Thank you for creating these videos. I believe I must start recording my own journey with that particular printer. Your review has been the most honest review I've seen about this particular printer. It answered a lot of questions that I've had. So thank you again for making this video.
I just ordered this printer. You really did a nice, informative review. It’s great that you’ve already gotten a few other owners commenting, because as you said, there isn’t a lot of info out there. Hopefully we can support each other when issues arise. About the software, I own a later version of this. I think mine is 10.2 or something. All of the software installs require a USB dongle, so I’m pretty sure it is legit. The issue, as Chitowntexan pointed out, is that it does not work on windows 11. At least mine won’t. I use my older laptop and haven’t updated past windows 10. I DID NOT know that I had to make a choice between the UV ink or the DTF ink. Like you, I’ll use this for small wares. Thanks again and good luck with your printer and channel.
The DTG rip program isnt bootleg. That dongle or thumb drive is the key lock. Most, if not every rip program has them to prevent bootleging. Also, dont feel bad, every printer I've gotten from China has horrible install instructions. Also, i don't know of any dtf, dtg, or uvdtf printers that can sit and not be used without having some issues. The humidity needs to be between 40 and 60 %. Maybe its 40 to 80%. Cant remember. Its not going to ruin your machine, itll jjst affect the prints, inks, and so on. Basically, it just causes more maintenance and more of a headache.
I did a lot of research on DTF printers and ended up purchasing this one after seeing your video. I'm in the states and just received it this past Saturday (took a little over 3 months!) but I have not cracked open the crate yet. I need to build another platform/desk, first that can hold it but hopefully this is a quick setup and the learning curve isn't too steep. Just wanted to say "thank you" for the informative video! :)
I just ordered a UV printer from Alibaba as well. I’m leaning, but I think the humidity has to do with static interfering with the ink initially laying on whatever surface you’re printing on. Unless you’re getting zapped when touching doorknobs and stuff, you probably don’t need a humidifier.
I really loved your video I love your honesty . I'm thinking of getting this exact printer from AliExpress but I'm afraid it won't work for I want it for. I'm planning to print on watch straps but I'm still not sure if would work. Is it possible to give it a try and let us know if it can print on Silicone and if it would chip off? Thank you and keep going 💪🏽
Based on what you said, I think you confirmed something for me. If we can just change the DTF Ink from the UVDTF ink, this machine can double as A DTF printer to create dtf films to print on clothes. And since it has a deeply new on it, we should be able to maybe weekly, monthly swap out the inks, do a deep clean and then print with regular dtf My only question or concern is, can you turn off the uv light when it's printing? Or must the uv light be on all the time? That's the only difference it would be.
Yes, that was my concern too that the UV lights would stay on but maybe it doesn't really affect it since it won't be UV ink. I haven't seen a way to turn off the UV lights so not sure if it's possible.
I've had mine close to a year & was able to get 2 prints before windows update stopped recognizing the software. I just purchased Acrorip 10.7 english version hoping it works 🙏🏽
I got the same printer, and thanx for making this videos. 🥰 What is the name for the paper you bought? And what colour settings do you use? Im having a hard time finding the right settings, and your prints looks very good. ❤
I purchased one but not sure where to find the ink as the manufacture sent it after the machine and it takes 2-3 weeks. Where do I find the ink replacements ??
If its the same printer you can just search for "UVDTF INK" has to say UV because they also make just DTF ink. You can find it in Alibaba, Amazon or purchase from companies like Procolored.
If you buy the no brand ink like from alibaba it's not much. A set can be around $100 or less. But based on experience the you shouldn't go cheap on the white ink. I learned the hard way that quality matter. Cheap ones can be very water down and not come out so bright. So I currently purchase my white ink from Procolored it's like $180 for a big bottle 😵💫 but I buy the colors from alibaba because I never had an issue with the colored inks.
Haven't tried printing directly on uneven surfaces but based on my experience I don't think it will work. But you CAN print out a UvDtf sticker and just apply it on the controller
Hello!! First place congratulations for the videos!! I have the same machine since three weeks a go, and i have a serious problem with the impressions. When i send the document, like an A4 with images, the machine doesn´t respect the size of the document and print in a smaller size. But this only happens in the x axis.... I mean, the size of the A4 is 21 x 29,7 cm but the machine prints 19 x 29,7, and obviously affects all the images contained. Did you have the same problem anytime? Can you help me please?? Thanks!!
I measured the actual flatbed which in reality is a little different than the A4 or A3 depending on the printer you have. When I measured the flatbed I made sure to convert everything to mm not cm since that's what the program uses. I do all my Designs in Canva and I have a page project set with my flatbed measurement and use the same one for all my designs. Since I set it up like that I never had an issue with difference in print size. I hope that explain it.
My biggest issue was also figuring out the correct location of where it was printing. I made one file in canva that's the size of the printer flatbed and that's the file I always use for all my printing images and I keep the same measurements on the printer so that the imagines come out the size I want them to be. I am working on another video on measurements and adjustments on prints, stay tune.

