What Questions Should You Take Care Before Start Your DTG Printing?

  Hi, Nice to see you. In my last article I have shared you a high quality Epson F2000 direct to garment printer for your T-shirt DTG printing.  This technology is mostly used in the T-shirt direct inkjet printer. But the T-shirt should better be cotton fabric. While do you know what questions should you take care before you start your DTG printing? Then today in order to let your DTG printing achieve a better printing effect I will share you more. The specific question that need to take care are as follows.

Do you need pre-treat shirts in advance?
  Generally we suggest pre-treat the t-shirt in advance. We recommend 3 weeks but have actually had shirts pretreated for months and still gotten good results. The hardest part is keeping pretreated shirts clean and dust free until you need them.
Can it print on the blend cotton/poly blends (70/30) ?
  Yes, of course. But you should avoid printing on any clothing with odor blockers or any kind of stain resistant technology though. We use water based inks and those are MADE to repel water!
If there is a wrinkle in the t-shirt when printing, what will happened?
   The wrinkle will be still in the t-shirt after printing. So remember pay attention to the t-shirt before printing.
Will the print head got clogged if not use it for a while?
   If you never use the printer, the print heads will eventually clog. But the WIMS and good maintenance make this very rare.

What RIP software should the DTG printer use?
  Use RipPro C6. It comes with the new DTG printers and is made specifically for them.
Would you ever need to pretreat a light color shirt?
  We recommend that you do pretreat light garments. That way, you’ll get better color fastness, croc fastness and the image will wash better and last longer.
What will influence the quality of you DTG garments?
  A. The quality of the garment
  B. How well you pretreated it
  C. How you wash it
How long can the machine sit without running?
  If you want to leave it for more than a few days then we suggest a system flush. Then you can leave it for as long as you’d like.
What material do you have to pretreat?
  We pretreat everything except for some wood products.
How long and cost for pre-treatment per shirt?
  Pretreatment takes under a minute. Cost is negligible.

  Okay, These all above are the questions I concluded. May be the quantity of the question is much, but I think if you can take care of it your DTG printing effect will be better and your machine can have a longer service life. Of course if you have any needs or questions welcome to contact us at any time. We will provide you with the best quality product and service. Hope my article can be useful to you. Thank you for your reading.
