I have been researching DTF printers for a long time and one of the main reasons I haven't pulled the trigger is because of the white ink circulation. Very impressed to see that it has that built in as well as the printhead Auto cleaner. I can't wait to see your tutorial of the DTF wood project!
That’s how I felt at first too with the worry about the maintenance! But this one is super easy! I’m obsessed with the wood projects! One press on wood makes it smooth- second quick press makes it look like a canvas painting! 😍
Costs around $1.80 to print a 13 x 16 inch transfer per their website. That’s significantly cheaper than what I spend for my gang sheets! Pretty impressive at its price point. Excited to hear an update later on. Thanks!
SO CLOSE... I'm$440 away from being able to get it😬😬😮💨😁😆😆 So excited!!! But for the black Friday sale its not giving me 100 off with your code only $10!! ☹️ Thanks again for your videos! You're awesome🎉
I want one so bad! I’m so happy that they sent you a free one! That’s awesome! How much is the ink ? I’m trying to figure out if I’m going to convert a printer into DTF or just buy a DTF printer. Thanks !
Hello Sallie, I just bought the DTF printer in your video :) I'm a bit confused still about Maintenace though. How do you keep your Maintenace on yours and can you do a video on this? Thank you in advanced!
I'm sure you will, but you should do a video on the time it takes for the whole process of 1 t shirt. Apart from printing I estimated around 5 Minutes in your process. And you said to another commenter prints can be from 4-15 minutes on top of that. Would love to see the time n materials n ink n profit cost per shirt on average. I'm sure it'll take a minute, but I'm assuming about $10 profit on each shirt at $25 a shirt. On the low end I'm assuming that'll be about $30hr. We shall see
esalam alikoum gurl i loved the video and i was more impressed by how you choose and how on point your words are, would you make a video and tell us about your journey with that ?!
I've been looking at this printer for several months now. I think I'm gonna take the plunge & get it! 😊 Also if you don't mind my asking, where did you get that floral image from. It's really cute.
Hi ! I've been debating about DTF machines and which to get. How are the fumes with this machine ? Also, approximately how long does it take to make one piece? Thank you!
Is there any daily maintenance? Do you have to buy or get a shaker for the white ink? How much does it cost for you to produce a large 11x11? And how long does it take to print 11x11? Please lmk I’m trying to choose between this and another
The maintenance is super easy. The reason I didn’t buy a printer to begin with is because I was worried about the maintenance. They have a tutorial on their website and it’s just some basic wiping things down and all. Super simple. You do not have to buy anything extra. It has all you need and it has white ink circulation system set up in the printer. I haven’t done enough prints to estimate the cost per print- I do know I’ve printed a ton and it hasn’t even made a dent in the ink or paper roll. The length of time I’ve found varies depending on how detailed your design is. Some designs print in like 4 mins- some take longer like 15! They have more info on their website on how many inches per hour and all! 😊
I am so particular with the finish of the DTF transfers. The one's that I have ordered, have this sheen to it and I hate it. But looking at the design of your transfers, I am blown away. Can you confirm that the designs have a matte finish? This would be a game changer for me because I would be able to print my own instead of ordering them online.
I use levoit in our house and love them! Got mine on Amazon. You can get different filters for different environments. They have toxin ones, pet filters, regular, etc.
I am getting ready to try and do AD. T FI pulled 4 different things, J pegs SV g's to try and create this, not sure how it's going to look on a shirt. Any advice would be alphone.. this is for use at work, not for sale, I can dm you if you would like to see image.
If you cure them after the powder, you can keep them stored no problem. Just want to cure the image with the adhesive powder or it can be easy to smear the ink.
I have been on the fence about making a DTF purchase due to cost and maintenance. Thanks for doing this video. I completely trust what you say and what you use as far as products. The only thing I have also thought about is exposure to toxic chemicals. I believe they have an extra purifier to purchase but I also need a well ventilated area so I would have to leave a window open. What are you using to avoid toxins?
@@SimplySallie awesome thank you. Just wanna say over 2 years ago I started seeing your videos. I wanted to do signs and ended up in Sublimation, DTF, and embroidery and that’s where my small business Make It Mama was birthed. It will be 3 years now and I’m still pushing!
With the maintenance of this printer and refilling of ink with regular printing, would you say it saves money vs ordering DTF transfer gang sheets? Thanks for the video! Love your vids
I do believe this would be cheaper than ordering transfers and gang sheets. I will know for sure the exact amount spent once I get through a whole roll and how many prints and sizes I can get from each. I’m keeping track of it! Obviously the initial investment is more but I believe it would pay off if someone was planning on doing this as a business for sure!
@Simply Sallie Honest opinion on this, how long have you had it and is it worth it? I just purchased one. Hopefully I didn’t make a mistake. Please respond.
@@hailblue221 It’s harmless. I’ve been doing DTF for over a year now & I am fine. I’m apart of many DTF groups on fb & no one has ever said they’ve gotten sick from it
Totally get it and you are able to choose that for yourself! From what I’ve noticed is most issues can be due to improper maintenance, settings, not using their brand ink, and file issues. From what I’ve seen, if issues occur procolored seems to handle them well! But my machine has been doing so far so good 👍
Sallie..you really should be wearing gloves and work with that powder in a well ventilated area; the white powder is TOXIC and a lot of people are getting sick. Ive seen many a RUclipsr wearing full hazmat suits while working with the white powder. Please take appropriate measure to protect you and your family.
@@simplytrish90The fact that you and many others are doing it incorrectly does not mean everyone else should... In literally 30 seconds of research on Google I found no less than seven pages that said ventilation and proper protection are extremely important when working with DTF.. but you do you.
@@Karenm1969 I appreciate your concern! Please know that if you purchase these powders and materials from a reputable brand and use as directed, it is safe! These are non toxic. I do keep my craft room well ventilated by cracking windows as well as use air purifiers in the room and wash my hands well after use! ❤️
@@missychan63 I’m with you on that! It’s too toxic to use in a craft room - I’ve watched Allen Wades’ video and he is in a huge warehouse and he wears a full suit when working with DTF. I’ll just order my DTF prints from someone else…Procolored has such mixed reviews on their machines; it’s not worth the gamble.
@@missychan63 we are not doing it incorrectly. I’m apart of a lot of DTF & Sublimation groups. When a new comer asks what they need to do DTF, no one says gloves or a hazmat suit. So therefore, Sally is doing it the correct way, same for the rest of us.
Have you looked videos on the maintenance of this printer? It’s very simple to me. Wiping things down, clean the waste ink, keeping it oiled. If you plan on going on vacation or not printing often change to the moisture retaining cartridges. Pretty easy! It has the automatic white ink circulation and print head cleaning so that is taken care of.
Regardless of automatic circulation, you still have to mix a tank of white color and even other colors, but it's all worth it if you print/sell on a daily basis
I get it- but if you know anything about me, I absolutely don’t work with brands if the quality and reliability of a machine isn’t good. I’ve turned down many many many brands through the years and don’t work with people often. At least in my opinion so far, I’m satisfied with this machine. I truly care more about my audience and their trust of me.
Please don't get this printer, got mine and it dumps white ink everywhere, I have wasted more ink and film then I printed. I am sending mine back to the company.
@@SimplySallie I am not blaming you for the you tube review by all means, yes, this one was defective from day one! The company afford me $200.00 refund to not send the printer back to them for a refund. Two hundred dollar isn't no comparison vs the 4,000 I paid for a defective printer, now that price was a package deal not just the printer. I have read great reviews and the bad reviews. It is about half and half between the good and bad. 50% chance that you will get a good printer. I did the Maintenace at least twice every day, more Maintenace I did the worst it got. I am only writing this so other can beware they do come with problems with some of them.

