How do you keep your shirts from cracking? Mine a rack after first wash, I have no clue what else to try, I’m stuck with this expensive printer and nothing seems to fix the cracks after wash, can’t even sell them like that.
That’s a beautiful orange heat press! I have a white 15x15, and a black with red and black accessories 8 in 1 that’s 12x15 heat press. I’m still learning all that I can because I don’t want to be messing up a lot of materials, or wasting time and money.
Love the info provided in your videos, your energy is always so great and inspiring! “You can use this on hard substrates, did you know that” haha love it! Thank you for this review, I am in the process of ordering my own, I am working on the premium bundle, such a great deal!
I recently purchased a White Toner printer and unfortunately, it has proven to be a significant disappointment. The product falls short of expectations, and I strongly advise against making a similar purchase. Not only has the printer failed to meet basic performance standards, but my attempts to initiate a return have also been met with challenges. It's disheartening to experience such issues, especially when investing time and money in a product. I am currently facing difficulties with the return process, and it seems like the company is evading responsibility. This adds another layer of frustration to an already unsatisfactory situation. In light of these issues, I caution others against purchasing this particular White Toner printer. It has proven to be a waste of both money and time, transfer won’t last even for 1 wash, no matter what technique you apply and the lack of cooperation in the return process only exacerbates the problem. I hope sharing this experience serves as a warning to potential buyers, and I encourage the company to address these issues promptly.
Very good video I have the oki 9541 I love it I have my machine I had it since november 2022 And with my pape I don't have to rub my paper together before putting it apart And the other thing that you said no maintenance I love that being I just had surgery and I can't walk for at least another 6 weeks the machine will be just sitting there... With all that said keep up the good work love your videos
@@brepalmer2736 to be honest I switched over to DTF. There was too many inconsistencies with my printer probably due to inconsistent temperature in my room. But yeah, I still have it but I never use it anymore
Love your videos! Very informative! You always have the cutest images. Do you create them yourself or is it purchased graphics? Definitely wanting to purchase this printer when the time is right. Can’t wait to see more videos.
That’s a pretty image. I think it’s a great investment so you can offer that quality of print to your customers. Hopefully, one day I’ll be able to get one. Thank you for teaching us so thoroughly. Does your bottom heat press platen have a silicone surface to hold the heat when you warm it up?
For some reason my Color design is transferring to the glue instead of the glue transferring to the paper. how long am I supposed to press the transfer. 310 for 30 sec. or 300 for 120 sec
Congratulations on your work, White Toner Printer, work as the photo shop, that you can put several images, just moving them from the destop, or you must print the images one by one you can tell me if you have any video teaching how to transfer several at once, on the same page thanks
Thank you so much for this video Katrina because I have watched only a few videos about white toner printers and it was a turn off for me and to be honest your video is the first video that have made me think twice about a future purchase of a white toner printer. I can't wait for you to do more videos on what else this white toner printer can do as well.👍🏽 I must say that you and your son crack me up every time y'all are on camera together and your facial expression was hilarious when you asked him was he going to wear the shirt today, LOL.🤣🤣🤣🤣 Enjoy the rest of your weekend.😉
Every time I use my icolor 560 I can never get the picture to come out on the othere paper so I can put it on this shirt I don't know if i'm sitting the heat right or what
🙌🏽🔥❤️🔥 First of all, you slayin your braids. Love the browns and your earrings. Ok so the transfer paper for the white toner? Is it the same as the easy Siser transfer ? I guess this toner printer will be a future purchase for right now anyways. Thank you Katrina. Happy New Year 🎊 🥂 ❤
Hi Katrina learned so much ftom your vidoes. Have you come up with a way to make larger prints since the software no longer have the rip option. Was disappointed because that was one of the main reasons why I purchased the Ricoma. They sent me longer paper but I'm still not able to do a 10x10. Any help would be appreciated. Stay blessed.
Thank you for this video. I have been having a problem with my transfers, they will not adhere correctly to the material! I have wasted so many transfers, what advice can you give?
White toner transfers? You have to have firm pressure when marrying the images. And it’s a cold peel at least mines are. Follow the instructions of the brand you’re using
I am new to DTF and I just bought my printer so I'm trying to soak up as much as I possibly can. Thank you for very informative videos! I have one question. The A/b sheets are comparable to using the white powder, is that correct? I want to be sure I understand this right. Seems like a game changer!
