What should I print next?!
A tangerine on a potato
The ugliest christmas sweater design fathomable, not even properly placed on the shirt just a PNG of the design of an ugly Christmas sweater
I want the second shirt
Make a blanket out of a bunch of prints
Pants
I used to use an Epson ET-2550 ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 , an early model of the ink tank style. It worked well, but had one nuisance that drove me up the wall; if you didn't put it in high quality print mode you'd get a streak across the page. I'm happy to say I have yet to see this with this printer. The print quality has been fantastic so far, the set up was super easy. All in all I'm very happy with this printer.
1. That is friggin cool as hell
2. Dude! You look like you have been hitting the gym! Looking good man!
He literally says he’s hitting the gym lol
@@ChiefShaqeeqee he is pretty buff though, major increase, big ups
Uncle Rey :)
When they are offering a $750 discount you know that shit ain't gonna be cheap
Its still $2750 With the code
@@SkullsDev But delivery to CA website said is free but then when you want to order cost over $500
I know right
true it costs 3900 dollars
It's made by Roland. They deal in expensive and accessories to expensive. Didn't realize they made anything other than musical instruments.
Such an underrated channel!
U are the underrated one
wow a checkmark with only 12 likes
True
The BT-12 is incredibly fast and easy to use, but the ink washes out of cotton on the first wash. I have a couple of shirts printed that look SO clean, but I'm afraid to wash them since I know that they'll look years older after doing laundry. Try printing the image twice on the garment without moving the cassette to maximize the life of the print
Same it sucks i have it and can’t even get my money so I have to sale in the street to make my money back
"Absolutely anything you want."
Ok
Ok
Damn, someone did it before me xd
Found the dad comment
@@ueu same lol
The printer might be reasonably priced, but u know full well they always get u on the cartridges.
I am actually really pleased so far - I have printed a couple more full color shirts and I have barely seen a dip to ink levels at all yet. So they should last a good while.
Normally, once a printer goes over $2000, ink magically becomes cheaper
@@UnnecessaryInventions just wait until you hit half ink and the printer tells you that you're out and can't print anything
3,500 ish dollars is reasonable? They didn’t even give him a exclusive code they just gave him a link that automatically uses their fall code.
Ya it’s like 1000 per color and most DTG’s mostly white as a base so you got to buy a lot of white
First off, my first reaction was "wow hes getting buff" so good work at gym. Second, haven't like 3 companies offered you a mouse?? It boggles my mind that you can design this well with a track pad.
The question that I always ask with any printer is: How much does the ink cost?
A set of 4 costs about $320 + tax. What's more important than the cost of the ink is the quality of the print. From several owners' comments, the colors wash out quickly. In order to make the colors last longer, they have to print an image twice, which doubles the cost of your ink. So... if the ink cartridges claim you can make 300 prints, you actually could make 150 prints if you decide to print twice for each image.
@@onespeedliteCan you use any other color than white? Wonder if it looks good?
I work for Roland DGA in the customer service dept and we sell so many of these BT-12's because they are amazing machines! Thank you so much for this video, its amazing!!! You can print my face or comment on whatever you would like :)
This printer looks strangely familiar…. Ricoh Ri100 DTG printer 😊
@@Pimparel76 My guess is that they are just slapping their name on the machine. It's called private labeling. I don't think neither Roland nor Richo produce the printer. While it is true that the printer is relatively affordable, easy to use, etc., I am doubtful of the quality of the prints. Several comments from owners complained about the colors quickly washing out after being washed. That is not good if it is true. I don't want to deal with customers asking for refunds and getting bad reviews.
First idea i had as an "outlandish Print Idea" is a T-Shirt with some kind of origami instruction on it. Some dottet lines to show where to cut and tiny arrows showing how to fold. Maybe with further instructions printed on the inside ^^
Wow. That prints really well and look super comfortable. Can’t wait to see all the awesomely unnecessary inventions you use that for
That's so awesome! $3500 for the printer obviously isn't cheap, but it's an amazing price given how much these devices have cost up until now. Can you tell us roughly how many prints you get out of one set of ink cartridges?
And how much is the set of cartridges !!! That s a huge information to get ... that is not told on a sponsored video usually... just saying...
@@MrDaoudx on the website it takes 4 cartridges they are 80 bucks a pop and are good for 500-600 prints according to them.
I love that you said a lot of unnecessary things!
Wow, you can print designs out multiple times on the same shirt? So cool! And what better way to demonstrate it than with the iconic Gator Grips™ making every hand gesture under the sun?
