Thank you for the video. But, you confused me with the set up on the ink channel. I put my ink as follow in the tank: BWCYMW and I used the same setting in Acrorip. The Black and White were flip- So I had to set up ink channels in Acrorip as follow: WBCYMW. This is working perfect! I think I read in the comments someone was confused as well. I hope this message helps anyone who made the same mistake I made. Thanks!
I just got an 8550 and this series is the best i have come across. Thanks for the info. I am going to watch more of your videos but do you currently run the same settings as posted here? Also I have an external white tank when setting up the ink will i have to get a chip resetter?
Hi Hangry, I'm lowkey one of those ghost students that have been learning so much from your page. I can't count the number of times I replay your videos just to get things running. Also, I love how practical your posts are, most are well detailed even though some can be lengthy at times :) But, it's still worth every second. So, I have finally been able to setup my Et-8550 Printer (Got this printer due to the recommendation on one of your posts). I got everything ready and set for DTF printing, the last step was purchasing the Acrorip software (It's kinda expensive though, for a software). Now, this is my problem... Acrorip does not print on my PC, it gives the paper-feeder error whenever I initiate a print. It sends the command but the printer never picks up the transfer film. At first, I thought it was the feeder, I looked up every possible suggestion on youtube and tried different approaches but to no avail. Weird thing is, I am able to print normally on both phone and windows using the transfer film, but it never works with Acrorip. This has frustrated me for the past 2 days and I am just about to throw in the towel so before that, I thought it best to post my experience, I'll appreciate any help. It's so frustrating because I had to get a new windows pc since Acrorip does not work on my Mac. Before that, I purchased the Parallels desktop software to run Acrorip but unfortunately the image wasn't loading despite trying multiple file-types.
Have you experience that you open images in the rip and they come out different color as the original one? If so how did you solve it if you dont mind, thank you
HELP!!!!! Hey Bro, you have been great help. I do have a question, My Acrorip didn't include the ET-8550 as a selection in the printer drop down. What am i missing?
Hi…My colored image and my white printed separately. I checked both boxes in the print setting as you stated in the video. Any idea of what may be causing this?
I have videos on the channel for solutions on this, if you still need help you can schedule a video call on my website. www.hangrymuscle.com/products/dtf-technical-support-for-epson-et-8550-xp-15000-acrorip-50-hour
Your videos are so much help ❤ I currently can’t find anything that explains the issue I’m having so I’m hoping maybe you can help… my image is printing mirrored just fine but the white behind it isn’t printing mirrored which is ruining the image all together, have you ever seen this happen? Am I doing something wrong? 😅
Do I have to buy the wide format program to print 13x19 or can I buy the regular program. ? And do u suggest acrorip or cadlink. I cant figure out what the difference is as im brand new to dtf and these rip programs
I need help with where to put the white ink, Do i Put white ink in Photo black and grey cartridge? And then what are the settings on AcroRip again? Please and thank you much appreciated. All your videos help a bunch.
I put White in the Black & Grey Channels. Black in the photo black channel. Left to Right it should be White, Black, Cyan,Yellow, Magenta, White for your inks. In Acrorip set the Channels to KWCYMW. Appreciate you watching! 🙏💪
Thanks alot for the videos, they are really helpful! I was wondering if you could help me out, I am using 10.3, set up like your set up and my white is yellow, any ideas what I missed? thanks again for all of your help!
@@HangryMuscle Thank you so much for the reply, my current Acrorip settings are BWCYMW and the tanks are WBCYMW. When I switch off the first tank in Acrorip it works great but when I enable both white tanks in Acrorip I get a yellow base. Is there another reason I might be getting a yellow base? Would upgrading to 10.5 make a difference? Thanks again you're help is really appreciated!
I managed to have version 10.5 but when I launch the print it gives me an error and when I launch a print on acrorip but the color without the white it prints normal
Hi Great Video. I followed all your steps for the step up, but my white layer is printing black ink. I don’t know why. Do you have any idea? I have all my ink channels setup like yours. I don’t know what’s happening
My whites keep clogging after one or two prints. Maybe just an hour or two sitting. I'm just getting streaks of white not solid. Power cleaning only works for one or two prints. Please help!!
I'm using these exact settings and it keeps giving me a print command error white ink empty, it is not empty. I used a previous video that told me to put the ink in as WWCYMK so that's what I did. how do I fix it? I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software and same thing. Something is wrong some where.
I did every step you did and my printer just keeps printing blank pages? 😔 I have been at it all day trying to research why this happening do you have any idea? It's connected to my printer I'm able to do head cleanings from there so there's communication from the software to the printer.. just when I print an image it says printing and then just feeds the paper through slowly with nothing printed..
Hi, how's your nozzle check look, any ink? If nozzle check is fine, then it could probably the printer width sensor is not detecting the film in Acrorip. You can put tape on the back of the film to make it more visible. Here's how I do mine. ruclips.net/video/CGNoUmaiF7g/видео.html
@@HangryMuscle I did that Also and I even tried a sublimation paper to see if it works and it still feeds out a blank page.. the nozzle check looks good from the printer setting however, when I run it through the software it also prints a blank page.. im not sure what's happening I was using cadlink trial and it worked so good I wish I would have used it before I bought this one, I would have stuck with it instead 😅
@@diazwifeyy8316 Where did you put the tape on the film? It needs to be exactly where the design starts printing. usually about 1.5 inches down on the film.
