This was beautiful. I am beginning to change my mind on the DTF! My only concern is in Cricut, you can't cut bigger. I would definitely have to use my Cameo for this! Thank you so much for this video.
Hi Patrice....just curious, why do you turn the bleed off? Doesn't the bleed help you get a more accurate cut (like prevent the white border that is sometimes left behind).
Love your channel. As beginners in this world of print, we would still be scratching our heads looking at each other like, What have we done? Fortunately we are learning and we looking to make our projects easier. My question is, to use the Epson ET 8550 or the ET15000, do we need extra software to run either of these two printers with eco solvent or dtv after converting them?
Hey how are you doing? I absolutely love your videos. I had a question? Do you need eco solvent vinyl or you can use printable heat transfer vinyl? Thank you
I hope you can update us on printer clogging and maintenance. I saw a RUclips video about a water based eco solvent converted ink that made her printer unusable. Then the video disappeared. Please update us IF it is really worth taking the risk.Thanks.
Hello beautiful I’m waiting on my ink to convert mines I have everything ready. Can’t wait to to start my conversion. Next video we would like to see your collections of printers. I do believe you have them all.
Love the video and wanted to ask, is your ET15000 still working great qifh the eco solvent in it? Also would you rather do the eco solvent with the et15000 or would converting an Epson 8550 to DTF be better?
Hello Patrice I found your channel today and fell in love with your videos ( those I already watched) I'd like to know if I can make stickers with this printer would I have to use a different material ? I think so right. Have you ever done any stickers with this printer? Thank you for your time ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much❤ 4this video I was browsing looking 4info about this printer & after 1hr your video appears and let me tell you🫣 you just gave me a good class ♥️♥️♥️ God bless you 4this 😊😊 #newfollower
Hi Patrice! I just purchased my new Epson printer but haven’t received it yet. Fingers crossed it comes in the next few days! But I wanted to let you know about another video I watched from another Cricut user and she imported the same print & cut image but as the the cut file. It was a hack on how to get around the smaller print and cut. You would have to print the image outside of design space but it’s worth a try! I know I’m going to try it with just regular inkjet printable vinyl to see if I can get it to work!! :)
@@karatohongkongcat yess!! This is the one I watched: ruclips.net/video/liK2Z54A_rU/видео.html This is using a full 8.5 x 11 page but you can still use this technique for 11x17
So I have the refillable cartridges, if I were to buy other ones and use the eco solvent ink in the new cartridges could I switch back and forth? Or would you not recommend that?
Hi! Great video, only question is the printing on the vinyl. Is the vinyl transparent on the vinyl where you could apply to a tumbler and it won’t be seen? Is this something like clear car decals?
Hey there love your video but quick question does this epson 15000 printer clog or need cleaning like a standard eco solvent printer does? With a standard eco solvent printer you have to clean the capping station and around the print head..what’s the cleaning process with the 15000 to prevent ink drying clogs? Thanks
Hello thank you for this video , question do I have to get a separate printer for this.i already have a sublimation printer., or can I use it both in one printer.
I'm very new to all of this. Is it OK to assume that an ecotank printer 2800 does the same as the 15000? I'm also new to cricut. Bought it like 2 years ago. But it's been collecting dust. And I really want to do something w it. I'm a new subscriber and already love your channel! TIA
@@CraftableThings correct me if I'm wrong but you're using sublimination ink? I saw sublimation ink and eco solvent, so eco solvent should be okay for regular glossy paper do you think?
@@dandee28 the title of the video is Eco-solvent. I go through the steps of installing eco-solvent ink into the printer. It's all in the video. There is no sublimation used at all.
Hello , please help me !!! I live in Germany and i bought everything you have in this video but my printer doesn’t have the papertype presentation mat. It has only Epson matt and the color on the vinyl is coming out like greasy. I don’t know what to do anymore i bought really everythingplease help me
Can you add eco solvent ink in all Epson EcoTank printers? Also, this ink it last longer on a t-shirt than the ink that comes with your Epson printer? Thank you!
@Oscar Hernandez update. I started having major issues and my print head went out. Then my printer completely died. The eco solvent only lasted me about 4 good months. I wouldn’t recommend.
I bought the epson 15000 but it’s not vibrant like yours . I followed your steps but it’s still kind of dull. The black it not as dark as yours. What can I do to make the colors vivid. This ríñete was not cheap. Please help a sister here God bless
Hey Ady! What settings are you using when printing? Make sure to download all of the prints drivers. Initially when you install the printer only the basic drivers are downloaded.
Hi Patrice, another great video as usual. I wanted to order the solvent ink but when I clicked on the link, the seller does not have any contact information on their web page. It only allows one to sign up for email notifications. The ink description states that orders may ship between the 1-30 but doesn’t state which month they are referring to.
@@DempsDesigns hi thanks for responding. Yes the link works perfectly but I had questions about the description on the ink webpage and was requesting clarity about the estimated shipping- it only says 1st-30th but doesn’t specify the month it may ship.

My cyan is clogged and won't print....do you have any suggestions on how I can get the clog out? I have done multiple cleanings along with the power clean...it fixed the magenta and yellow, but the cyan is very stubborn...I'd appreciate any help!
Please help me I bought eco solvent ink and new epson 15000 everything works on printable vinyl also the images looks amazing and than I had heat transfer vinyl and when I printed it it just was very greasy , or like very small air bubbles but It was not siser colorprint easy it was just heat transfer vinyl so is it maybe because of this? Or what do you think? Please help
Benim için pahalı bir tecrübe oldu. Tavsiye etmiyorum. Dönüşüm sonrasında sadece özel etiketlere baskı yapabilirsiniz. Ve bu etiketler oldukça pahalı. Bunun yerine Roland BN 2 almaya karar verdim.
since you did not get a reply, I will answer your question. The answer is NO, eco solvent ink is solvent based and will damage your printer. Pigment ink is water based ink but it is waterproof and fades slower than dye ink when used on good vinyl paper. There's a new "Water" based eco solvent that came out and this video is all about that. I am also curious the maintenace involved on this converted inkjet printer. I saw one YT video that had a good review of it BUT after a few months, her printer is unusable.
@@user-sf9mh1ms4q i know that eco solvent also requires a heating element to dry the ink as it prints. what about this one she's using? no heat required?

Very informative, thank you for sharing! Are you required to perform regular maintenance on your printer? Does eco-solvent separate like DTF ink?
What printer do you recommend to start with DTF? et-15000 or et 8550?
what will be better to start?
Do you feel that this is more cost effective for people just starting out versus DTF?
I purchased my ET-15000 directly from Dell, and it was brand new. At the time, they were the only ones who still had them in stock.
Dell sells an Epson brand product??

Hi Krissy!
This video will walk you through setup. Just note the you must print daily as this ink easily clogs.
Is this water based ink Eco solvent? I thought the water based eco solvent ink does not smell. How is it holding up, any clogging to date?
It smells. It’s water based. It’s still working fine…I’ve had to do several print head cleanings.
Mine is only printing yellow I’m stressed when I was sick I didn’t print anything for two weeks
start doing printhead cleanings...you might have to do a few before you see the ink.
