G6070 Speed: Resolution & Color Effects

Print speed on the G6070 drops as resolution increases because higher dpi requires more ink passes over the film. At 720 dpi standard production mode with 6 passes, the single PrecisionCore printhead delivers 4-5 linear meters per hour on 24" film. Switch to 1440 dpi for detailed graphics, and 8 passes slow it to 2-3 m/h—real users report this as the 'snail' effect from sequential CMYK+White layering.

Color modes impact speed through white ink processing; full DTF CMYK+White circulation takes 15-25% longer than CMYK-only proofs. The built-in white circulation mixes pigment without waste, but it pauses between layers on the single head. We've researched and seen similar setups and found skipping white for color tests saves 1-2 m/h, but full transfers demand it for opacity.

The G6070 displays real-time throughput in m/h on its touchscreen, so monitor nozzle verification to avoid clogs slowing jobs further. Fiery Digital Factory profiles optimize for films, with gang sheets nesting to maximize width up to 35". For side hustles, stick to 720 dpi 6-pass at 315°F press for 100 shirts/hour post-print.

Optimize by selecting profiles in Epson software: draft 720 dpi hits 5+ m/h for bulk, while 1200x600 max res suits photorealism at half speed. Environment matters—20-25°C and 40-60% humidity keeps speeds consistent without extra cleans. Transfer Academy tests show 8-pass yields sharper edges on polyester but halves output versus your Audley 6 m/h.
