* This is a DIY type item which requires practice and patience to hone your skills. Just like any product or business venture, you can't expect it to make you money out the box - you need to work at it and hone your skills. DTF is not a complicated technology, but it does have a learning curve. There are many resources online (videos, forums, groups) that can provide you with guidance, tips and advice - and we will recommend and provide some of these resources to our customers. The price of this item includes a limited onboarding of approximately 30 mins now includes the DTF Masterclass as well as 30 minutes Q&A as needed ($995+ value)! We will guide you on how to use the printer and software. The DTF Masterclass offers start-to-finish training modules to get you all the way from unboxing all the way to successful prints. If you find that you will need more support, you have an additional 30 minutes private session, and if you need additional 1 on 1 time, you could buy additional 2 hour training sessions ($299), and/or plan to learn on your own through through practice and by using the resources that we we will provide to you. This printer willl accept A4 sheets, A3 sheets and A3+ sheets up to 13" x 19, maximum print area is 13" x 16".

This is a modified Epson printer, modified to work with DTF. It does not come with the original Epson printer warranty, but it does come with the DTFPRO 6 month limited warranty to be free of defects in workmanship and materials.

BENEFITS OVER TONER TRANSFER & DTG TECHNOLOGY:

  • As compared to TONER TRANSFER technology (such as Okidata or Uninet iColor), DTF offers a cheaper startup cost (approx 50% cheaper); cheaper supplies (cheaper ink and cheaper transfer sheets); easier RIP management; better photographic quality prints; and better feel to the hand. DTF also prints to both WHITE or BLACK (or dark) textiles, and is applicable to a variety of textiles including cotton, poly and more.
  • As compared to DTG technology (such as Epson, Ricoh, Brother or other DTG based systems), DTF offers a cheaper startup cost (approx 50% to 75% cheaper) and NO PRETREATMENT required (less cost and less user dependency), although you will require DTF PreTreat Sheets and DTF PreTreat Powder. The print quality and the feel of the printed textiles is very similar to DTG. The substrates that DTF will work on are much wider than DTG (DTG is mainly for cotton, but DTF will work on cotton, poly, 50/50 blends and more).

WARNING: WORK IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA and use Protective Equipment when working with DTF products and processes as fumes may be hazardous. DTF inks and film require a good humidity environment - over 40% humidity is highly recommended to minimize risk of ink clogs and film buckling.
