Both printers use the same Sawgrass ink systems and support. The difference is how much you can print at once, and how much volume your shop is producing.
The Sawgrass SG500 is built for shops just getting started with sublimation, or anyone producing smaller items where an 8.5" x 14" print area is enough. It's the printer most home businesses and side-hustle shops start with before scaling up.
Max Print Size: 8.5" x 14"
The Sawgrass SG1000 steps up to a 13" x 19" print area, built for shops producing higher volume or larger-format goods like oversized apparel prints and full-panel hard goods. If you're outgrowing an SG500 or starting at higher volume, this is the model to run.
Max Print Size: 13" x 19"
Purpose-built for sublimation from day one. Engineered to deliver reliable color, easier maintenance, and a smoother production workflow.
Many alternative solutions depend on modified office printers, additional setup, or ongoing maintenance. Sawgrass was designed specifically for sublimation, helping businesses achieve consistent results with less downtime and greater confidence.
Both VersiFlex and SubliJet work seamlessly with the SG500 and SG1000.
Sawgrass's original ink system. SubliJet UHD produces vibrant, permanent colour on polyester fabric and hard sublimation substrates. It becomes part of the material itself, not a coating on top.

Whether using our Sublijet sublimation inks or our newest VersiFlex inks, our proprietary formulation is designed specifically for our Sawgrass printers to ensure that colors are accurately reproduced, and images are sharp and vivid.
