You inspired me to bite the bullet. My wife and I have pretty much started dtf when you you started with the 8550. I somehow missed the L1800 upgrade because I definitely would have done that too!!I’m looking forward for the new printer to come in. Epson has been good to us and we have been really good to them. Four printers later, but I’m ready to step it up. Thanks again for the video and inspiration.
So nice! I need DTF to get basic crafter friendly lol 😝 Someone is going to make bank when they figure out how to make white toner of any sort low maintenance. Can’t wait to see what you make with the Pro A3!
Yes you have to know how to work the printer, a lot of issues are user end but gets blamed on procolored, started with the L1800 and now have this printer also…be careful that print head doesn’t strike film as it could scratch it and will have to be replaced.
Not too loud. When I leave the room, I can faintly hear it in the next room over with the door open. If I have the shaker and oven on, the machines hums…but the flapper hitting the paper makes the most noise of the entire setup. It doesn’t bother me and closing the door would definitely block most of the sound.
How would you handle maintenance care/issues if you were to go out of town/vacation? Thats my only concern, and I wish they had automatic maintenance like sublimation printers
I've gone on several trips (up 2 weeks) and I've had no major issues. I've only have to run a few print head cleanings before printing. They have a coating that you can put under the printhead to keep it moist.
Hello, it seems like you have everything I would like to get lol. I am glad you got this printer because I just bought this and hope to learn from you. How has it been going so far?
Awesome, thank you. I have been trying to decide between this and the one from custom breations. But having 220 was holding me back. Must be a typo from china
Hi Patrice. Could you tell me if the Procolored ProRip software has the ability to que multiple prints? Also, have you tried printing to this printer with any other Rip Software like Cadlink, AcroRip or EKprint studio?
I ordered prints from a local person to me, and after the first wash the print cracked. Do these crack with any wash setting? I know some say cool wash only but if you don't do they crack?
My prints have never cracked. I have shirts over 2 years old using DTF and they still look like they were pressed yesterday. It’s possibly, they weren’t cured correctly…or maybe DTF wasn’t used. There shouldn’t be cracking.
I’m soooo stressed out with this I got it to print and now it’s not printing 😩😩 it’s once I put RIP it saids completed but nothing prints . 😢 and no answer from them … any advice I’ve already reinstalled the software
do you have this printer? make sure that you have space on the computer. also, check the printer management software. it will tell you why the printer isn't printing.
Really enjoyed your video. But I’m going to leave it to professionals like yourself. Which is the reason for my comment. How do I contact you about making transfer for me
AWESOME ❤. I am happy for you. I was looking my eyes out…. I would have called my hubby to set it up 😅. Keep up the good work and i would love to see more dtf and uv printing videos. 😊
HI! I just received my printer and am having a heck of a time. The start up software is all in another language. I noticed yours was in English, do you think you could talk me through changing the language on mine?
@@jessicaipes6982 I ended up getting the Procolored pro. I’ve had a few issues with shipping, but customer service has been very responsive and helpful. The error was made here in New Jersey not in China where the actual printer came from. I ordered the shaker that came from New Jersey and they messed up and sent an oven instead. I’m now feeling a little intimidated with the software installment, hoping to find a video that will walk me through it.
So, the converted ones are lot of work compared with this one right? Is better then to save and get one of these and not spend extra time with the others
I'm excited about this! I've been loving using DTF transfers I've purchased- they're so easy to "press and play!" I love my et8550 I converted for sublimation- incredible quality and it just works! Super interested to have a DTF version of it without paying like 10,000+ for a huge dtf printer!
hey i love printers too, i have been doing my research on dtf and uv printers but i was timid, but after seeing your videos its giving me confidence. the other printer am researching is wide format eco solvent
@CraftableThings I love watching and learning about crafting. I just end up wanting everything, and I know I will be retiring soon, then moving to my forever home. Just thinking about moving my craft supplies has my anxiety crying
Does this printer have the printhead strike protection or suction vents to keep the film flat and away from printer? Trying to decide on this brand or another.
What a beautiful and awesome beast of a printer!!! I'm so excited for you and look forward to seeing more creations😍
Thanks, Mar Bear!!
Hope you are enjoying your edification in Vegas❣️Thanks for sharing. This is going to be good
Hey Allaina!! Thank you so much for always supporting 💕

You are going to love this! Congratulations on the upgrade!
how did the transfers hold up from the 8550
On the roller heads, you should put some googly eyes to the screw heads. :) Great video.
Oh my GOODNESS!
That panda face made me smile!!!!😃
Just too cute!!!
Hahahaha! It is cute.
Well, explain.excelente demonstration..
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much for creating this video. You are awesome!!!!!

