Depends,i only use but cadlink is probably better. Either ink is great

@@HangryMuscle what is the difference between cadlink and acrorip

Same here, need a printer that just run even if a few days not (we do screenprint as our daily business), any news on your decision?

You're welcome Brandi 😁

CISS does not help with clogging. It makes it easier to shake the ink by hand instead of shaking machine. Currently fighting clogged white & now cyan [white for 3 weeks now j cyan just today] 😞 took print head apart & deep cleaned but i think the clog is in the tan rubber lines. Now to install new lines. 🤦🏻 daily maintanence is a must. I just got lazy & skipped out on it for 5 days. Now trying to save this printer. Next step if it doesnt work is replacing print head for 168.00 😢

Hi , thanks for taking the time to watch. Its still up in air, both have their pros and cons. The ciss uses significantly more ink than the original tanks tho.

I did this in this video. Double check your exit tray is leveled.

No problem, I'm not sure. I would wipe underneath the head.

@@HangryMuscle Ive kinda solved the issue after taking up your tip to get a tile as the tray, works fairly great now just think my film bends to much, do you happen to know what film works without needing tape and what color/white ink settings you use in cadlink? Appreciate ya page a lot!

I have a problem mines just prints black no color any idea what could be the problem?

An assortment but mainly Windex, from etsy but it's no longer available. Any color ciss will work. Its hard to say, there are a variety of reasons that could cause it. Try printing on the film outside of the rip software.

for the large line down the middle, use the tape on the end.

Yes, using an external waste tank, you still need to reset the Maintenance box chip.

Ebay

I use a Xp-15000 ciss

@@HangryMuscleis it the chipped or no chip one

Possibly

What does your nozzle check look like? Are lines missing? May need to use more white ink or you may be curing too quickly before the ink has time to dry.

Ink also might be bad. Could be variety of those things.

Where would you get the supplies mentioned in step 2 the agitator and the circulator device

Aliexpress, ebay

@@HangryMuscle what specifically do I search for

do you have any video of the two products mentioned in #2 because I'm new to this and have no idea of what I'm looking for?

I don't, if you need help I have DTF coaching to assist you in getting setup and running. www.hangrymuscle.com/products/dtf-technical-support-for-epson-et-8550-xp-15000-acrorip-50-hour

Is your printer connected using a usb? Did you leave idle?

@@HangryMuscle yeah I connected it with a USB. When I turn my printer on this morning I printed one picture out and it printed fine except for the little streak on the very bottom of it. so I reprinted it and it only printed down the middle again 😭 and I keep trying to print the same picture and it keeps printing only down the middle 🤷🏼‍♀️

I use this ink dtgpro.com/cicproduct/dtf-quantumv2-1l.php?afl=3277

Windex

@@HangryMuscle thanks sir

@@HangryMuscle just windex ? Anything mixed with it ? Thanks

@@heidistar923 distilled water

@@HangryMuscle is it equal amounts of each ? Thanks

That's up to you.

Get a blue painter’s tape from Walmart and tape(just one line) the back of the film with it.

Reload or open a new copy of the image, make sure you have the correct paper size settings

Thank you both I will try as soon as I get home. My old film worked perfectly but I noticed the new film is more glossy and my old film was more like a matte finish not sure why but it's only printing a strip of the image right down the middle. I had a piece of old film and it prints the whole image fine so I'm guessing my printer doesn't like the new glossy film. Thank you both once again for the quick response.

So the tape worked for one print but now it's doing the same thing just a strip down the middle any other suggestions. I used blue painters tape. Does it have to be the wider one? Mine is only 1 inch wide.

Did you tape it from one end to the other? If it still doesn’t work, try to clean rollers.

Whenever i print. Yes

@@HangryMuscle my prints look great but then when i press them on are coming out dull in color. Any suggestions?

What are you using the printer for, regular printing or DTF printing? If you're using the printer for DTF, you'll need to perform some sort of maintenance eventually, otherwise your prints will have lines or colors will be missing.

@@HangryMuscle Im sorry, I totally missed the DTF.....didn’t even know what that was until i just looked it up. I dont own this particular printer, and I have only printed photos, text and other documents .

Do you buy the warranty? Epson doesn’t give you problems in repairing after removing parts?

@@VERONICA-og8vl you void your warranty the minute you load DTF ink in the machine.

Hi, I would need to troubleshoot your issue to assist you, you can sign up for a DTF coaching session on my website. *Please keep in mind most issues for new printers take about 30-40 minutes to troubleshoot and resolve www.hangrymuscle.com/products/dtf-technical-support-for-epson-et-8550-xp-15000-acrorip-50-hour

Yeah generally

Waaat!? You use just regular ol windex for cleaning print head? So I don't need to buy the print head solution?

I wouldn't say that, I use different solutions for different situations and reasons

Hi, yes I offer hourly coaching. www.hangrymuscle.com/products/dtf-technical-support-for-epson-et-8550-xp-15000-acrorip-50-hour

@@HangryMuscle I was going to pay for A session but you don't the printer already hooked up bc mines is already converted i just need to install the software and see what the line i'm seeing just by printing one shirt and a few more questions. Will you still be able to assist me please comment 😃

Replace the printhead/main board or both

I found one randomly, any 6 color ciss should work

@@HangryMuscle i was trying to use the ciss i bought with my 15000 that died. The tubing is smaller on ciss though and won't go all the way over the damper tip. Is it ok or will it blow off?

For various reasons, mainly so the printer knows what color inks is in each channel and to get the white layer background.
