No. You can continue, as usual.

Thank you for the maintenance the other day. Have you ever experienced a maintenance call code of 0400 in the past? If so, please let us know the details. Can you give me some advice on how to deal with this？

It really depends on your ink, printer, and ICC profile (if you use one). I usually run my ink limit for color at 35%. I set my brightness to 120, but I am using a converted large format Epson printer.

Ok thank you. I have the L1800 I usually have my brightness at 110 contrast at 100 I changed my ink limit after your video and my colors matched the png better. Thank you for the video!

Are you referring to the setup on the actual printer, or through AcroRip? If you want to change the ink configuration on the printer itself, it will really depend on the specific model printer that you're using. If you're using the Stylus Pro or SureColor Pro series, you would have to remove the chips from the refillable ink cartridges and swap the carts to the appropriate channels, while ensuring that the chips stay in the original channel, as each chip is flashed to correspond to that specific channel. If you need further help with doing this, please schedule a consultation with me and I will assist you personally. Here is my services page: www.popdtf.com/book-online

For this, you would need to remove the white in your image, with your graphic editing software, such as Adobe Illustrator, or Photoshop. I demonstrate how to do this in my DTF Printing Mastery Class.

Thank you for the kind words and support. I understand that this can be very confusing for a beginner, so I try to explain it in a way that everyone can understand. We all need a little help, sometimes.

You likely have your resolution set too high, within the layout tab. I wouldn't set your resolution higher than 1440 x 1440

I will ask my mentor, but as far as I've seen, we have had to replace the entire capping assembly. If the seal on the head cap is damaged to the point where the head can't properly seat to it, the pump won't be able to effectively pull through all of your channels, trough the head.

​@elegant_edits no doubt about that. I just saw the top cap section offered for sale separately from the assembly and assumed that there must be a way to replace just that section alone. Would definitely be easier than the complex operation involving swap of the camping assembly.

Thanks! This is likely the case, because it varies, based on the type of film your using, as well as the opacity. I would just lower the opacity and try it again.

Thanks! Since then, I've learned that what causes the head strikes is when we use glossy film. We should use double-sided matte film on these printers. I will have 24" rolls fully stocked, soon.

Ink Chip is only for the printer to read the ink cartridges as full. If you need a color chart, I have uploaded one here for free: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bfcjMGq8w6jKe_mkwNzKcWHZCzDOpcTv?usp=drive_link

From what I remember, I ended up having to leave around two to three inches of empty space at the end of the sheet. This is because the guide rollers have to be able to push the sheet through. So, around two inches represents the length of the print track, from the guide rollers. You'll just have to run a test print and see where it bottoms out

you have to use dtf remove and clean the printhead

I've learned a lot since then, and I will have an updated video uploaded to the channel, soon. You don't have to tape the print track down, and I've found that double matte film was the solution to the head strikes, instead of using glossy film. You only need two channels of white, instead of four. The stylus pro series printers are workhorses, if you use quality inks and maintain them properly.

@@elegant_edits nice si have a p6000 just sitting that I’m thinking of converting swing your video

The p6000 is a different animal. While it looks the same, the chips have a finite number of times that they be reset. You'll also need the European version of the 6000 in order to convert it, as there isn't a working chipset for the other versions.

Thanks!

It seems as though your printhead may be out of alignment. How you could perform an alignment would depend on your model printer.

Yes. it's a workhorse and very easy to maintain, if you have good inks. I use my brand of inks and I only have to run maintenance once/week. popdtfink.com

Thanks for the support, and the kind words!

Awesome I'm thinking about getting a 7890 is it a good printer for dtf ?

Which version of AcroRip do you have? It could possibly be a pirated version. If it is AcroRip 10, the dongle should be blue. If have AcroRip 11, the dongle should be red.