Hello, I just got a siser for Christmas and want to do sublimation. Is it true that I can use a heat transfer paper or do I need to buy a new printer. I have been watching some of your videos, your a very good teacher. Thank you.
Idk about your printer, but mine said my Yellow was out, so I ordered a yellow cartridge ($220 + $70 shipping) because the printer said that was the only color depleted. Mind you if you have an empty color the printer won’t let you print at all. So, once the cartridge came I was hype because I thought I was about to start printing again. Why I start up the printer and after it heats up, it tells me my Magenta is out 😡. Now I’m pissed because I’m like why didn’t it say both colors were out and I would’ve brought both colors. So I call RICOMA and tell them the problem and they said there’s nothing they can do I have to order the magenta and pay for shipping again. I’m like this is bull because why should I have to pay for shipping again when it’s your faulty machine. I was so mad I just hung up and told them I was going to make a review about this printer and it’s definitely not a good review. Yes everything you said is somewhat true, but for larger shirts this printer sucks. It only prints 8.5x11 that splitting the image sucks ass because regardless of what you do, you can still see the split line. I know you mean well but this was literally the worst investment I’ve ever made. The heat press is even worse. You can’t even put firm pressure because if you tighten it to much it won’t stay closed. I’m sorry for going off on your post, but I had to vent. Stupid printer uses ink even if you’re not using the printer. Maybe it’s my fault because I thought if I leave the printer on and let it cycle the ink wouldn’t dry out, but what it’s really doing is burning in on nothing. Maybe I just have a bad machine. Oh and I brought mine around the same time you brought yours. I remember seeing your first videos and saying I just went through the training and everything and was hype. Now, I wish I never brought this thing. If it printed on larger substrates maybe I wouldn’t be so mad but it’s not worth it at all. I’d rather go DTF, even tho I’m hearing that has its downsides to.
Happy New Year and thank you again for another great video and information. I’ve been thinking of getting one to complement my SG500 and vinyl. Is the Ricoma 15x15 better than the WALAPress or one from HPN?
Thank you, as always, for your videos and instructions. Do you HAVE to have this heat press? Did you say the bottom plate heats up? Can you use a regular heat press?
Watched five or six of your videos tonight and the sound seems broken on this one. I even tried reloading the page. Odd. All the others were loud enough to hear (and had great content too).
It came out beautifully. Can the printer do larger prints? So why did you decided to order from TKI if you have the white toner, what are the advantages to order from them over using a white toner? I'm trying to to decided what to do. Thanks for the review.
I show all forms of printing on my channel and for large orders I will not be doing this 2 step process for my clothing brand. Transfers are faster and feel better and last longer overall
@@katrinasgracefulcreations3711 yes, my printer takes up to 11 X 17 but I am looking for a cheaper alternative to the Colman & Company A/B sheets. Does Ricoma offer 11 X 17 size A/B sheets?
Being these are not much more expensive than DTF printers, I cannot see the advantage of DTFs besides the ability of them to print in wide format. . These types never clog and require a lot less maintenance. The inkjets have to be maintained on a regular basis.
Because the washability in white toner is awful. They crack and chip after the first wash and look awful after 3 or 4. Plus the error rate during the process is way higher. You may only get 50 useable transfers out of a box of 100. The cost is nowhere near the same. DTF is easily $8-9 a print. DTF is $1.50. And since she has a Ricoma, she’s not allowed to give a negative review since she’s in contract with them.
This is the same reason I’m looking into the WT, the alternate is the pro color, but I do not print many shirts at this time due to only having sublimation printer
How long before you broke even on the equipment investment? At the time of this comment, the Luminaris 200 + Heat Press bundle is $7920. For an established business, it is probably a minor cost, but for someone starting out, it is on the steep side.
Not a great investment. The print has no stretch at all the image will Crack. It is good if you are doing prints on substrates with no stretch i.e mugs, wood, vinyl jackets
@@katrinasgracefulcreations3711 have you used a paper called TSeal? It is supposed to help white toner & dtf prints embed into the material more. The guy that tested it out took the fabric and stretched with all his might and no cracking.
No matter what new craft I'm looking to take on, I always come to Katrina because I KNOW she already got a video on it!
I try my best to stay up to date lol
WOW! Thanks for that tip on removing the white toner mistakes.
Thank you! I was loss in the steps. Now after seeing your video I am a PRO! Thank you.
Glad it helped! This is great to hear! 😊🫶🏽
They have a sale now too for the end of the year

