Just watched. Thumbs up. I converted my WF7720 to Dye Sub and now you've got me wanting to convert an EcoTank to DTF. I already have an encotank but it's only cmyk. Time for homework.
Thank you so much for this video. I just got my printer yesterday and now need to order my ink, film , and powder. I feel more confident after eating your video. Once again thank you
This is the best thing to end my long day with❤.. Have been looking for a cheap dtf printer before the conversion idea came to my mind and found your video! Thanks so much for all the info shared int hsi video from the unboxing part to the final outcome of the transfer..
Wow those were the only steps. I have seen other conversion videos that have made this process so complicated and intimidating. Thanks for the video I may have to invest in one.
Omg so this all I gotta do is remove the rollers, your video was a breeze. I’m still thinking about everything because I was about to get into eco solvent as well. Thank you so much for the video 💖💖💖💖
Patrice you always amaze me. I was so afraid you broke the printer. Can’t wait to see more designs. Thank you so much for this informative video❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You make the view of seeing up close more easier, now I really do want one of these printers. Questioned, what about the other colors that is needed for this printer.
Just watched this video, yes it's a little old. Never knew this could be done for a fraction of the cost of dtf printers. My only question is do you have to have some type of software to make it print. I have always only used cricut and printable htv. So was just curious if you have to have anything extra to make the printer correctly print with all the different colors. I currently use an eco tank inkjet to print my htv printable vinyl. and only use my cricut design space for print and cut.
I added the white ink in the first two slots the way you did. When I print out a film, the spots that should be black is printing out white. The parts that should be white is printing out clear.
Love this! I think this video solidified I’m not ready for DTF, but perhaps one day…the shirt looked amazing though. I always appreciate you learning for us and sharing about your experience 💓
I’m using Digital Factory v10 Cadlink. You definitely need it in order to print. Most DTG and White Toner printers use similar softwares. You can also use AcroRip with this printer.
Hi Patrice, love the content and the passion you show when you do videos. Don't give up on dtf it's a learning process and remember maintenance is the key.
Ok I just ordered my Epson 8550 and ordered supplies from Big Boi immmmmmm soooooooo excited. Can you tell me where you take your images from ? Thank you so much and your videos are awesome and helpful! Michelle just sew sew
Yes, I definitely want to see all of the journey!!! I have to admit, I was a wee bit nervous watching you pull those wheels out🤣 Can't wait to see more DTF videos.
Hi Craftable Things Patrice, Thanks for sharing this, can wait to see your next video of all things possible when using it. I was looking to purchase a printer for DTF and you just made my life easier. This group is so awesome, can't wait to get my channel started, you all have really encourage me, Once again Thanks, You Rocks, see you on the next streaming video
As usual this was another awesome video. As much as I loved the shirts I don't think that I could follow all of those steps. But thanks so much for sharing the process and outcome with us. You're fantastic!
I am so glad that I found your tutorial. You are so easy to follow. I have this printer new in the box and have been contemplating sublimation or DTF. Thank you very much for your expertise.
Thank you 💜 very informative and inspiring!!! Just saved me from purchasing a $3,000 DTF printer 🙌🏾 I’ll try this instead. I just pray I can keep up with the white ink maintenance. Is there a way I could remove the white ink after each use???
Patrice this is AMAZING!!! I had seen another youtuber do this with a different epson model. But hers only had 4 colors and she had to cut the film after it prints with a cricut or silhouette. Your way is definitely the way I wanna go!!! I’m so excited to see more tutorials from you. Great job! Sublimation is not what I thought it was gonna be. It’s ok but I don’t like the fact that you can’t print white.
@@CraftableThings They were doing eco solvent. I was all for it until I realized you had to use a cutting machine to cut the film using their process. Your technique is definitely the way to go 😉
I needed to see this video to decide that I do want this next for my business! If you're willing to charge to help people set up via video conferencing, please let us know! I'd totally pay.
Very informative, you explained it very well. Thank you for sharing 😊 Continue to motivate us! We may get into DTF very soon, going with the Epson of course.Thank you Patrice❤️
So I will receive my Epson 8550 tomorrow I bought the big boy ink I got the cadlink software wondering if you had a video on how to set it up and how can you send me the link
Great video. You make DTF, look easy lol. Looking forward to the maintenance video. Also, please tell me you're curing your film in a very well ventilated area. Heard some of those chemicals in the glue could be harmful.
I love how you always explain step by step. Watching your videos is a joy for me and yes DTF printing is really fun. I enjoyed it very much. Now I need to set up my Etsy shop to start making this investment pay off. ❤️❤️❤️
The issue with this will be the white ink. It has to be shaken daily to avoid it from separating and/or clogging the print head/nozzles. I've been doing DTF for well over a year with a L1800. It requires daily maintenance. Please keep us posted after a couple weeks. Good luck!
I plan to keep everyone updated. Eventually, within the next week or so, I'll be adding a circulation system or maybe a CISS. It's been a little over a week and so far, it's going pretty well. I've been performing maintenance...but, of course, paying more attention to the white. Thanks so much for watching!
@@queen_mauri5828 So far, after 3 weeks, it's still going good. The white ink has been holding up pretty well. I'm physically shaking the printer. Give it a little more time. I'll be keeping everyone updated.
I was very concerned about that as well I have the 1430 and 2000 so I been Wondering about this since I have to shake my ink pretty often at least daily
OUTSTANDING video. Thank you for sharing this. You rock, those prints are on point. Did you have to use any specific color profiles? Really love what you are doing. Stay well.
Thanks for watching and nope, no color profiles were needed. I’m way more impressed with the DTF printer than the Sublimation printers (except my Sawgrass).
very helpful! i feel like i want to do this but im very worried about messing up the printer/process since im super clumsy 😭 i also didint understand what you meant by removing the rollers by actvitaing and moving the wheels?, ill def watch more of these videos of yours to try to learn more
I haven't used it since the end of October. I started using the L1800 and neglected it. I'm sure that it's clogged and I will attempt to unclog it soon.
Anyone trying to sell 8550 I had to repurchase my heat press inventory still Ned sublimation paper and printer as I am on Chemo I depend on this as my income to support my kids.Ty
Yes do not I bought mines for 700$ I’ve seen places even Amazon selling them for 1,200 Office Depot is the cheapest on this machine thank u for this video
Gurrrrrl, you did DAT❣ l knew you won't allow it to get the best of you. That's Just in your DNA. 🔥🔥 Pls, show where (exact location of those 4 blocks. Thhanks.
Hi your video was super helpful but i have a question you put white ink in the Black ink fill but how do you print black I trying to print black lettering but its coming out white
hello i pulled out the rollers but i wanted to know about a spring that was by the left side of the rollers can you tell me if it will harm the printer.
hi been watching your video about converting 8550 into dft. I agree with others I am not ready for it but I did watch about getting chip setter and needing a board to catch the prints. Do you have a video that shows how you made the board thing. I want to see how you made it. I bought the printer instead of the 15000, Office max was out and price matched. Thanks for all the learning you are doing and sharing with us, I am late but better than never. Thanks in advance and again Angie

