ready-to-use sublimation setup. The product details say the printing system is designed for Epson Genuine Cartridges and warn that non-genuine ink could cause damage not covered by the limited warranty.
Limitation: The listed information does not identify sublimation ink or a sublimation bundle. Avoid choosing it for sublimation unless you confirm an appropriate setup with the manufacturer.
Buying Guide: How to Choose a 13 x 19 Sublimation Printer
Does the printer need to be sold as a sublimation model?
Look for explicit evidence of sublimation use, such as a listed sublimation ink set. Among these five options, Pinckney is the one whose supplied details directly specify sublimation ink and 13 x 19-inch printing. Other wide-format models may require separate research into ink suitability and setup; do not treat “wide format” as proof of sublimation compatibility.
Is 13 x 19-inch printing essential?
Check both maximum media size and borderless size. Pinckney lists printing up to 13 x 19 inches but borderless output only up to 11 x 17 inches. The WorkForce Pro lists 13 x 19-inch printing, but its supplied details do not describe sublimation use. The Sawgrass SG500 is intended for sublimation but is limited to narrower media.
Which additional features matter?
For documents and office use, compare scanning, copying, faxing, paper capacity, and automatic document feeding. For creative work, consider the listed ink type, print size, and whether paper is included. A printer’s speed, resolution, and tank design can help with general printing, but they do not replace confirmation of sublimation support.