Hi, thanks for the video you shared. May I ask what heat press you use or recommend? Thanks
Hello Sallie, I just bought the DTF printer in your video :) I'm a bit confused still about Maintenace though. How do you keep your Maintenace on yours and can you do a video on this? Thank you in advanced!

Can you use Adobe or Canva stock images to be part of your own design and how do you put glitter in the writing?
I was thinking the same thing I love all the various styles you get with using vinyl- particularly the beautiful glitter options
wow this is amazing! thank you for sharing!! I will purchase mine asap! Im launching my clothing brand and this will def be amazing.

Hi ! I've been debating about DTF machines and which to get. How are the fumes with this machine ? Also, approximately how long does it take to make one piece? Thank you!
Sallie,
Is this the same process (minus the heat press) that is used for glass cup dtf transfers?
How long does it take from the moment you start printing the design until you are finished with it and ready to be pressed?
Whats the with it can print?
Please give us a review in 4 months, in how you feel about printer and if any issues arose.
Which one exactly is this I looked on the website bt there's so many diff ones
Is there any daily maintenance? Do you have to buy or get a shaker for the white ink? How much does it cost for you to produce a large 11x11? And how long does it take to print 11x11? Please lmk I’m trying to choose between this and another

Do you press the print twice?
I do. Still has a bit of a sheen to it. @farmhouselovingmama1996
@@irish6122I do my second press with a piece of butcher paper on top and it helps minimize the shine.
@itsbomber8390 thank you for the tip. I will definitely try this. ✌️
Is this the newest version gen 2, because my printer does not do automatic head cleaning, only has the white ink pump stir thingy
What are your ink settings on?
Sallie can you recommend a good Air purifier for a craft room please?
I use levoit in our house and love them! Got mine on Amazon. You can get different filters for different environments. They have toxin ones, pet filters, regular, etc.
Whats the paper sheet you used on heatpress?
It’s a teflon sheet! You can get them on Amazon!

Wow I was thinking DTF just need print and put in the press , I don’t know need to put in oven
Can you print to film and save your prints without baking immediately?
Yes you can store them! 😊
If you cure them after the powder, you can keep them stored no problem.

That would be a UV DTF printer. I know procolored has those on their website as well!
Hi I was wondering what should I do if my images are coming out pixelated?
Are you scaling up image files like jpg or png in the software?
Scaling them up can pixelate them.