Print your torso on the shirt but with a tattoo. The "No Ragrets" would be perfect.
"I'm a narcissist and all i got was this lousy t-shirt."
Print that Matty! ^.~
Coop ON! 💚
"I'm a narcissist so i bought a t-shirt printer."
I love toys, and that is one of the coolest toys I've ever seen. Sadly, I followed the link and found out what it costs!
You should washi it a couple of times to see if the direct to print will hold up. OKI heat transfers do hold up if you wash them inside out. (They print white.)
I had no idea something like this existed!
Maybe print on a t-shirt the Color-Testing pages you usually have to do with new printers?! Could be pretty cool
Imagine if there were a infinity gator gauntlet , that uses some of the "jbitz" as the stones or fuses the mc burger sauce gautlet with the gator glove , or something like dat
"If this tshirt doesn't scream I absolutely love myself, I really don't know what does"
Me, an art major currently wearing a tshirt I screenprinted a self portrait onto that I made for printmaking class: 👁👄👁
"Something.....Absolutely anything you want...." Great video! Have thought of getting one of these for a while as well!now I really want one. Thanks! 💙
I would love to see a t-shirt of the person taking an instant photo recursively. Would look great carrying that camera, and posing the same.
MattyB mustache T please … MattyB written like a stash 🤘
First
Finally: Unnecessary Sponsor for the Unnecessary Inventor
P.S: Perfect Match
Perfect for each other
The way you speak and the way you present is very cool
This is one of the coolest printers I have ever seen. I love your first t-shirt !!!
This is actually so cool. I wish I could get one but they’re so expensive!
Me too!!!!!
It's goes up to 3000 bucks
@@grzfury_.01 that's cheap compared to other DTG printers lol
You can try getting a vinyl cutter and cut some heat transfer. I have a business making t shirts and it's really fun
I have a question, does it only have to be a white T-Shirt? Or can it also be use on any plain color T-Shirt?
No, but i guess the colors is best for filming that way, if you have eg a red t-shirt the red colors would be less visible, of course the white colors would be a lot more visible on a darker shirt
Absolutely love your channel and style. I enjoy the short videos, but the longer ones like this that break everything down are absolutely amazing! Keep on making gold!
I use sublimation... produces good results.
Requires better results the more polyester you have. I do have some spray allowing you to print on 100% cotton.
The white in the shirt is the white you need for printing white. It appears this printer requires a white shirt as it didn't lay down a layer of white ink. It also didn't require a pre spray and dry treatment only a heating. I do the same thing with a heat press for sublimation.
Some DTG printers are around $20,000 not counting the pre treatment box. Also the print heads need to go through a cleaning cycle or the heads will clog.
White toner printers are basically laser printers with a white toner, however they also require you print on a special substate and then transfer the image.
If this printer is close to the price of a white toner printer and prints directly to 100% cotton teeshirts it would be cool.
There is a myriad of ways to get a design on a shirt. It just depends on how dedicated you are getting business and how much you want to spend and the amount of space you have. Honestly if you have a design for instance for a vacation destination and you could personalize it with a name and charge a premium it would be good... Lets say you lived near a beach and had a business providing local tourist spots low volume shirts.
This looks like one of the best printers. I wanna start printing my own t-shirts, and possibility start my own printing business.
Matty, when MOMA comes calling don't be empty-handed... keep the 1st tee👍
That was definitely a necessary shirt! You’re amazing can’t wait to see what inventions are next!
Love your energy and enthusiasm, instant sub! That machine looks amazing, I'll have to check it out. Thanks for a great video!
White shirts will always print better than on black. Coming from tee business background, i will still always choose screen printed over dtg. They just don't last. Have fun though, i certainly did ;)
Love your unnecessary inventions! You're a crack up.
You have just made my Christmas list very expensive! Oh my goodness I would be using this machine 24/7! I wish they would let you do a giveaway for the machine 🤣 So freaking cool! I love the narcissist wall! You just gotta appreciate yourself sometimes ❤️
Maybe this is something that he can actually sell
This is a rebadged Ricoh Ri-100. I used an identical printer and software where I used to work. The only downside is that you can't print on black or dark colours as there's no white ink.
love this unnecessary inventions channel
“I’ve never won anything in my life.”-Take my winning virginity.
Print a teeshirt that as a QR code that goes to Rick roll UA-cam video.
