- Let's dive deeper into DTF printing and take a look at DTF printer setup and maintenance. I am setting up the DTF Station Prestige A4 Printer however other printers of this type would be similar. See how to add ink, how to load the film, and even how to remove a clog. I go in-depth into daily maintenance, however, there are other maintenance tasks with this printer. Use this video to decide whether a DTF printer is right for you or to setup a printer you already purchased.

I got this printer a couple of months ago and I love it. I'm an older lady with only a moderate amount of experience with printers and I was able to follow the Prestige setup videos with no problem. Once everything was set up it has been pretty much smooth sailing. I had some initial questions and used their slack app and got pretty quick help (there is a time zone issue as I think they may be answering from another country) but they are very helpful. The only drawback for this printer is the smaller size of the print but I knew that when I purchased.
Great to hear!
This is the best video on DTF printer setup and maintenance. Prestige should use this video on their website 👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks!
I have the Prestige R A3+ DTF printer. I love the prints that come off they are vivid and beautiful. Mine has the shaker box and dring unit all in one.
Oh that is nice!!
Whew. I'm exhausted. Probably not for me. Video was very informative.
YEP! It is a ton of work!
Sure seems like a mountain of effort and safety concern for hobby crafting. I have seen custom DTF printing services for as low as $0.03 per square inch and they cover all the headaches.
Do I understand that you run this daily? Can never skip.
You do not have to run daily but you have to do the daily maintenance IF you run it. You should run it regularly though!
Good information
Thank you!
T,hanks to you & Cori, showed me way to much work, & $.
HA! That is what we are here for!
😂 This was good information and enjoyed it took the good work🎉🎉🎉
Great video! Is it possible to run the Rip software using Boot Camp Windows on a Mac?
I have heard of people doing that!
Hello, I have a question about the Siser Juliet Vinyl cutter. I currently have a Cameo 4 and use that. I work in small detail and often cut paint mask with the Cameo. One thing the Cameo cannot do it cut a prefect round circle. I really want to buy the Siser but if it will not cut a circle, will have to pass on it. I'm talking about a 20mm Circle size. Have you cut small circles in this size range with the Siser? Thanks.
Yes you can cut those with a Siser. You should be able to cut them with a Silhouette though. Might try some troubleshooting with them to see what the issue is.
Hi, I have the same printer and would like to know if you ever got banding or lines in your print. After many head clean I’m still getting lines. Any tips to fix this issue?
I would print a nozzle check page. Do you have missing segments? I would assume so. If you do, run through the cleaning cycles and pull ink through your damps/waste ink tank. If you don't have missing segments it could be an alignment issue. I would probably contact DTF Station or get on their Slack channel.
Just got this printer and havent used it yet. It was already set up by the company who sold it, with inks already filled. Waiting for the rip software code from them before using. Is it ok to sit for a few days with the inks? Would i still need to do daily maintenance while it isn't in use? They mentioned leaving ink caps almost completely loose to let air in but not sure why. Thanks
It should have come with cleaner in the wells already so you should be okay. It may take you a while to get it working once you can print.
Hello, Can we print images for t-shirts that are XL in size for exemple, with the A4 printer ? Thanks
Yep. It will print as long as you want so it will work with a design that is not over about 8 inches tall.
I’m looking to see to purchase a dtf printer how wide do this one prints?
This prints about 8 inches wide or so and as long as you want.
Ive only had mine for 6 weeks. It wont stop double printing. I cleaned the head and changed the motherboard. Still wont stop doubling. Any suggestions on how i can fix this.
I would contact their customer care as it is really good!
@AngieHolden they haven't replied too me in 6 days. Been emailing back and forth.
Can you reuse waste tank ink? What’s the reason why not? Is it bc it has mix ink?
What’s the next size dtf printer? What’s the brand name please? Thanks
You cannot reuse ink in the waste tank. It would be mixed. There are a variety of DTF station printers in a variety of sizes.
Is it durable like the A3 DTF printers
Seems to be!
Never for me.
Definitely okay to feel that way!
My printer is not printing
I would contact DTF station.
Not for me. Way to much work with the maintenance
It definitely is!
Your work is beautiful! Curious about DTF printing for enhanced customization? @fastdtftransfer
