Re: L1800 Converted DTF Printer

<t>Hi, In my experience it's better than DTG, no need to pretreat for darks, you can decorate a lot more materials and if a print messes up, it's only the media thats no good and not the garment like DTG. <br/>
<br/>
The downside compared to DTG is that you can't print a soft edge like DTG although ...

Re: DTF- What do we think? Game changer or red herring?

<t>My experience is that ink opacity is really good, it almost impossible tell the difference between a DTF print and a plastisol transfer even white, we do both. <br/>

Re: Office Colour laser printer

Thanks, I did actually go for a brother in the end although a slightly different model its a HL-L8260CDW, paid £153 + VAT from Printerland and they are offering £100 cashback, full set of compatables can be had for £37, that'll do for me.
