Yep agree any printer that runs ink will be expensive to run and the printer will not last as long as a CMYK printer we run large format and our CMYK 60” runs and runs for years but running the same printer with either silver or white and it always takes more maintenance and parts replacement you will lean by experience we started 30 years ago so have had many many over the years but I would stay away from Epson we now only run Mimaki and Roland large format printers they are much more reliable long term you can’t run a business if your printers are down. Good video honey. 🥰
Hello sis, I'm in the same predicament with my l1800. I'm done with these desktop printers for dtf. I would suggest getting a dtg printers the does dtf. They having great success having the best of both worlds. The same ink that they use for dtg printers are the very same inks they use to make dtf. The two I would suggest are omniprint and epson f21oo. Good luck.
th-cam.com/users/shortszxfSDfTuD5w I think the XP 15000 is workable, it just needs more knowledge and detailed oriented skill. The video shows this Epson can be a success.
Is this printer good for just simple Heat Transfer Paper onto Tshirts ? Ive just pirchased this printer. I dont think i will be converting it to DTF though. It just seems to complicated with too many issues
I bought an epson 1400 that was clogged from sitting for 5 years. I tried everything short of pulling the print head. Finally after a lot of frustration I bought a product called Magic Bullet Print head solution. I ran 1ml of magic bullet through each color and let it sit for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes you push another 1ml through and BOOOM she was back up and running. Try Magic Bullet if you get a clog. Most epson printers are finicky. I killed off a $600 epson R3000. It would print awesome but always clog. If you can find yourself and epson 1400 I recommend that as I have been running that for well over a month. I’ve actually left it sit with the carts in it for a few days without printing. I just ran a head cleaning and I was good to go!
Great info, I converted a xp15000 for sublimation and I flashed the firmware to run chipless for refillable cartridges and was thinking about a cis but now I will stick to the refillable cartridges. I hope you were able to get a good DTF printer.
Try using the ink on your sublimation printer, people are doing that, they just aren't using white. Some others are replacing the black with white and running the film through twice
That’s what I’m looking for info on. If I can just use my et-15000 with my sublimation ink. If not I’ll just forego this for now until I can afford and have space for another printer
@@thatguyfromca I have to put a different type of ink in? I already use my ET-15000 for sublimation so it’s already Sublimation ink in there. I can print on DTF with that? I’ve been looking for videos that show this but can’t find any😮💨. I saw somewhere that you could use sublimation ink with this process but just can’t find any confirming videos for it.
Good Vid!! I have the xp-15000 printer. Do you have issues with getting the colors to come out correctly? I’ve turned down my percentages to 15 and it’s better BUT I still can’t get it to work consistently. Do you have that issue, if so how did/do you correct it?
Worst investment for me…sis how were you able to install the chipless software I’m having the same damnnnn issue and more I’m about ready to have the printer meet my HAMMER
I just did the same with my epson. I flooded it and got error code 032001. I didn’t think they would replace it because of the white ink all inside it. I haven’t even tryed. They exchanged yours with no questions even with the front roller out. Mine is only a month old purchased from dell. Please let me know if I should try and return it????
my sublimation 7210 printer be acting crazy like that it wouldn't take the sub paper.. did you try waiting to feed the film through like let the rollers roll first then feed it. im just now about to convert my xp 15000 lord pray for me lol
I converted an epson xp15000 by watching a video. Then I went with chipless firmware and ink cartriges. Lastly I installed cadlink for a rip software. Now nothing is printing. No ink is coming out at all. I tried doing head cleaning, print head cartridge checks and even tried printing a purging sheet. Still no ink. Ideas?
Everytime you received a replacement xp-15000 did you have to repurchase the chipless firmware? Or were you able to use the recovery code since it was the same model printer?
Just wondering, half way there with my XP15000, I have successfully installed software for it to be chipless. Already have ciss ink system that works great. I do custom shirt with htv and ink jet print vinyl for pictures. It’s really complicated doing all the pieces in htv when someone wants a color full design. Like you said in your video. I just want something that I can print out and put on. Is there a certain program that I will need to print with and which color should I use for the white. Also can you print photos of people with it. I do a lot of funeral shirts. The quality of dark garment ink jet vinyl is really starting to suck. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Darn back to square one. Any advice for fuse to check on xp 15000 flooded my printer trying to get the white to work correctly. I can turn it on no error codes. If I try to print check nozzles I get error code 031002 which is printhead error. If I do change cartridges I get error code 031005. Which is also printhead error or main board error. I want to just cry. Brand new printer bought on payments. lol haven’t even made a payment yet. Will be a while before I can continue on my dtf journey. Please if anyone has any advice throw it my way. Oh and I tryed to find a print head for it . Lol 240.00 is the only one I could find. I guess I should look at the bright side. It still powers on. 😩
My white ink is recently not showing up at all for some reason on my XP15000, and I've tried cleaning it with DTF cleaning liquid but it doesn't seem to work. Even put in new cartridges. What I did was put a few drops of DTF liquid into the printhead, swab it, clean it up, and then proceed. Is there a step I am missing? It has been pulling my hair out. Thank you.l
Did you tell Epson you used aftermarket inks before they gave you a replacement? And did you have to send the bad printer to them? Never thought they would actually replace a printer when modifying it the way we do for DTF.
Hi, I was wondering if you can help me. I have the Epson 15,000 and I have the Catling software but when I try to print nothing is happening. I have heard from someone I need a driver? I’m not sure if that might be true, she said it’s a software. Hope you can help me!