Thank you! And yes go for it 🥰🥰 the more information on this printer the better.

Great video! I had a Suntrix-brand Chinese UV printer, and the quality and service are good.
The DTG rip program isnt bootleg. That dongle or thumb drive is the key lock. Most, if not every rip program has them to prevent bootleging.
Also, dont feel bad, every printer I've gotten from China has horrible install instructions. Also, i don't know of any dtf, dtg, or uvdtf printers that can sit and not be used without having some issues.
The humidity needs to be between 40 and 60 %. Maybe its 40 to 80%. Cant remember. Its not going to ruin your machine, itll jjst affect the prints, inks, and so on. Basically, it just causes more maintenance and more of a headache.
Thank you so much for this review, very helpful and I've subbed. xx

Thanks for the tip! I haven't added one since its been so humid in Okinawa anyways 😅.
Thanks for this great video. Please can you do a detailed video on the program? How to use it
Sure I can work on a software video next!
I really loved your video
I love your honesty .

I think it's so cool that you're in Japan!
Thank you! I am definitely enjoying my time here 😁
LOVE THE HONEST REVIEW.
🥰
Thank you 😊
Hi! Where did you get your rolls, the ones that worked well? I mean what vendor from Alibaba?
Name and Link for the rolls is on the video description 😁.
Your videos have been great! I have the same printer and I’m having problems with images printing elongated and the start point on the flatbed :/

@@trinidadmitchell1221 what is your plan for the white under base if you did that? Have you considered that? Just curious
I've had mine close to a year & was able to get 2 prints before windows update stopped recognizing the software. I just purchased Acrorip 10.7 english version hoping it works 🙏🏽
Yes, why I have avoided any updates lol! Trying to hold off on buying the real software version till I have to 😅
@DigitalArtMundo Too late. I already purchased lol!! 🤞🏽 I hope it works like it did prior to the update
Can i know what brand of uv printer did u bought, really appriciate the reply
I bought it directly from the manufacturer so it's not branded. The link is in the video description 😁
I got the same printer, and thanx for making this videos. 🥰 What is the name for the paper you bought? And what colour settings do you use? Im having a hard time finding the right settings, and your prints looks very good. ❤
No problem send me a message on Instagram. I can send you screenshot of my settings.
have you done tumblers? also do you get out of paper error?
Yes! I have done many tumblers now. After you get the hang of it, it's easy.
I haven't had any paper errors so far.
same issue with the paper to me
Looking beauty❤❤❤
I purchased one but not sure where to find the ink as the manufacture sent it after the machine and it takes 2-3 weeks. Where do I find the ink replacements ??
If its the same printer you can just search for "UVDTF INK" has to say UV because they also make just DTF ink.
You can find it in Alibaba, Amazon or purchase from companies like Procolored.
@@DigitalArtMundo thank you 😊
I would imagine that most of your negative points about the "Maintenance" would apply to most UV printers, don't you think?
Yes, probably. I even hear it's the same for DTG Printers
I got my printer. I'm setting it up. What paper did you buy? Did you find any other videos to help set up? Thanks
Yes I found a couple helpful videos. I am going to send you the links today.
Also the paper brand is ZUNSUN UVDTF Film
Can you help me aboout setting Software I'm trying and it doesn't work if you have some Videos or someting please
Hello, a question and on the part of the inks, are they inexpensive if it yields or not?
If you buy the no brand ink like from alibaba it's not much. A set can be around $100 or less. But based on experience the you shouldn't go cheap on the white ink. I learned the hard way that quality matter. Cheap ones can be very water down and not come out so bright. So I currently purchase my white ink from Procolored it's like $180 for a big bottle 😵💫 but I buy the colors from alibaba because I never had an issue with the colored inks.
What is the price of the printer please?
Can you print on itema like game controllers with uneven surfaces ?
Haven't tried printing directly on uneven surfaces but based on my experience I don't think it will work. But you CAN print out a UvDtf sticker and just apply it on the controller