That’s to old
Oh wow, its really not that expensive. You could probably get it to pay for itself if you could like sell t-shirts of selfies at weddings and such.
I need this in my life and my shop. take my money already!
A new door opened! Great job👍
Print a shirt that says “the printer I used to print this unnecessary shirt is unnecessarily expensive”. 😜 Or how about “Unnecessary Inventions got a free Roland printer and all I got was this lousy t-shirt”
Winner!!!
Nice man, i used this for a bit when i worked at a silkscreen fabric. These days they use these machines to do 3 color printing but for 1 or 2 colors a traditional silk method is used.
I swear I need this printer so bad
Man, that printer is next level.
Your photographer is amazing. That wall has such a cool pop vibe
This guy can make some *SICK* merch with that
This is my very fist unnecessary comment on your channel! Very interesting video thank you 🙏🏼
A lil crooked but I love it 😂 I’ve been doing Sublimation for 2 years now, I’m ready to get one of these though, sublimation is so limited 😢
I love you just discovered you and I am 12 and make my own inventions to I have made a whole arcade out of cardboard boxes. LOVE THE SHIRT
Thanks for your video- I think you are a real artist. Can you print on a black tee shirt also? some of the machines dont do well on black
You're the best youtube channel
WOW! What a printer!!! Does everything in a small package.
Un-B-Friggin'-Believable! I have to have one of these!!!!
Really enjoy your videos... Bring me joy everytime
Love from Iran
Came over here to UA-cam because I saw one of your TikTok shorts. Your channel is fabulous!
I just ordered that machine yesterday on sale! 😝 Do you like it or sould I have waited for something else.
Do you have to pre treat the shirt first? I know most dtg stuff needs a solution on the shirt first.
Okay I just so happened to stumble across your video / page and I couldn't even finish the video before I just had to say something.
If you've never met your doppelganger I got em right here in Kansas City, Missouri... it's my little brother (Travis) Like no dip! Y'all have got to go out for lunch; it's on me - no, not lunch... well yes lunch!
Love Machine how’s the durability, maint, and prices, also what can I use the Gator Grip, oops, can I use the G Grip glove for gripping one eye Blind Baby Gators? Just wondrin
Damn...I love this inventions🤯🤯🤯
Does the ink wash off from cotton on first wash? Nice printer!
Some inventions look really useful
Way to funny with the MUSTACHE lol.
ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING
That is an awesome shirt printer!
Absolutely anything I want ! Love this plan to use your code and save my money to buy one! I want to design clothes for a living so thank u for your help.
Unnecessary Inventions is the best youtuber
This machine is on sale right now.. add the discount code and its almost bearable to order to Canada!
My man my man you are the most unique person I wish all UA-cam videos could be like yours you make an interesting and fun you're different I don't usually like subscribe until I had to like and subscribe keep it on real straight from South Africa
How long before you have to replace the ink?
How many wash cycles can the shirt go through before it looks like crap?
How much for ink replacement?
first time on your channel….. the “Cuisine Curtain” just killed me with laughter… SUBD!
What about a print of a picture where you are wearing the T-shirt which has a print of another picture where…you know where I am going with this 😂
Two questions: A) Can you use dark shirts,especially black, and B) How much does this cost?
And how much is the set of cartridges !!! That s a huge information to get ... that is not told on a sponsored video usually... just saying...
Looked it up today Nov 2024 and it says this machine is discontinued.
What it actually says on the website : The Roland DGA BT-12 DTG printer has been discontinued. Spare parts, inks, and parts will continue to be readily available.
that was so pleasing of watching
How long does this cartridge last? How much does it cost to replace please?
I would like to see it after washing :)
Looking Good
Though I guess it doesn't work well in black.
Do they provide a white printer powered/ink
4:46 "Something, absolutely anything you want, maybe I'll even print your comment on a shirt, on top of this shirt, and you get both shirts"
Oh my gosh, I want this printer!!
I really like the first gator grip shirt.
SOMTHING! ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING YOU WANT!!!!!!
How many prints can you get? Can it do large orders?
I think i will need this machine in future...
Nice shirt!
ANY my ass. Im sorry ,man, but your not printing white inks with that machine onto black or dark tees. It works for light and white tees.
Your videos are so cool they are amazing 👍
Hi, is this printer only for white tshirts. Like does it has white ink. And can it print on black, maroon or navy blue tshirt
Can you please do a video showing how you did the all over print using the dtg from Roland.
how does it stand up to machine washing?
I’d love this t-shirt