Oh my! I have watched so many white toner videos and this video was so helpful. Thank you, thank you!
You’re very welcome
Another great video Kat just keep them coming x
Thank you for the video Katrina.
Good work...hope you have a great new year....suggestion : show folks how to do rasterization with holes and lines

Thank you for teaching us so thoroughly.
Does your bottom heat press platen have a silicone surface to hold the heat when you warm it up?
Love the full demonstration definitely on my future purchase list👍🏽
Do not buy white toner if doing shirts go with dtf or dtg or a Rolandbn20 print and cut
For some reason my Color design is transferring to the glue instead of the glue transferring to the paper. how long am I supposed to press the transfer. 310 for 30 sec. or 300 for 120 sec

Hi Katrina, can you explain how the vivid rip work with the luminaries 200? and put 2 images on one sheet.
Thank you and Happy New Year.
I have the Luminaris and would like to figure out how to make split images. Could you put a link to your video for that?
what is the max paper size can use with this printer ? can i Use 11x17in paper size or bigger ?
Newbie Here 🤭🤭What Side Goes In The Printer For Print Shiny Side Up Or Down
What kind of sheets do you use for the final press?

Do you have to do daily maintenance on white toner

Every time I use my icolor 560 I can never get the picture to come out on the othere paper so I can put it on this shirt I don't know if i'm sitting the heat right or what
You have to follow the instructions for that machine. But the time and temperature and the pressure is so key for the perfect transfer

How much do ppl sell their transfer for for white toner printer
Thank you for this video. I have been having a problem with my transfers, they will not adhere correctly to the material! I have wasted so many transfers, what advice can you give?
White toner transfers? You have to have firm pressure when marrying the images. And it’s a cold peel at least mines are. Follow the instructions of the brand you’re using
can you use the transfer sheet with a regular or sublimation printer
What brand printer is that
What printer do you prefer for full color printing?
What’s the cost on one of these?
Happy New Year
I am new to DTF and I just bought my printer so I'm trying to soak up as much as I possibly can. Thank you for very informative videos! I have one question. The A/b sheets are comparable to using the white powder, is that correct? I want to be sure I understand this right. Seems like a game changer!
It is comparable because that is the adhesive however you get more stretch with dtf than with white toner
I try but it won't transfer
How much do you sell shirts for with this printer.
How much does it cost for the transfer Paper I heard it's very expensive is there a generic/inexpensive replace pkg. out there?
Hello, I just got a siser for Christmas and want to do sublimation. Is it true that I can use a heat transfer paper or do I need to buy a new printer. I have been watching some of your videos, your a very good teacher. Thank you.

No the bottom doesn’t heat up you press it to make it hot. This is a regular heat press

The link is Ricoma in the description box

Are those transfer papers only available in 8.5" X 11"?
Depends on your printer. Some take bigger

What paper are you using?
Did you watch. I showed the paper in the video
How much is that printer? And what size of paper does it take ?

Are the printer and presser capable of printing hundreds of tee’s?
