Thank you for an extremely informative video. Not only did i learn about ink and converting, you also gave great options for those who don't have electric tools at home.
It's actually working😊, but the drawback is that even a slight movement of the film can ruin the print. I personally find it more challenging compared to just opening the printer and removing the roller. Although it can be a bit intimidating for someone like me who isn't tech-savvy, there's no need to worry about any springs popping out or anything tricky. Just make sure to remember where all the screws go. In my case, I left one roller on both sides and cut them so I could feed a 4-inch long film.

Hi so if i understand you don't need to flush the head with cleaner if not use during week end ? it only need to shake and launch a head clean ? right ?
Would converting the epson et 8550 be about the same process? 1. Remove the rollers 2. Rip software to enable white ink 3. External waste for ink 4. Install DTF ink
Am printing on a l1300 Epson printer, but only CMYK n no white, I take the printed sheet for white backing through screen, turnd out to be cheaper by allmost 50% then the l1800 cmykww inks, yes little tedious job but u save a lot,
Acrorip. If you are not going to use your printer for more than a week you will enter a dangerous territory where you may end up permanently clogging your printhead. Long term storage will require a complete flush and lubrication.
Very valuable information, thank you. Will this method allow for printing up to the edge of the film without any problems? And what would be the maximum size you can be able to print?
Sir, we do appreciate your effort on this video...I have watched a lot of negative feedback about this converted printer...do you advice me to use it or not
Thank you for your time to make this video for us. Can I ask, if the printer is for sublimation printing but never been used, is steel needed to be mechanical converted or just need to fill with dtf ink? Thanks
Sublimation printers are just regular printers that print with sublimation ink. Sublimation paper absorbs sublimation ink and there is no smudging. So you will still need to carry out the mechanical conversion.
This is very helpful what application or software do you use for printing ? I'm using PartnerRIP Pro and I'm having trouble printing. What happens is that whenever I print my layout on film sheets the layout starts on the edge of the film not leaving any border even after adjusting any tips will help thanks!
Ive just bought the L1800, could only find it as a sublimation bundle. Will convert to dtf and have put an order in for consumables on your website. Can you recommend a vendor for replacement printheads?m for £60 you mention Would like to be prepared for when print head fails.
The vendor that we used in the past is all out of stock due to DTF popularity so I can't really recommend anyone from first hand experience. I guess any vendor with good reviews is your best bet.

Hello friend, I am testing my DTF machine but it has been impossible for me to take the PET film, is any modification made so that it can take the sheet?
Is it very glossy on the other side? Some DTF film is just bad and causes constant problems. Try looking up printers not taking transparencies as those are a lot more popular and it's a common problem. Maybe you'll find a good solution. I know some people rub the rubber paper rollers with alcohol. Can't help you much here bud.
Hi, just set one of these up and no matter what I do the printer wont print colors, even in the windows device and printers advanced preferences, test prints. How can I fix this ?? I have tried changing the ink channels and have definitely got it set to print color in the print settings in the RIP software but nothing but black and white comes out??
Hey, many thanks for this video! Just a question: I’m about to order the inks and all additional items form your website to give this a try (printer have my own) and I just wonder how is it possible to get the USB key with dongle for acrorip for such reasonable price. Everywhere else it costs around 345€ or so.
Hello. Thank you for your interest and sorry for a late reply. Acrorip 9 is cheaper than acrorip 10. You only need acrorip 10 for xp-15000. Older printers such as L1800, P400, P600 etc. work with acrorip 9.
So this ink wont be dry ones is out the printer ? For that you dont have to do any conversion right? I always thought the printers has some kind of systems to dry the ink when the paper exit.
Desktop inkjet printers don't dry the ink. It's the paper that absorbs the ink. This is why when you buy cheap thin printer paper and try and print out a photo, it often comes out wet. In our case we want it to come out wet.
I’ve been using mine with regular ink and I wanted to ask if it would be safe to drain all the ink and use dtf ink after the conversion or do I have to use a printer head cleaner to make sure all the regular ink is drained from the head too ?