so...how do you shake your ink to not allow it to clog? If it clogs what is the maintenance like? I have another printer that I converted to sublimation and didn't use it for awhile, so I'm now completing maintenance and getting new ink in there. It's an epson eco tank too.
I'm not presently using this printer. However, there are several brands that I have used. Most work the same. Your settings in cadlink will determine the output. I would suggest contacting Cadlink for help setting up and or visit their UA-cam channel.
Hello there, I enjoyed the video. Do I need to adjust the design to print white where it should print black normally? I hope I asked this right and you understand. I’m waiting to convert but not sure how the design process changes or if at all. Thanks a million. Have an amazing day, and feed someone along the way! #aGODthang 💕
Thanks for the video I have been wanting to do this. I have an Epson ego tank brand new still in the box. I’ve had it for probably eight months now and I can’t decide if I want to convert it to sublimation or DTG I know I gotta get this thing out of the box and do something with it. lol thank you
hello!! 👋🏾👋🏾 im just coming across this video today....my question is what does removing the print head do?!?....i aslo converted an 8550 bit my black wasnt printing. how do i fix that?? thank you!!
I have a question, how do you add the dtf ink into the epson bottles? Do you get rid of the original ink the bottle comes with and add DTF ink ? I’m a little confused with that part please and thank you lol
Hello hun great video, but i see this is a year old. For a person looking to buy his first dtf printer is there one u would suggest now over this one? Iv been sourcing out my prints but at the stage where im able to hopefully buy my own printer. Any info would be greatly appreciated godbless
So I seen a comment on another video saying that this will clog and break the printer in 3 months or so because the dtf in the printer will settle and clog and there is no way to stir it. Can you confirm how long the printer lasted after conversion or how you keep from clogging? Please and thank you. 😊
Thanks. I am also looking at doing the conversion. I'd just like to know why the rollers need to be removed? What will happen if you don't?
The rollers will cause smearing of the ink. The print is wet when it comes out.
@@starsshinebrite So how do you solve the roller problem when its wet?
Wanted to ask if you did the conversion yet and how it came out?
What brand of sub ink u using?
You lift the rollers for thick paper
*It prints like no other **Bestt.Digital** printer. i have always loved Epson for the colors they produce.*
I had SO much trouble with this printer! (And then Asurion, the warranty company as well 🤦🏼♀️) I now have a large, expensive paperweight. 😢
OMG!!! This video was just what the doctor ordered!!! Thank You!!!!
Wow this is amazing! I converted one of my epsons to sublimation and now I can convert to DTF?!! Thanks for sharing!!

Hello, thanks for the great video. It’s just missing an explanation for why the wheels need to be removed? Can you please explain the reason for that?
the second set of wheels causes streaks because the ink is still wet as it comes out of the printer.

Hello hun great video, but i see this is a year old. For a person looking to buy his first dtf printer is there one u would suggest now over this one? Iv been sourcing out my prints but at the stage where im able to hopefully buy my own printer. Any info would be greatly appreciated godbless
So I seen a comment on another video saying that this will clog and break the printer in 3 months or so because the dtf in the printer will settle and clog and there is no way to stir it. Can you confirm how long the printer lasted after conversion or how you keep from clogging? Please and thank you. 😊
