  1. sorry for the long delay in replying i hear you completely about the limited nozzles on the 1400. ive still not managed to start anything yet as i went studio component buying nuts, ive now bought an r2000 used dtg for 300 pounds its all supposedly working and converted. ive purchased an epson 9900 stylus pro 44" for converting to dtf. need to get the refillable cartridges and change the printhead and fix an ink cartridge error happening with black matte ink cartridge is installed its causing all ink channels to flash up x, ive bought a new mainboard as a spare just incase changing the ink carts for refillables with reset chip and flashing the firmware doesnt work but hopefully i can get it working, if not have to sell the parts or sit on them till i get another maybe smaller model thats compatible with the parts. ive also thrown the baby out with the bathwater and invested in a computerised sewing and embroidery machine and a 24 inch vinyl plotter and just to make sure i get this right ive signed up for entry level sewing and textiles and level 1 maths totally not relevant but i plan to do maths lv2 electronics basics and woodwork basics once ive done those ill start modifying and making dtg's with newer printers. what id like to ask you is would i be better off using the 1400 for sublimation and investing in an ecotank 8550 or an xp15000 to do high quality a3 dtf sheets to get going in dtf im asking as provided the r2000 dtg works ill at least then have if i buy a better printer for dtf ill have dtf dtg sewing and embroidery and vinyl to be getting started with i could use the 1400 for a3 sublimation along with my xp335 for a4 sublimation i ask whether buying a newer printer would make more sense and be less frustrating and use 1400 for basic sublimation ink as i dont know how long if ever this 9900 is going to take to fix on my budget (really need to get the refillable carts and flush the ink lines asap god knows how long it was standing its gotta ge a year im expecting to go through hell and back to get it flushed)
  2. Unidtg have an ebook on how to convert as well as pcb's for driving other models even the 1400 model I haven't converted one yet as I'm a novice and waiting for friend with woodwork and basic electronics to walk me through it it is based on friction drive technology which can drive a DIY dtg/dtf loader/base without need for pcb as to old to support unidtg I spoke to them and bought the ebook I have two one I'm gonna dedicate to film and one to fabric it is possible and unidtg have ebook to do it hope this helps however I been told they are slow about 20 MINS a print ut for me starting out right now I'm on zero prints per day so raising that to twenty MINS per t-shirt is a great starting point plus time for loads of coffees while I learn dtg dtf vynyl and sublimation from ground up lol good luck