It's recommended to empty the ink and wash/flush everything with at least distilled water. Printhead, tanks, lines, dampers. Mixing different ink types is not a good idea.
Hello, could you maybe help me ?? I have a problem with my printer, the two ON / OFF and Ink lights are on. I filled up the inks, put the cushion back on and vacuumed off the rest and also cleaned the print head. Unfortunately the printer doesn't work. If I press the button with ink for three seconds, the on / off button lights up and after two hours nothing happens. I would be happy if you could help me further. Best wishes
Hi. Has this kind of "modified" printer difference with the printers made especially for DTF printing? I mean final quality of the print. I'd like to start such kind of business, I have L1800, want to use it as a "low cost trial" before buying the dedicated DTF printer but still doubt if it's a goog idea. Thanks in advice for your reply.
Dedicated DTF printers are just professionally converted Epson printers. The print quality depends on the Epson print head. If you convert an L1800 it will have an exact same print quality as a professional DTF printer with an L1800 print head.
Hello. I have a question, please. After 8-10 pages printing, dampers become empty (or have air). White first, and then black and the others. And I need to suck the inks manually. Is there a solution for that? Thank you.
There is some sort of ink flow issue. There is a twist thing on the ink tank. Try turning it. It stops the ink flow for when you need to move the printer. Might also be blockage.
We don't clean the printhead manually until it needs cleaning. Which is almost never. But we do run automatic cleaning every morning before printing or every 3 days when not printing.
Thank you very much. This is a great video and ca not understand why anyone would give it a thumbs down. I do have a question. What did you use to connect the tubes together for the waste line?
I have a accurip 9 and bought now L1800. Can you explain me how i connect the printer to accurip. Because that rip software has no L1800 in printer list. Thanks
You sir are a genius! So just do this, buy the ink, pet film, I already have photoshop, and I am good to go? Sorry I am new to all this. Oh! What's the main difference between this model and the L805?
Oh ok, so photoshop would not work? Also where did you buy your 1800? I am having some issues finding one. I see some on Ebay but I feel a lil leary ordering from the individuals on there.
@@jjsmsalas1 Photoshop won't work. It's not as simple as just printing a design out. You need to apply a white layer on top of your colour, choke the white etc. Rip software such as acrorip tricks your printer into doing something it does not do by default. This printer came from Epson. We are one of the biggest DTF suppliers in the UK.
Is that really the only two steps needed to convert a brand new L1800 into printing DTF? do you have problems with bent film (from a roll)? like getting stuck in the middle. and can i convert a used L1800? do i have to do anything different? Thanks.
Yes, those are the only steps. No, there are no problems with bent film. We sell flexible film that does not crease or get stuck. Yes, a used printer will need to be cleaned, flushed, old ink removed and printhead cleaned. Be careful, most cheap used inkjet printers come with clogged printheads. Sellers often say stuff like "It worked fine when I used it but it sat for a while and head might need a good clean". In other words, the printhead is dead and they are trying to get rid of it.
@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 thank you for detail answer. And im also wondering, after this modification, will the epson warranty still valid? Since we never got close to the warranty sticker. Most other videos i watched require the removal of all the casing and void the warranty.
@@winrajunus6879 Epson warranty does not cover damage caused by non EOM parts, ink, modifications or software. In theory, if your main board dies, Epson should be able to replace it, however, they will most likely link it to non OEM ink or removed rollers. I have never had any mechanical problems with L1800, only printhead problems, so I never had to make warranty claims. Maybe printer forums will have more answers because people have been modifying L1800s for a long time, years before DTF was even a thing. So there should be plenty of people sharing their Epson warranty experience with modified sublimation printers etc.
You'll be fine. The pushing is done by the wide rubber rollers before the print head. You don't really need those that go after the print head. So you can either keep a few on each side or remove them completely. Either way you'll be able to print A3 and A4.
p400, p600, p800 will print faster. dx5 head printers. Even older r2400 type of printers will print faster. I'll need to do a whole other video for maintenance. But you can start by shaking white ink and printing frequently.
