How To Convert An Epson XP-15000 Printer To Print DTF

DTF Supplies: www.dtf.technology/
In this video I go through the process of converting an Epson xp-15000 printer to print DTF.

[@cspills7457]

I have been waiting to use my xp15000 for two years and couldn't find a conversion. I have regular ink in now can I still convert? Can you include the parts and software needed to purchase for the Epson xp15000?

[@taterg]

can you share you ekprint setting i cant get my white underbase to print

[@MrOh-wf2ce]

Good video~ I have a question about the part to remove the pizza wheel. On the screen, the parts connected to the gear on the right part (the pizza wheel connected) and the wire spring connected to the part connected to the right gear are connected to each other. How do I separate this part?

[@chillworksdev4145]

Hi, you mentioned that the white ink was not printing at all. I am suffering the same issue, and I have also dropped DTF liquid into the printhead to try and fix it, but it has still not been fixed. You say you left it soaking for 20 minutes? Does that mean you dropped the liquid into the printhead and let it stay like that for 20 minutes? So far I've been dabbing it with DTF cleaning liquid, swabbing, and then proceeding.If that doesn't work, what else would you suggest? Thank you.

[@chillworksdev4145]

Hi! I set up all the instructions in this video and I've downloaded the Rip Software, but the software is very confusing. How do I get that white underbase? What settings should I have? The "Set Ink Order" is grayed out, do you know how to fix that so I can tell the printer my Red and Gray cartridges are now White? As it is, I am printing out the pictures, but it does not have that white underbase and is very difficult to heat press into the items, usually ending up half-pressed or such. Colors loook great though. Would love the help. Thank you!

[@fritzjudejeanniton3916]

Great video! Thanks for sharing. Removing the tray appears ideal, but my concern is stability with large prints. Wouldn't you need some sort of a platen/vacuum table to prevent ink-streaks? Common issues with L805 & L1800 where streaking appears at the end of the print, 1-3 inches from the edge.

[@dtfprintingtechnology9457]

Yes, a platen won't hurt, however I have not personally had any problems with this printer either because of the shape of the tray or the film thickness that I've used. If this becomes a problem, even a piece of cardboard will do the trick.

Well done. Are you using a specific icc color profile when printing and what are your settings in acrorip?

[@dtfprintingtechnology9457]

I used EKrip. ICC is specific to our ink. Have not tried acrorip yet but I'll need to try and revive this printer some time as it's been sitting unused for months. Would be a good experiment to see if the print head is still functional.

I think I have watched every video. Program is not working with my printer. Any subjection would be much appreciated. I already had my printer running the chipless firm ware. It is a epson xp15000.. I have already converted the printer. I purchased dtg 10.3 version with a dongle key. No problem installing the program. No problem setting all the settings. The program send the print. The print shows up on the print queue. Printer doesn’t print. Also have an artisan 1430 tryed also the same resort. Thanks you for any help you can offer.

Thanks for the video! Have you figured out any work around for bypassing the waste ink tank? Also, since filming this have you noticed more clogging versus other printers (like the L1800) due to the sponge vs spring cartridges? As that seems to be what everyone is saying is bad about using this printer.

Have not really had the time to do much with this printer. Clogging seems fine still. Currently focusing on launching our own branded printer with all the bells and whistles.

[@pawelschmidt7201]

Hi. Thanks for sharing this video. What I do not understand is why it is necessary to use rip software? Would the printer stop running only by unscrewing this metal thing?

[@dtfprintingtechnology9457]

How is your printer suppose to ignore 2 colours while only printing CMYK and applying white on top as a second layer without rip software? Printers can't do that out of the box sadly. No, it won't stop running. I would not have removed that metal thing if it was to break the printer.

[@19sxfr]

Thank you for all the replies. Great info on the xp 15000 all in one place. I really want to do black polyester shirts because they are softer and not as hot as cotton. Can dtf work for black 50/50 or does it have to be only 100 cotton? Also, if i wanted to flush the dtf ink and put in sublimation ink for white shirts would that work? Appreciate the info.

