Such an informative video….thank you! I just purchase an L1800, haven’t received it yet, but I was trying to find any and all info that will be helpful for when I get it and happen to run into issues. Please make more videos of any other issues you might come across and what you did to fix it, you explain everything so well. I was starting to get nervous about all the negative comments regarding this printer and how much people complain about the maintenance. One of my questions was whether it should stay on all the time and you’ve answered that. I’m excited but nervous about the whole set up.
I'm deep into DTF the issue with that line at the end of your print if your paper /film is to short or if your image is close to the edge it will smear u have to have at least an extra 1inch and a half or 2 inches so it stays in rollers and won't shift. I figured that out after multiple 13x19 prints success till the end I wasn't leaving enough the film wasn't stabled in rollers. Today I'm taking print head out of mine and cleaning it in ultrasonic cleaner. Then fun of dtf
Very good job with your video production. Hope you will do another video showing how you apply and cure the DTF powder. The powder handling and curing process is a major health concern for me.
Thank you! My biggest tip for applying and curing the DTF powder is to wear a respirator and keep a window open if possible. It helps with the ventilation and the respirator will help protect you from inhaling the powder. I can do a video on that!
thank you God bless you .I have the same problems, today i clean everything,then my software is different and very complicated but i going to find that line and started the used.Keep the good work and thanks again .SARAH'S YOU ARE THE BEST !!!!!
@@KristiRay70 I looked up on Google "color bar print test" and saved "the print guide: the color bar" image. I cut it off every print after it comes out, but I just use it to avoid lines.
@@rubyjuly740 You would have to put all 100 images on one sheet in the program. You'd have to adjust the page length to fit them all. However, I'm not sure how long of a continous page you can make.
Thank you! I'll definitely make a video on that if I have to change it out. What color percentages are you asking about? I want to make sure I understand your question so I can answer it
I WANT TO BUY ONE BUT TO CLEAN IT EVERY DAY LOL ANYWAY I HAVE A QUESTION DO I HAVE TO PURCHASE THE OVEN AS WELL AND THANK YOU FOR EXPLAINING ALL THE DETAILS. VERY HELPFUL:)
Hello, I just received my procolored. In need of windows laptop, Can I ask what you are using ? I own a mac and i know the program is not compatible. Im planning on doing my editing and other stuff on my mac then transferring over with a USB to my laptop. Thank you in advance. FYI your videos have been very informative, I've been watching all your videos for research purposes.
@@Foreverflores21 I'm using a YOGA 720-12IKB. It's an older laptop and I need to get a newer one, but it's the one I've been using for the time being. Thank you so much, I'm glad they're helpful for you!
@@carolhewett-fo8lq In my opinion, you have so much more freedom and opportunities with a dtf printer versus a sublimation printer. Once you get the maintenance down it's not as scary as it seems upfront.

@@owlbecrafty The maintenance seems scary at first, but once you get it down it's no big deal!

Thank you so much for sharing this information! This has been so helpful
Hello, can I ask where you got your color strip at the top of the page ?
@@KristiRay70 I looked up on Google "color bar print test" and saved "the print guide: the color bar" image. I cut it off every print after it comes out, but I just use it to avoid lines.
My printer won't continue to print.. how can you get it to print 100 big images Non-Stop?
@@rubyjuly740 You would have to put all 100 images on one sheet in the program. You'd have to adjust the page length to fit them all. However, I'm not sure how long of a continous page you can make.
@@sarahscreativeboutiquellc thank you
Love your video, so informative if you have to change out the printhead please do a video
Also can you screenshot your color % settings
Thank you! I'll definitely make a video on that if I have to change it out. What color percentages are you asking about? I want to make sure I understand your question so I can answer it
@@sarahscreativeboutiquellc my whites are dull, the settings are whites- 85% the colors are 65%, what do you recommend
@@ddeweypink I have mine set with the setting 100% white under any colored pixel.
@@ddeweypink I've actually found my ink settings and they are 68% for all colors. White is 70%

I'm glad the video has been helpful! Yes you will need the oven to be able to cure your prints.
@@sarahscreativeboutiquellc THANK YOU

Do have to pull from the waste tank too
I have only ever pulled from the waste ink when I set it up. Other than that I never pull ink from it and I haven't had any problems.
I haven’t had power since the hurricane I live near Galveston TX, I am so worried
I'm so sorry!! If you can possibly manually stir the ink that may help. I hope you get power soon!!❤️
Thank you me too…..
I'm between a sublimation and dtf. But scared about maintenance.