Hello. I would like to use this printer for DTF printing. Can I use the included ink? Can I buy only white and print it? I'm a beginner, so I just don't understand. Thank you very much.
I bought a used one of these and im about to convert it. how would i switch the ink to dtf from sublimation if the lines and ink tank were filled with sublimation ink first
Great, what happen if the printer stay inactive for 3 weeks shall we have to leave it connected? we have had a DGT printer before and the white clogging issues was endless if the white ink cartridges were not shaked daily
It will still require the same maintenance as a DTG printer, just not as much and as often. If you plan on leaving it sitting for 3 weeks you will need to flush it with cleaning solution. Inkjet printers in general are not designed to sit around. Even a regular office printer with genuine Epson ink will clog up after a month and will require some sort of maintenance.
so looks like you put the white ink in the place of the light magenta and the light cyan, how does the system know that is white ink? Is this controlled by the software?
Is there any need to change the printer head height to allow more space, I have seen some suggestions of having to do that but not sure if it is really needed
@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 Brilliant, so from the brand new out the box L1800 with Change to DTF inks and film and this conversion we are good to print DTF?

That's very informative and helpful to me. Thanks for the information. But can you please make a video how and which software can set the white ink spraying and percentage of white ink etc.. Thanks in advance.
One the rollers are removed you will never be able to print the last 3cm of the page or so. Whether it's big or small page size. You will still be able to print on any size of film/paper though.
@@edmesser1 There is still plenty of stock left. We get them from our EU based suppliers who we spent a lot of time and money buiolding a relationship with so you will have to do your own research I'm afraid. Having said that, they don't sell to individuals anyway.

Very good and informative videos
Thank you for this your video is great!
Can i do dtf printing with the ink that comes with the printer? Or i need to buy special type of ink
You need special ink. Also, you don't get white ink with the printer.
the rip softwere comes with the printer?
Does it ever have problems grabbing the transfers?
Yes, all printers do occasionally. I've made a video on how to fix that.
Nice video..Thanks for sharing this video.
Is there any need to change the printer head height to allow more space, I have seen some suggestions of having to do that but not sure if it is really needed
There is no need for that
@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 Brilliant, so from the brand new out the box L1800 with Change to DTF inks and film and this conversion we are good to print DTF?
@@stephenfowler8741 Yes, you will also need rip software, powder, cleaning supplies and a heat press.
@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 you are a legend, thank you. This has helped a lot
Hi again wanted to ask you also did you prime the dampers or worked directly?
Hello. It's laways better to prime.
Yea that's what I thought , may I ask what software are you using? And is there a way to download it for free?
@@tarekhaig Any rip software will work. We use acrorip. You need a phisical USB key to run it.
Thank you for an extremely informative video. Not only did i learn about ink and converting, you also gave great options for those who don't have electric tools at home.
That's very informative and helpful to me. Thanks for the information. But can you please make a video how and which software can set the white ink spraying and percentage of white ink etc..
Thanks in advance.
OK, I will.
after removing the rollers, what happened when printing small sizes?
One the rollers are removed you will never be able to print the last 3cm of the page or so. Whether it's big or small page size. You will still be able to print on any size of film/paper though.
Can you tell me what kind of white ink to use?? Coz the L1800 does not come with one can yu help me on this thanks
You need white DTF ink from www.dtf.technology/
THX for this video, helps a lot.
Is the L1800 discontinued? Looked for new cannot find.
We get brand new ones in stock every 2 weeks. Would you like us to reserve one for you when more stock arrives?
@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 Where are you finding them? I went to the EPSON site and it says they are discontinued.
@@edmesser1 There is still plenty of stock left. We get them from our EU based suppliers who we spent a lot of time and money buiolding a relationship with so you will have to do your own research I'm afraid. Having said that, they don't sell to individuals anyway.
Salve con questo sistema dtf su che materiale può essere trasferito? solo poliestere o anche altri materiali? esempio: Tazze, Allumino, plastica, vetro, legno, cotone,...?
