Thank You for sharing your knowledge and allowing others the opportunity to be Entrepreneurs too.
OMG!!! This is awesome. I just set up my printer and software. The instructions were truly wonderful.. so I printed my first DTF image. too tickled. Even pulling out the roller wasn't too bad, I was more concerned with losing a screw. LOL Thanks so much!!
On my way to the store to pick up my printer
After watching this step by step tutorial
I have so much confidence in myself.
Big Thank You!!

So happy that I stumbled across your video. I’m trying to do as much research on this printer prior to purchasing. Your video is very informative and detailed. I will follow you on social media platforms and purchase your supplies once I’m set up. Thank you for your guidance. Great job!
You are so informative. I almost didn’t buy this printer because we’ve had an industrial printer for a while for our business, but are no longer comfortable with the side effects of the powder and the oven in our home so we just wanted to small desktop one for off projects, and I almost Gave up on finding one until I found this video! You seem so nice and are so helpful and knowledgeable!

#replay. I just watched this video and I must say that this is the first time I’ve seen a video that makes converting a printer for DTF so simple and easy to follow along. I’ve done HTV and sublimation but everybody knows DTF is the way to go. I’m retired and live on a fixed income and the cost of a DTF printer is not in my budget, so l’ve started purchasing transfers but would like to do them myself. With this video and your E book help I think I can do this. Thank you 😊
Aww you're more than welcome
Gday mate thanks for making this video. My wife bought thia printwr and wasnt sure about the conversion but after watching your video i was able to follow the steps very easily and do it for her even with zero prior knowledge. When she got everything sorted after watchong the video she printed her forst design and it was perfect straight away. She also downloaded your ebook which was also very helpful. Thanks again mate

@@highlyflavored I need a service call! How do I do it?!
Thanks for the video. The 8550 will be my next purchase.
You're welcome
Thanks for the info great detail….without all the song and dance…..just straight to the point 💯🥃
😅💯
Thank you so much for a very informative video and easy to understand instructions on how to convert the ET-8550 into a DTF printer. I struggled with removing the rollers, but after rewatching how you did it I was able to finally get them out. The only issue I'm having is when I print my transfer, using the Cadlink trial version, is that at the very bottom of my transfer, I get some slight smearing of the letters. Not sure why, but I'm trying to troubleshoot all possibilities as to why this is happening. Will re-read your Ebook to see if/what I missed that may address this issue.
You can’t print on the last inch and half of transfer
You have to enter your picture and avoid that edge
Appreciate the feedback. However, I left 2.5 inches at the bottom of the film, so I was well above the 1.5 inch space mentioned. Through much trial and error, I found something that worked for me, and allows me to print closer to that 1.5 inch bottom space without the letters smearing. I removed the rear paper feed guide at the back of the printer, waited for the film (A3) to start 'appearing' in the output tray then slid the cardboard under the film so it slides out effortlessly (with the cardboard inserted before printing, my film seemed to get caught by the edge of the cardboard). The film feeds without any problems, and I do not need to use painters tape to help the printer 'grab' the film.
Followed you here frm tik tok and you been helping me with my journey in starting up my own brand appreciate it bro hope all is well 🙏🏾💯
I just made my first purchase
Thanks again!
Thank you for sharing and showing step by step. Very helpful =0)
very good video on explaining everything. clam !!!
During the process of removing the rollers I had a moment of nervousness but when that thang popped out I was like 😂😂😂
Super good instructions!
Great video! I’m definitely wanting to invest in a new printer soon!
Very easy with no issues....
Printed my first ten dtf transfers today and they came out perfect! Cannot thank you enough!!
Yessss!! Love that
@kristenpineda1836 What paper type did you select on the actual printer when you loaded your sheet? The print will ask the size and then the type of paper. He does not show this critical step in the video. I followed these instructions to the t but am getting smudges. Really bummed and regret purchasing this setup.
@@lisanereida mine worked perfect I followed his step by step setup. Cadlink does ask the size and he tells you where to set it up.
You don’t need to choose a type only a size in cadlink . Just make sure you do exactly what he says.
@@kristenpineda1836 Gotcha. I did follow that video to the tee, several time in fact…my printer still ask when loading the paper to tray, despite the settings applied to Cadlink. But thank you for replying. Wish mine worked right away like yours. You’re so lucky.
You are amazing. Thank you your video is very simple
No lie, I watched a 30 minute video and the whole time buddy was showing how to take the rollers out og an Epson 8550. I couldn't take too much more so I kept fast forwarding the video and literally at about 28mins he finally got the rollers out.... After watching the first part of your video I paused and it literally took me less than 5mins to remove the rollers from my 8550. I really appreciate your video it was very clear and simple and most of all it did not take you 30mins to remove the rollers, lol. - THANK YOU!
I appreciate the help bro, you definitely provided good insight.
Thank you!
I came across this video and was very intrigued! All I can say is Wow!!! your step by step instructions with such detail was amazing! I have (2) 8550’s for sub & inkjet, omg if I buy another one my kids are going to freak 😂 (if you read in the news that a 68 yr old Little Italian Nonna from Long Island NY was beaten by her kids you know it was ME! 😂) but I’ve always wanted to do DTF so I guess my Best Buy credit card is coming out of my wallet 😂😂 ummm Thank You I think 😂😂 but definitely Thank you for your fantastic video! 😊
😂😂 You're more than welcome
yep the best video ive seen on youtube easy to follow
Thanks!