I agree! Thanks sooooo much for watching, Bree 💕💕💕
sure hope you all have proper ventilation and air filtration and haven't been breathing in that white chemical powder
Great video. I'm looking at getting a DTF still on the fence. How has this one held up over the last 6 months?
And another one💪🏾
Thanks for watching, Gnomie 💕
Thank you for this video
merci beaucoup, I just need videos like this for be sure of my invest... You have the powder shaker? its ok ? not too noisy ?
Yes you have to know how to work the printer, a lot of issues are user end but gets blamed on procolored, started with the L1800 and now have this printer also…be careful that print head doesn’t strike film as it could scratch it and will have to be replaced.
Hi how much noise is the machine giving off while running the whole process? when you close the door to the room can is it still loud?
Not too loud. When I leave the room, I can faintly hear it in the next room over with the door open. If I have the shaker and oven on, the machines hums…but the flapper hitting the paper makes the most noise of the entire setup. It doesn’t bother me and closing the door would definitely block most of the sound.
Great review!
Can you print gold/metallic stickers with this machine?
what's the longest you can let it sit now without printing?
I've left hit up to 2 weeks without printing.
you are smart
I love your videos! How do I get it to only print white on the words of an image not a big square around frame? I’m making koozies.
How would you handle maintenance care/issues if you were to go out of town/vacation? Thats my only concern, and I wish they had automatic maintenance like sublimation printers
I've gone on several trips (up 2 weeks) and I've had no major issues. I've only have to run a few print head cleanings before printing. They have a coating that you can put under the printhead to keep it moist.
Can you tell me more about the coating. I’m totally new to dtf.
Can you please make wash test video using their inks ?
what is the biggest size you can print with that printer? Please
Hi my name is Grace and I’m dipping into the dtf world. Do you mind sharing what’s a good ink to use?
Thank you for the information. Can this printer replace the sawgrass printer used for mugs etc
no, this wouldn't replace the sawgrass. this is a different print method.
How are you doing with this printer? I’m thinking of purchasing one.
Hello, it seems like you have everything I would like to get lol. I am glad you got this printer because I just bought this and hope to learn from you. How has it been going so far?
how is going when you use it?
If you don’t mind me asking where did you purchase yours and the price. I’m a professional artist and I plan on putting my art on t-shirts
Can u use digital factory rip software with this printer?
Yes
and do you like it better than the L 1800 procolored? Mine stopped working after 3 months of use and only 178 prints.
What was the issue that caused it to stop
Be good for selling transfers too
Hello i have been watching your videos have do i make a purchase with you
Hello, can you share the link of exactly which one you are using? Have you tried the single print head?
yes. both links are listed in the description. Thanks for watching!
Is this printer 110v or 220? On the site it says 220 but the plug looks like it’s standard
This one is 110
Awesome, thank you. I have been trying to decide between this and the one from custom breations. But having 220 was holding me back. Must be a typo from china
Hi Patrice. Could you tell me if the Procolored ProRip software has the ability to que multiple prints? Also, have you tried printing to this printer with any other Rip Software like Cadlink, AcroRip or EKprint studio?
I haven't tried the RIIP software with the printer and yes, you can que multiple prints.
Price???
Hi, how did you get in contact with procolored I’m having trouble with my software but can’t find no contact info.

hefty price it is a true investment
I’m soooo stressed out with this I got it to print and now it’s not printing 😩😩 it’s once I put RIP it saids completed but nothing prints . 😢 and no answer from them … any advice I’ve already reinstalled the software
do you have this printer? make sure that you have space on the computer. also, check the printer management software. it will tell you why the printer isn't printing.
If your gonna make fast business using these desktop printers you have to realize that they are not efficient in speed.
Really enjoyed your video. But I’m going to leave it to professionals like yourself. Which is the reason for my comment. How do I contact you about making transfer for me
Is this printer still working good? Honest opinion plz
AWESOME ❤. I am happy for you. I was looking my eyes out…. I would have called my hubby to set it up 😅.
Keep up the good work and i would love to see more dtf and uv printing videos. 😊
Thank you! 🤗
Excellent video! I am feeling this bad boy! Love all the features and ease of access to everything.
Any updates? Are you having any issues after almost a year of using it?
Good Saturday afternoon, Patrice!!!
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!!!
🌹🌹🌹♥️
Thanks for watching 💕
Ok, Miss Patrice, you are a trusted agent...lol Do you still recommend the printer after a year? How is the maintenance compared to the 1800?
How often are you refilling the white cartridges? In general...I know it will vary based on what's being printed.
How long have you had it for so far? Any updates?
always love when you unbox a new product and that you show us the good bad the ugly
Thanks so much for watching 💕
Does their software work with MAC? or you say you can use any other RIP software...is there another you recommend?
PCs only. I’ve heard of RIP softwares for MACS. However, I’ve never used one on my Mac
but i am planning on buying this from china, what are your views?
Soooooo jealous 😭
Hi, Angle B Designs!
Have a lovely weekend.
Hey Angel Boo!!! We need to hit Charles up. I love it! 💕
HI! I just received my printer and am having a heck of a time. The start up software is all in another language. I noticed yours was in English, do you think you could talk me through changing the language on mine?
Let them know that you need it in English. I didn’t have to change it to English. They might have it online.
Do you have a video of the Uninet 1000? I’m between this set up and Uninet. Thanks!
Same!

Does this one also need daily maintenance? What happens when you go on vacation?
Definitely need to know. I don’t want to have to shake my machine everyday
Oh Panda Boo did his thing! Looks great and congratulations Patrice!
Tracey
Thanks so much, Tracey 💕
Yup, Sam and his Clang go to lunch anytime they cant fix anything. Ive been on skype with them and they leave me on read :(

What is the power supply for the printer and shaker oven combo? Are they 120V each? Do you know the amp draw?
I hope so, because that has been me for the past month. Trying to get it back up and going.
Thank you, TH-cam. My bank account is mad that I am getting to watch a new toy replay
Hahahahahahahahahaha! Thanks for watching 💕

I have been going back and forth with them via WhatsApp and Skype.
