I have the same model and I have watched the videos of care and I’m so worried ! I’m also away for a week

      I use the A4 Procolored DTF Printer. I love it, but it is a smaller printer and does not print wide format prints. I haven't used any other printer to be able to recommend them. I do love my printer and being smaller, it is more affordable, but it would be nice to have an A3 printer to be able to do larger prints. Thanks so much for watching!

    Would you recommend this a4 to get started with? Can i load several sheets at a time?

    • @MakingwithMarilyn
      @MakingwithMarilyn  7 місяців тому +1

      It is a really nice beginner DTF printer. If I had the ability to go up in price, I would get the A3 since it will print up to about 13" wide instead of just over 8" wide. The A4 really limits the size of what you can do, but I work around that issue. I can put several sheets in the back but I load them just when I am ready to use it so that they don't get dusty. If I am printing 5 sheets at a time, then I would go ahead and load 5 sheets. Thanks for watching!

    • @MakingwithMarilyn
      @MakingwithMarilyn  4 місяці тому

      Sounds like either your white inks are clogged, which can happen very easily with DTF printers, or you do not have your settings set to print the white layer(s). Did it ever print the white?

    What is the biggest you can print with that printer? I bought the Procolored L1800 in December and it stopped woking on me. I have been since working with the technicians trying to fix it

    • @MakingwithMarilyn
      @MakingwithMarilyn  3 місяці тому

      My printer only prints up to 8.3 inches wide. The one issue I had with it was the blinking lights when it thinks the waste tank is full. The resetting software on my thumb drive didn’t work. I Skyped with their tech and he fixed it in a few minutes. I hope they figure yours out.

    How do you deal with maintenance and traveling? I travel for 2-3 weeks at a time. That is the only thing keeping me from getting a DTF, but I still will love to have one.

      I haven’t had to do it yet, but there is a way to prep them for when you are on vacation. I will have to do that late this summer. For our weekend trips, I do a couple of printhead cleanings when I get home.

      It may be a modified L805, but I'm not sure and I'm away from the house. It is the Procolored A4 size printer. The least expensive one they sell. If you want to check it out on their website, it will probably say.

    Why did my prints just print with no white ink at all? One showed it was at 100% on W1 and W2, the other one didn't show it had white ink on the back but I just assumed that's how the image was made.
