Doesn't that conversion (like the majority of them) only do white (or light) tshirts as they don't print white?

it says "White ink ready but sold as basic CMYK"

I'd love a DTG but a proper one with full white support (there is a white ink conversion - www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301063282922 one on currently) but I really don't have the couple of k necessary for even a proper second hand one.

I think its to dissuade postage or couriers. Or at least I hope so, for that kinda cash I'd want it delivered in person, by horse carriage. Lifted in personally and set up. With two days training and dinner.

That looks cheap, I always thought they were more, mind it looks like it only prints on white and not dark t.shirts, mind you I could be wrong
