Very inormative, I have an issue, I found while printing its increasing the contrast value to 100% so printing coming bit dark, this I checked when I apply the contrast in photoshop. So Can you share any solution
Hi sir, I noticed that you didn’t remove the roller unit of your printer, I’ve watched other tutorial videos about converting to dtf printer, they removed it. What did you do differently for printed side not to touch the rollers?
Do you know what could be the cause of white ink dissapearing halfway throughout an A3 sheet? It starts off good, 100% white, and then fades away to 0% white. We have tried changing the dumpers, applying the cleaning solution, shaking up the mixer... Do you have any ideas?
What about the ink lines? Also check there is no white ink buildup at the bottom of the ink tank that might be affecting the ink flow. If it's not the ink flow issue, you may need a new printhead.
@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 Thank you very much for the quick response. We have tried shaking up the ink tank, so we figured there could be no build up at the bottom. We will have to check again. We are not sure what you mean about the ink lines? If you mean if lines are visible, then the answer is no (while the white doesn't start dissapearing). After it starts fading away lines start to become more and more visible.
@@MincomDoo check the tubes where the ink travels through. I had this issue and saw that there was a clump of dried ink in the tube. Luckily i was able to get it out with some solid copper from electrical wire :D
I believe this is just the flim not being seen I have the same issue some times it wouldn't print any ink on the sheet and I couldn't understand why or sometimes it would print some. So I just added some tape at the bottom of the flim where the printer catches the paper and now it works everytime not sure why it does that when it's feeding the dtf flim
Hi, I am facing a very strange issue. First I was using the Ink Circulation system but always have some issues. Today I removed the ink circulation system, & connect the pipe directly with ink tank. No matter how many head clean or power clean I do. After the first print, my second print has a very thing transparent white layer. Its like printer not sucking white ink. But white ink is full loaded in damper. I think When I do head or Power clean. First print is fine because of the white Ink left in head. Seems its not using/sucking white ink from damper. Now what should I do I changed Ink Cirulation to direct because of this issue Now I am very tired of these things. ANy suggestion?
@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 it won’t print a nozzle check. I finally got it to print white but Now it’s saying “flatbed printer printing software (for white ink) has stopped working”. What’s that mean
Hello sir, White ink is not getting printed over colored one.. what can be the reason ? when I give nozzel check command to my printer all nozzles of white is printing in that case.
Confused with the process? I understand the heated film tray drys the ink, do you not need to cover the ink with the DTF powder before the ink drys? and then heat to dry? What stage do you cover the ink with powder?
It dries it enough to stop it from flowing. It does not dry it completely. The ink stays pretty sticky still for the powder application. The temperature is also adjustible so you can set it whatever temperature works best for you.
Hi, I’m facing a problem with white ink. In Nozzle check the white ink is coming sort of blue. I don’t understand whats wrong. Can you suggest any solution. Thanks in advance 🙏
Sometimes after you run a cleaning cycle, colours can look a little different on a nozzle check because the printhead may have some residual ink on the surface still. Try printing a small print. If the white remains bluish, clean the whole thing out, clean the lines, flash the print head, clean the dampers, clean under the dampers, clean the ink tanks and make sure your white ink that's in the tank is still white.
It does not matter if you are using ekrip because you can pick any channel in any order. But it's probably best to put CMYK into CMYK and the other 2 white.
Hello, could you maybe help me ?? I have a problem with my printer, the two ON / OFF and Ink lights are on. I filled up the inks, put the cushion back on and vacuumed off the rest and also cleaned the print head. Unfortunately the printer doesn't work. If I press the button with ink for three seconds, the on / off button lights up and after two hours nothing happens. I would be happy if you could help me further. Best wishes
Hello its great finding your channel as I am just about to buy some items from there. One the inks that you sell for DTF - are they the same as DTG inks - i.e. pigment inks? I dont know if to buy your inks or the one from resolute. I am not sure which is better. Also the print material I am thinking whether to buy the sheets or the roll. Thanks
Hello. These are all water based pigment inks. We sell the same ink that we use ourselves for our own printing business. I believe we offer the best quality and value combination. You can always buy a small sample and compare our inks to resolute. It's best to buy roll for roll printers and sheets for desktop DTF printers.