I was sooooo nervous 😅 trying to take the rollers out.. I had to replay your video three times before I got the confidence to just tug a little harder. 😅😂
Aloha,
I just purchased the Parallel Package for Mac, Cadlink and Ink from your page on RUclips. Just want to say thank you very much.
Though I’m here because my white ink isn’t printing. I’m not sure what’s going on.
Yo videos helped me a lot thank you
Your tutorial is very good, however I have a Mac computer will it work with this process? You are very patient and teach this process well.
My G thanks for the video. this really helps a lot,easy to follow,Also I got a question this need ICC profile?
Thank you so much for helping me get the Epson 8550 converted. I do have one question I went to PRINT and it’s just bleeding in all the colors are correct and everything but the ink is just bleeding. Any suggestions?
New Sunnis! Thank you for sharing your gift. I am curiously to know how thick does the card board have to be
Not too thick but not flimsy either. Long as the paper has room to come out on top.
My friend, you are a master of your art and you should be awarded and rewarded for the superb content that you put out for free. You are an inspiration to all of us that are just getting started in the craft of printing to material (T-Shirts) and such.
I have just recently downloaded your ebook and after just a brief overview of the document, it is obvious that you have spent a great deal of time and effort producing it. Thank you for all your hard work. I am astonished that you are providing it for free, (not to mention your free video tutorials).
One question that I have, that I have searched the internet for and been unable to find a solid answer to is this, - is there a difference between 'Sublimation Ink' and 'DTF Ink' other than the obvious lack of White ink in Sublimation? Can the inks be used interchangeably?
eg. Can I put 'DTF ink in my Sublimation printer and vice versa?
Nice! I can use the ink for my 2850.
Hey bro thanks for your video I’ve follow all your steps and cannot get the ink to print on the transfer film what should I do
Your video was great! I followed along and set up my 8550. I may have missed something along the way because my pages are printing blank. Can you help?
Great video! I just purchased your ciss would i set that up after adding ink to printer? Or is there a video for that?
Thank you was very helpful
Thank you!
Hey, new to your channel. Really been thinking about getting a DTF printer. Now that I've seen u convert this printer I'm seriously thinking about getting this one. But my question is I've watched u convert this printer but now u have CISs. Will u b doing a video on that as well. Thks again for all your videos n teaching us what u know.
just ordered your bundle and software !!!! wish me luck
How is it going?
Hello, very good video but my question is if the heads do not clog and if we should print daily? Thank you
All I can say is OMG!!! Your video is one of the best out there regarding converting an ET 8550 printer to DTF. After I successfully converted my printer (followed your steps) when I go to print a blue design it comes out purple. Can you please help me with this!!! Do you think it's my ICC profile on the printer? Or do you think it's coming from the profile set in Cadlink?
Thank you!!!
Thank you for this setup video. I love the step by step instructions.
How do I make my colors vibrant? My reds are more orange than red. And my gold turns old yellow. I purchased your dtf paper and change my ink and power and my colors aren’t vibrant. Could you help me out?
Can you do a video on what the printer settings have to be on a iMac computer
Yo, thank you for all your shared knowledge. I do have a question, my printer is not printing the white layer on top, wht should i do?
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I just subscribed. 💜💜 I have this printer still in the box. Someone said it’s no good because you have to shake the white ink inside the cartridge after every 80 prints. You can’t remove the cartridge so how do I make sure my ink is good…?
Grab my ebook in description to help with maintenance
Love the video. It was a perfect step by step on how to convert. I got to the end of your video about printing multiple images, but when I print it only prints a portion of each picture is there another step that I'm missing?
Use tape and move images to the top of page
Hello! I've recently watched this video and you did an amazing job at showing me step by step! I have one issue though. When I go to colour layer then processing options on digital factory its not letting me change the "underbase options" Only the bottom half of that screen is highlighted. What can I do. I did go ahead and just print an image without changing those options and my whole print just came out in all white. What should I do?
Hey thanks for the tutorial! Have you ever faced the paper feeding issues? Thinking if I should get the PE PW censor bypass module or not. Please let me know your advice. Thank you in advance!
Awesome video!! I know it's me , obviously but nothing is printing. I followed all the steps. Everything is working fine it's just printing blank
Same here. Have you figured out how to fix this issue? It acts like it's printing but nothing comes out. I just set mine up today
I follow through soon,.thnxx
No problem
thanks so much for the video, my printer is on its way, what size is the cardboard piece for the printer.
Thanks
Thank you ordering printer today
