Tell me how black powder would work on white as for seeing any black residue? I like that you say it's softer, less rubber feel. I just purchased the Epson Xp 15000 to convert to DTF Printer. I bought less of the black powder than white. But if black can look same but feel softer... than I'd be more interested in black. Plus I'll be doing a lot of blk tshirts. Thank you.

It looks pretty close in our opinion. Most of our customer's do not have issues with whites looking faint as long as you are printing with good bright white ink.

@transfersuperstars Жыл бұрын

Good question, powder comes in different micron sizes, so you’ll need to play with what works for you. There are also different melting points. Humidity and static is another issue. It’s really a science.

Hi, I discovered you by watching your videos on KZfaq. I have an Epson 1800L printer converted to DTF, to print only white logos on a black t-shirt, can I get excellent results by printing the white isotro at 1440x720 or should I print the white at 1440x1440?

@transfersuperstars 4 ай бұрын

You should get similar results if you're just printing white prints. The key is to use good white ink. You can probably turn your white % up. I would turn it all the way up. If it starts to drip, then turn it down. You are limited with how much white ink the film can absorb.

Can DTF powder be use on regular vinyl iron on transfers? What fabrics are best, 💯% cotton, cotton blend or nylon?

@transfersuperstars 11 ай бұрын

No, dtf power is only usable for DTF printers. Vinyl is a different process. DTF Works for all the fabrics you mentioned. Only difference is temperature setting

@sa4555 Жыл бұрын

Yes and No. For jerseys you have to lower heat press temps. If for cotton we use 160 degree Celsius, for polyester/jerseys we use 130 Celsius. There are new low melting powders coming to the market.

@STPMartin Жыл бұрын

@@sa4555 we are currently looking at DTF machines and this exact problem is holding us back in terms of bad migration on sub jerseys, in testing with the machine company we have tried normal thickness logos however the sub always come through even at lower temps they tried as low as 105C we then tried bulking up the logo by applying a lot of ink and again applying at low temps which did help with the migration however after the first wash the quality of the logo degraded badly. I was going to suggest they tried black powder however if this mixes with the white ink that will cause a different issue?

@sa4555 Жыл бұрын

@@STPMartin I can suggest 3 things you can try: 1- During pressing do you use high pressure? If so then you will end up with the same issue, try decreasing the pressure, instead of increasing white ink opacity. On jerseys/polyester even at low pressure the transfer sticks. 2- press timing: you can also try decreasing the time of each press, we found 7 secs per press to be optimum duration, however you must take care not to lower temps too much as this might affect washability of transfer. 3- using different PET film. In our experience when we use matte film instead of usual glossy films, we get good results for transfers on polyester. We combine medium pressure at around 130 Celsius and matte film, our prints came out very nice. As far as i know there are 2 thickness matte films available, 75 and 100 micron, we have tried both and get pretty much similar results. Another thing to note with matte films is amount of white ink used, usually if you put 100% down on matte, the ink starts to flow so we stick between 80 to 85% opacity for white ink. Try doing what I suggested above and I am sure you will find a combination that gets your desired results. Edit: the issue is not with DTF machines but that of ink and transfer films, we must remember dtf technology is still in its infancy when compared to others, its constantly improving. So try focusing on inks and PET films suppliers, to improve transfer quality.

Speed/bake-time and temperature is my guess. Try a lower temperature based on your adhesion powder. You’ll need find tune those things. Lower temperature Lower temperature, slower belt speed Faster belt speed One of the above options might fix the issue.