What I see here is there are 2 types of symptoms. Printer errors and human errors. Some people were able to convert Epson printers successfully. Those are the ones who are into computers and hardware, software, etc. The rest are just average Joe/Joan the Plumers who know nothing about computers. This is where the problem starts. Another thing is the Epson in particular XP 15000 were never designed to print DTF (film/transfers). Things are possible and doable but there has to be know how talent. My investigation also has to do with some people are struggling with all sorts of problems like inks, flooding, not printing this color or that color. When in fact one of the culprits is the print head. A company in India successfully converted some Epson printers like Epson L8050 to DTF successfully, the trick they say is the printhead. They replaced that and they are having great success.
HI i installed my cartridges on a new epson xp15000 that had been converted but immediately got an error ink cartridges not installed properly and shows no ink levels any suggestions ? THANKS!
I'm a newbie who just converted an xp 15000. I'm using EKprint and I can't get it to print from the rear feed. It keeps saying the cassette is out of paper. Any advice????
Have to set the setting on the printer it’s self not just on print program . On front of your printer go to the settings, then printer settings, then paper source settings, then paper setup, then arrow down to rear paper feed
I did just do a test and I can print on film from outside of AcroRip without the paper jam issue. It’s only printing within the software I have issues. I have emailed them and hoping they can either fix the issue or refund the money as it’s not as compatible as they say it is. I don’t see any other logical solution if the film print fine outside of it.
Gurlllll.. I absolutely love how you KEEP IT REAL! your amazing! and i love to hear you sing! amazing! keep it up!
Thank you for this! This is the video I've been looking for. So many people don't keep it real. YOU MY FRIEND ARE REAL. Thank you so much.
Your helping me to get the guts to do my videos! THANK YOU!
Thank you, I got my printer for Christmas. I been researching all the things I have to do to convert this printer, but your video helped, a lot.
Thank you I'm glad I could help and I really appreciate you watching and good luck 😁
I love you for this video, everything you mention has happened. Wasting money!! Thank you for this video
Thank you, will not be making the same mistake, you’ve saved me a lot of money. Good luck!
I was about to jump on a Epson xp 15000. I am glad found your video. I just think like you said technology is a bit new
still Thank you.
Wow.. you will bounce back! 😎

@@FayzoFilms hey i just ran cross your page & would like to did u convert my printer into a dtf
Lmbo i so agree don't have time for all that. so happy I found your video before I got one.
Also.....
Glad to see ya. I was just wondering yesterday how come I haven't see you pop up in a while
Good looking out on this vid, I was looking into getting one

Thx for the honesty. I just stumbled on you doing dtf last week. I’m not that computer tinker’r so I better not try.
YES!!
I bought my printer back in March and haven't used it yet, so I definitely need to be on this journey too
My printer had the same problem with the rear feeder,you need to set the source on the printer sceen and on your pc
Time consuming! doing it this way is less consuming a quicker turn around to make more loot! I waited tables for 20 years! lol ya feel me!😎
Great vid love DTF
Thank you so much!
So it definitely has to be an Acro problem at least for me. I downloaded the demo for EkPrint and it prints just fine. No paper jam no nothing.
That's good info what version of acro was giving you problems in the xp15000 if you answer I subscribe :)
If you put masking tape covering the entire glossy side it will also read and print! a hack I figured out! lol

I just bought a 1400 for $200
Did you buy Epson 1400 new? This model has been discontinued long ago. Is the 1400 the Stylus mode?
@@HelmetVangathe poster clearly said they bought the 1400 clogged… MEANING it wasnt new 🤦🏾♂️
Dang. Wish I would've saw this before buying this xp-15000. I haven't converted it yet though.
You may have better luck than me

It could be the waste tank host stock on the feeder gears
Thank you for sharing your journey.
Thank you so much for saving me from buying this printer. I don't want the problems and stress. Too much todo with the EP 15000.
What Epson printer did you buy in the end to make it work effortless ?
Try using the ink on your sublimation printer, people are doing that, they just aren't using white. Some others are replacing the black with white and running the film through twice
How or what is the method of replacing the black with the white and running it through twice?
That’s what I’m looking for info on. If I can just use my et-15000 with my sublimation ink. If not I’ll just forego this for now until I can afford and have space for another printer
@@SoMixedUp You can use your printer with sub ink. You just have to clean out the original ink first
@@thatguyfromca I have to put a different type of ink in? I already use my ET-15000 for sublimation so it’s already Sublimation ink in there.
I can print on DTF with that?
I’ve been looking for videos that show this but can’t find any😮💨. I saw somewhere that you could use sublimation ink with this process but just can’t find any confirming videos for it.

How do you refill cartridges? Ty
Worst investment for me…sis how were you able to install the chipless software I’m having the same damnnnn issue and more I’m about ready to have the printer meet my HAMMER
Usually you can buy a chipless firmware online and you buy from a reputable place and install :)
did u get to work
Ok ok... Been pondering this printer for awhile... still jive 50/50 on pressing go on the purchase. Ya Digggg... SALUTE Keep Doing You
