With the sublimation Dtf hack you can just press it onto the shirt. There really isn't a need to cure it. But try both ways. One way might work better for you than the other. As far as the Dtf sub hack itself, I tried it and didn't like it. I actually have a video on here with my experience with it. The blocks I used are simple. I got 15 business cards and stacked them. Then on top of that I put the some cut pieces of the bottom foam of an old press I had. It creates enough space to be able to close my press and have it hover

I bought the icolor560. One thing that pissed me off is they give you a standard ink cartridge for C, M, Y & black. They gave me an extended florescent white cartridge. I was able to print 200 sheets before the colors went out & my white is still full. So I had to speed $750 to get the extended cartridges. So just beware of that. I do love the printer because there is no maintenance. You just need to add the cost of A & B sheets to your sale.

@NekoPrints Жыл бұрын

That sounds strange to be honest, I got standard CMYK and W. Why an extended florescent cartridge? And yes I agree, you need to account for the price of the sheets. Which depending on the sheets averages to about $2 and change printed.

I’m curious, there are premium and premium stretch papers for the Uninet iColor. Would those have a better feel and/or durability on part with DTF transfers? I might get a few of the premium papers to test and compare with the standard. The only downside from my research is that premium sheets need to be run through a laminator before marriage of A+B sheets.

From what I've been told from different people that have used other types of paper, it does help. But it's not worth the crazy price difference. I personally never used them. I can't justify paying for the uninet premium 2 step paper. If you do a test, I'd love to hear your results 😁

I'm honestly not sure. I don't think the powder would stick to the toner though since the toner comes out dry and is a powder already rather than an ink. Also, id be hesitant to put any paper not meant for a white toner printer on it because of the heat the printer produces when printing. It could potentially cause damage to your printer

It really all depends on what you need for a particular job. In some cases Dtf transfers might be more cost efficient, in another Dtf could be better for smaller run full color prints.

I own this machine OKI8432 and do NOT recommend it. It DOES crack even on the first wash or with just a little bit of stretch, even after following ALL of their instructions (using t-seal paper to finish it, don't wash same day you print, wash inside out, no fabric softner etc..). Easy way to know this is do a video printing it and streching it a little, you will see how it will crack every single time. If someone made it work for them great.. what I say to this person is, make a video showing your technique and putting it to the test. Also, if the humidity of the room the machine is in is not super high, like over 60, the print will come with smears/dots/marks etc.. If you are printing white or black, the edges will always have a line around the edges of a different color. Hope this helps someone who is trying to decide to buy it or not, the choice is yours but at least you will see the opinion of someone who uses it a lot.
