Anker’s new printer works directly on fabrics

Anker's eufyMake brand is developing a personal fabric printer capable of direct-to-garment and direct-to-film printing. The machine aims to simplify custom apparel creation by allowing users to apply designs to various fabrics and even colorize embroidered patterns.
Why it matters
This technology could democratize custom apparel production for hobbyists and small businesses by reducing the need for multiple specialized industrial machines.
After introducing a consumer-friendly UV printer last year capable of printing designs directly on materials like wood, metal, glass, and acrylic, Anker’s eufyMake brand is introducing a new machine that can print directly on fabrics. With an expected launch sometime in the spring of 2027, Anker hasn’t yet revealed an official name for the new machine, but its “personal fabric printer” will offer multiple ways to put photos or custom designs onto T-shirts, jeans, bags, and hats.
