i love the printmaker! i hate the app, its so clunky to me even though i just upload my own designs!! Also there is an option to run it an infinite number of times so that you dont have to keep realigning it! its directly above the 1x option.
I didn't like the infinite option since you can't tell when it stops. I kept stopping in the middle of a print and then couldn't continue on with my pattern. So I found 5x the perfect length for me to run the machine without error :) I didn't have any trouble uploading my own images. Are you designing on a computer and bringing the designs in through the web app?
@@KarleyHall I design in Illustrator/Photoshop then I upload it to the app. I am using my iPad which is a bit older so that might be my problem!
for the infinite I just tape a sheet of paper to the end of my substrate and run it until it hits the paper, most designs I do are end to end so I don't worry about where it stops.
@@thewestcoastkraeers what file type are you exporting as? I’ve had the best luck with png files!
I would love to see more videos using the Printmaker. Thank you!
Thanks for this video, Karly. ❤ I grabbed one yesterday from Michael’s ($50 off) and am so excited to play with it. Oh, the possibilities!
I purchased this to use on my nature journaling watercolor sketchbook. It is a bit of a challenge to set up (mainly because I was so excited to work with it and didn't read that it needed to be fully charged before you start pairing it).
Though I used a ruler to help guide the printer, I can see how the guide might be very helpful.
This printer uses HP printer technology.
It is wise to place a piece of paper to protect the rest of the page behind where you wish to print. When you press the button on the top of the printer to start the printing process, the printer can leave a bit of rainbow ink on the page. An easy solution, though, is to add a piece of copy paper to protect the page.
To make titles large enough, you will often need to print your title in sections. That isn't a huge problem because the light is spot-on as a guide.
Practice makes perfect but I'd suggest you print on a practice sheet before you print on your project to ensure you have the right font size.
I purchased my printer from eBay and it was $45 with free shipping. I also purchased replacement ink from an eBay seller.
You can print in various single colors or a rainbow of colors.
The ink is not waterproof, though it is water-resistant. If you are using it with watercolor, print last!
There are many lovely fonts but the word designs in the app can not be altered to make other titles (sadly). If there is a workaround for this, please share.
I hope you enjoy your printer as much as I'm enjoying mine.
This video was so helpful. Been eyeing this device for the longest. There has been a significant price drop and note I’m actually thinking I might pick one up.
Would love to see you revisit this craft and show us how to make our own designs and use them. And test the prints on other materials and other ribbon brands.
The ribbon is so cute!
That is soooo cool!! I think I know what I'm asking for, for my birthday lol. Thanks for sharing😊
It's on sale right now if your birthday is soon! haha :)
@@KarleyHall It's next month but hey never to early to shop 😂
Very clear instructions. Thanks. Can you use regular retail ribbons? would you please make a video of importing your own design.
Hello! How are you handling the ends of this ribbon? It doesn't burn well (turns black) but seems to fray easily.
My husboo bought that for me last year and a cricut maker 3. I can say I haven’t used it yet but charging it up to 🎊 🎉 thx for pushing me u intentionally 😊
Love my cricut 😂
I love this!! thank you for your video! how is the print quality though? have you tested it? like is it waterproof or water resistant? and what if you slide the printer too fast? how well does it print?
It’s not waterproof or really water resistant! So you will want to keep that in mind for projects. As for too fast- you’d have to run it pretty fast for it to have any issue. There is more of an issue of going to slow and not moving in a continuous motion. That’s why I don’t use the infinite print option and stop at 5x so I have more control :)
Thank you sooo much for this! I just purchased mine and my code is saying invalid! 😢 I was scared to do she strings and ribbons. Now I’m going to Michael’s to get some. 😊
From where we can buy these rulers for the ribbon I don’t see it online
Can you print any photos or pictures onto the ribbon with this from the internet?
does it work on silk ribbon?
Hey 😊 do you think it’s possible to make this on velvet ribbon? Have you tried? 😊
Would it work to make clothing tags? Will the design disappear if washed? Thank you!
Unfortunately it washes out.
Also, Karley, what's the advantage to the $150 model over the $116? I cannot really tell by the Amazon descriptions.
There is no difference! I bought the $115 from that exact seller!
@@KarleyHall Awesome! I just used your links to purchase the $115 printer, two ink cartridges, the ribbon guide and one roll of ribbon. (Purchase was actually made in my sister's business account, Melody Tenhoff) in case you're looking for it. I put the print guide, another roll of ribbon, and the magnetic mat in my own cart and will purchase those shortly. We are so excited to add this little guy to our business!

so cool ! is the printed ribbon waterproof ? can the ribbon be washed after printing ? thanks 💗
Unfortunately, it is not. It washes right out.
@@KarleyHall oohh that kills my idea of using it to make labels for clothing 😅 but thank u so much for the fast response 💗💗💗
How do you pick the ribbon or washi tape width?
In the app? You can’t change the canvas size, so you’ll just want to make sure your image is thinner to accommodate thinner ribbons or tapes.
Karley, what about ink cartridges? I checked on Amazon, but I'm not sure which cartridge is correct. Could you please check the cartridge in your little printer and give us the model number for the ink cartridge? 😃 Thanks!!
Oh! Yes! Thanks for asking! I will add the link in my video description. The cartridge reads HI-LX Tri Color 3UB55A.
Does the ink stay if the ribbons are washed?
No it does not ☹️
Can you write own message on ribbon
Yes! I designed and chose my own message for this video.
