Doug Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Hi Guys, I ordered a roll of film from China before I knew Andy was getting the 17" rolls in. The roll I was getting was suppose to be 17", but there was some misunderstanding on the person I ordered from and he sent me a 60cm roll which is 23.something inches wide. Is there a way to cut the film roll to 17" so it will work in my P800? If so, what can you cut it with? Thanks, Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wrap the portion you are going to cut ( like 4" or so) with masking tape so it's secure. Measure and mark 17.95". Use a Miter saw. You can look up videos and other things on how to do it Works for vinyl, paper, and probably this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy said you might have built a P800? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnson4 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I did see the post, and I do have a p800 DTF. I just haven’t really had the time to respond. in all honesty, it’s not really any different from the others, other than your output tray you need to make and the waste pad. You don’t need 260ml carts, but you could. The 80ml last FOREVER with DTF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aladco Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Hello, a query what is the appropriate sheet thickness for DTF of 75 microns or 100 microns or which one sells Andy, does anyone know ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
