Hi Melissa, I love your videos thank you for explaining everything so nicely I just purchase my prestige A3 and my white background is not dark enough I’ve tried to mess with settings but can’t find anything.
Hey Melissa!!! Love you all you videos, and I've watched lots of them. Can you make a video of the differences Prestige a3+R vs the Procolored l1800.. Which is better? Because the prices are very different. Thank you!
Does anyone know if the roll version will do just short runs - for example, if I need a 12x4” logo, will it just use that much of the roll? I assume it does, and that seems like a great cost savings vs using whole sheets if you don’t need to.
I love them all for different reasons! So it really depends on what YOU need. I have a comparison guide here: www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/melissas-fleet-of-printers-for.html
Hello, I read somewhere that the white ink expires 3 months after opening. So does that mean that the ink that was put in the printer needs to be replaced as well every 3 months if you don't use it all within that time frame?
Hi there! Yes, there is a hand, I suggest using a T Seal finishing sheet for a softer feel. Check out all our info about it here: www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/everything-to-know-about-dtf-and.html
I love your videos. I asked this once but I am so tore up on what to do. I have a new epson 15000 printer that I either want to convert to sublimation or DTF. I had to have get a wide print no matter which way I went. Most of my orders are xl and bigger. I love sublimation so when I can on even cotton if light color I use the dtf film and powder. However, everyone wants darker material and the only way to do that is easysubli unless I go to DTF. What does DTF feel like? Is easysubli so expensive that its not worth it? Should I do the epson 15000 as a sublimation and then buy the prestige A3+? Any ideas from anyone is greatly appreciated.
@Lisa Nicholson (Crafty Smudge) not sure what I am doing wrong. I filled in the ink. Connected it to my computer. And it first started flashing red lights. I restarted it about 3 times and then the green light was solid. I then wanted to print an image and all it did was flash the red lights again and wouldn't grab the film. Idk, I am going to try again.

Hi Melissa, I love your videos thank you for explaining everything so nicely I just purchase my prestige A3 and my white background is not dark enough I’ve tried to mess with settings but can’t find anything.
There's a video here on how to increase the white ink www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/prestige-a3-and-a3-r-dtf-printer.html
What lubricant, or grease, would you recommend I use for the metal rail for the R version?

Thank you!
I don't have the other printer you referred so I won't be able to do a comparison unfortunately.

Is the Roland bn 20 a must buy ?

What’s the largest size the curing oven will hold?
Hey there! 16"x20" check out the supplies list here with additional information! www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/everything-to-know-about-dtf-and.html

The DTF prints how’s the feel? Does it compare to a DTG feel or a screen print feel? Please let me know thinking bout purchasing a printer. Thanks

Can this printer be a uv printer too ?
Hey there, this is only DTF.
How’s the maintenance if u don’t use it everyday would it be a problem.
All DTF printers require more maintenance than most other printers due to the white ink. I have a video on the maintenance as well.
If I print on sheets on the new AR instead of roll does it still feed to the inline?
No sheets do not feed through the inline set up - only the roll
Was looking to order a DTF printer today but the extra pack of DTF paper is out of stock...
Hey there! I reached out to Swing and they got that fixed. You can add it to your cart shrsl.com/3on1u

I don't recommend converting an Epson printer for DTF ..you are still going to feel limited b/c it can't print white.
@@SilhouetteSchool thank you so much !! I've needed someone to say that. How does dtf feel?
The premier u have shown maybe the one I go with does it come with the ink?
Is there a small "hobby" DTF printer?
Hey there, this is really the best 'economical' option.
Is the ink safe for children’s clothing?
I would reach out to the manufacturer for questions regarding ingredients or certifications that you are looking for specifically.
How much that printer dtf...
A3+ is $3199. A3+ R is $3999.
The A3+R is a headache. I regret buying it. Doesn't print and too much troubleshooting.
I just bought the A3+R. How does it not print" and what problems are there? :/

@@tanyabee2024 I hope you have better luck next time.
@@AnnieWhere73 thanks
