If your following the video just do what they did. you really only need to remove the rollers, usually takes less than 3-5 minutes just by popping them off with no dissembling. If you want to remove the entire mechanism that works too. You can remove everything on the front related to the paper, including the metal bracket the roller wheels were on, paper tray, and front media loading.

Diego Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Good morning, I see that the mechanical modification is simple, and I see that you have to buy a RIP program, is it very expensive? How feasible is the modification of the printer to DTF, does it present many problems? I have heard that the heads get stuck, is there a solution for that? I am new to this DTF issue, I found out until yesterday but I am interested in knowing more about it. Buenos dias, veo que la modificación mecanica es sencilla, y veo que hay que comprar unprograma RIP, es muy costoso? , que tan viable es la modificación de la impresora a DTF, presenta muchos problemas? he escuchado que los cabezales se atascan, hay solución para eso?, soy nuevo en este tema de DTF, hasta ayer me entere pero me interesa saber mas del tema Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rips are $0-$1,000. Your choice. heads get stuck? What does that even mean? DTF works great and so far has been the easiest and cheapest method to use for initial set-up.

New to the DTG scene, and it is tough DTF is pretty simple, use a supported printer, or buy one. Remove the rollers and make an output tray. buy your Chipless/refillable ink cartridges buy ink, powder, film from Andy. Even EKprint if you want. some curing source and a heat press. Boom. that’s pretty much the sum of DTF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trublu289 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I'm just now finding out about this pretty much at the end of my 1430 dtg conversion. Just out of curiosity would I be able to just get the height at about 2mm and print onto the film from a platten? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could swap carts and use it for both, that would be a nice feature. Since DTG quality is still better, just less versatile.

Use refillable carts and load them with DTF ink. Check your rip to see if it needs to be in a specific order, with the carts in the head it’s an easy change if you need to swap them. Ekprint you can select each channel color individually so it doesn’t matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