[@dtfprintingtechnology9457]

DTF should work with all fabrics. Yes, if you flush the old ink out, you can replace it with sublimation ink.

[@zjamba]

Could you be so kind and explain how you are performing daily maintenance with xp15000? What are you doing at the beginning of the day and at the end of day with this printer?

[@dtfprintingtechnology9457]

This is not my daily driver. We run an L1800 print farm. I picked up a few printers just to film a few tutorials and experiment. Having said that, I'm still trying to keep this printer functional so it goes through standard daily maintenance we carry out on all of our printers. Shake the white ink before printing or every 2 days when idle (I extract the ink and shake it inside the cyringe). Make sure to print something every 2 days or do an automatic head clean. That's it.

[@eddyr5134]

I have done what so many on youtube say to do yet my photos dont come out as clear as this, the ink is blotchy and the white is not as nice as this, what settings did you use on the rip program ?

Are you printing on the correct side of the film?

[@theguythatdoesthatonething2133]

Can you tell us what the 3rd party refillable ink cartridges are?

[@dtfprintingtechnology9457]

Epson does everything in their power to stop people from using ink that was not made by epson because this how they make the most money. So you need to install another set of ink cartridges that are refillable. Espon does not make them. Other companies do. A CISS for xp-15000 will be available here soon: www.dtf.technology/

[@NewkiwiNews]

How do I change the new cartridges setup ? I need to add 2 whites… In the printer setting or part of the RIP ? Thanks I’m using Cadlink and seems to have soooo much information.

[@dtfprintingtechnology9457]

Sometimes you can do it in any order and configure each colour in your rip software or do it according to a rip software preset. Get in touch with cadlink to get a precise answer. I can't remember which options they had. We don't use cadlink.

Hey, I tried to this with the same exact printer that you used, when I put a DTF sheet, It went through, ready to print, but right as it was about to print it stopped and an error showed up saying the printer was jammed. When I checked to see if there was a jam in the printer it was perfectly fine. I’ve tried with regular printer paper to see if the printer would not print anything or if it was just that printer. When I tried with the plain paper it printed perfectly. Do you know how to fix this to print on the DTF sheet?

Yes, this printer suffers from the feeding issues and can be difficult. There is a video on this channel which goes through some film feeding tips. For a different printer but the process is quite similar.

can i convert a wf 7210 into a dtf printer

Where are you planning to put white ink? 7210 only has 4 colours. You need a 6 colour printer so that you can replace 2 with white ink.

@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 right ,didnt really think of that haha. I acutally got a couple of questions if you dont mind answering, I am actually planing to get a DTF printer from alibaba next week its called etamaster l1800 ,do you have any thoughts on those modified printers from china? do these printer last a long time? I want to do about 20-30 prints a day for my business. what is the maintenance like for these modified printers apart from shaking the ink and doing cleaning, are the printer heads long lasting or should I buy a couple extra in case something happens?

[@TheXboxSux]

Overall it sounds like the negatives of needing newer RIP software, CIS, customizing of the paper feed and ink waste tank might offset the savings of this printer vs a more expensive model. What's your opinion?

[@dtfprintingtechnology9457]

I only bought this printer for testing. Never really considered it for long term printing because of the reasons you mentioned. I know a few people who have been using it for a while and are still happy with performance but I'd personally stick to older models.

[@TheXboxSux]

@@dtfprintingtechnology9457 yeah I watched another video of someone who has been using it as a daily driver for dtf and got all my answers. No one in their right mind should use this thing for any size production run in a serious business. It's way too finicky and prone to failure.

Of course it's not going to print. You were just in touch with us saying you loaded up epson ink first and then added DTF ink without cleaning the old ink out first. You can't mix 2 different types of ink. Solven, sublimation, water based inks etc. should not be mixed.

If you upgrade to chipless firmware you can. Otherwise printer will count how much ink it used and will ask you to replace the cartridges. Cartridges themselves don't measure ink levels. Printers calculates it based on how much you printed.