Make sure the ink tank is unlocked. If you are using refillable ink cartridges, make sure they are unplugged. Give it a couple of automatic ink cleaning cycles. Rule out rip issues by printing a bit of text from word.
Hi, I'm having issue. My prints come out great but when I heat press it, it comes out alot darker. How do I keep the print quality the same on the t shirt?
DTF transfers are never 100% opaque. All you can really do is make sure you are printing a strong thick layer of white with well mixed quality white ink. There are workarounds that involve mixing in some black powder but those are not perfect either.
@@user-qi2gq6ef3w Increase white to 100% in acrorip. I assume you have already done that. 8 colour printers can apply the most white because they have 4 white channels.
I'v got this problem, but I don't really know how to fix it. My white designs start going pale like half way through printing and color designs have very pale underlayer (something like on ur video). When i take syringe to clean it, the ink does not want to go smoothly, preasure kinda sucks it back. I get to get the ink in the syringe eventually but i dont think thats okay. Do you know what should I do?
oh dude, so happy to see you have same problem like me! i'm still fighting my way, but so far what i have found: try to move the ink tank higher then the dampers level, this will prevent the gravity suction of inks to lower level container.
@@HeinerRadau thx for reply. I don't think i can put the syringe any further.. and when i do it the other way, the air goes through and i Can hear it wobble in the ink tank, but when it comes to sucking ink out, the preasure won't allow..
@@leooadi5311 if air goes in but no liquid comes out, it sounds like the Ventile is working properly then, but maybe your syringe is too thick to unlock the valve? There is a spring inside that pushes a hard bolt against the rubber, now in order to put ink into the damper this bolt has to be pushed down. I wish we could post photos in the comments, it would be much more helpful for everybody. Anyway, just Use a thinner syringe.
Tank, ink lines and dampers act as one interconnected system. Pigment wants to settle at the bottom of the ink tank and filler wants to raise to the highest point. Usually the top of your ink lines. Shaking the top part does not make it mix with the bottom part. Over time, you will end up printing with a higher concentration of glycirine. Which means that clogging will get worse. There are a few easy experiments that anyone can do to test this. But if shaking works for you, then great! Stick to what's best for you.
@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 thanks for your detailed answer. i just started printing about a week ago, so i will let you know when the shaking technique shows its limits!
@@HeinerRadau wow you started working like a week ago and you have to shake it every time ? what printer do you use please ? and can you update me of the quality when you press it on the tee shirts ?
@@leepisin8211 the issues im facing with white toner seem far more complicated then what i'm finding answers so far.. i'm using epson l1800. once you got the white ink opaque like the author of this video after ink circulation, the results for the finished tshirt are impressive, but i still didnt find the solution. my white inks just keep clogging, no matter how often i circulate the inks. i believe the lack of head cleaning in the first 3 weeks os operating in vietnamese weather conditions ( between 27-37°C) makes the white ink clog even faster. also my white ink separates much stronger and way faster then in this video. ill make a video on it, as soon as i found a solution.

@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 I filled white ink in external tank and connected in middle 2 dumpers. but black ink present in tank if printer is idle some time.
Most people print at 720 x 1440. Sometimes 1440 x 1440 for prints that require better quality. I don't know anyone who prints at 5760 x 1440. It will probably take an hour to print. Something like P600 is better and faster but you should be getting photo quality results at 1440 x 1440.

Looks like you are applying way too much ink. Maybe dial down ink amount in acrorip settings. 20% CMYK 80% white. Also, in newer versions of acrorip there is a boost setting, that can cause this too.
