Remove the smaller plugs on the ink tanks. You're pulling a vacuum when sucking the ink through to the dampers. Those are vents and should be left open to prevent the vacuum and allow the ink to flow.

[@kushanthapushpakumara7713]

That's exactly what I thought. The tanks are closed tight

[@gracegraphicsdesigning6398]

Exactly my point

[@elevated-apparel]

You have to extract the ink really slow. Once it's in the chainber pull out the syringe then insert it again now this is when you will extract the 5m from it being full already. Another thing is don't let the syringe push air back into the chainber or it will inset air in the lines.

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

I tried not to let air go back in. It’s hard when nothing comes out. But I finally got it last night. Just still working on the back. Thank you for the tips

Try removing the plug on the ciss (where the ink goes on the door) remove the air plunge then take the syringe and plug it in the cartridge and pull ink threw slow till it fills up the line. Don't let it push air back in the lines. The after it's done plug the ciss air plunge back in.

[@louisd95714]

One would think for that pirce the company would have provided bottles with the correct openings so syringes would not be needed, like standard Epson EcoTanks. I would not even purchase a printer if I had to inject the ink manually. ALso, not sure if you saw this warning from the manual: 1. The print head and waste ink pump are not covered by the warranty. Due to the characteristics of DTF ink, if the print head is not used for a long time, the print head is easily blocked. Please carefully maintain the print head. If you do not use it for more than three days, please install the print head moisturizing solution. , you can contact our after-sales service to get the operation method; 2.Check the ink stock regularly, and replenish the ink when it is almost used up; 3.Regularly check the ink in the waste ink bottle. If the waste ink bottle is full, clean it in time; 3. After the printing task is completed, the printer should be properly turned off. It is prohibited to expose the print head to the air for a long time.

[@carolynstrachan3702]

I'm sorry you are having this problem. I am having problems getting the color to print the shade I need on my DTF. Learning the software is my challenge but I'm not giving up and I know you want. You will get there!

[@NancyGarcia-cr2is]

OH MY.... I got my DTF printer and oven from Swing Design and my printer came in the crate with foam very well insulated and was very easy for me to open the box myself in about 10 min using a screwdriver and pliers. The oven came in it's own box. I didn't have any issues with pulling the ink through.... I did my first 2 prints and they pressed great!!! now I did see on another channel that my white adhesive is supposed to resemple the outside of an orange peel and my was still grainy. So I think I still need to work on my curing oven settings. I was not sent a filter with mine as I have seen on some other ovens so I hope I am ok w/o it since I have it in an area where I purposely wanted good ventilation for the oven. I am about to do a 3rd and 4th design tonight. I need to review my opening procedure again so I can remember what to do to not have issues. But the opening/closing procedures and daily maintenance so far is a breeze. I hope my experience stays that way. I got the Prestige A3+ w/ the Phoenix 16 x20 curing oven. So far I am loving my experience with DTF.

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

Yeah I wish I had a different brand congrats on your new purchase and hope all goes well for you.

[@sylvestercecil5451]

looks like the vacuum of the syringe is sending the air back into the system. Try unplugging the vent plug on the ink bottles or keeping the ink bottles open so that it can flow.

[@roxannehoward7333]

You just amaze me every time you do a video, even when things go completely wrong. I'm sorry, I don't know anything about how to help you solve this annoying issue but if anyone can pull through this, it will be YOU! And by you showing your struggles you are finding out that it's not just you and vice a versa and everyone coming together with ideas on possibly finding the solution. Hang in there Ms Katrina and GOD Bless :)

I totally understand what you mean about not having help and I feel bad for you because it it isn’t easy always having to do everything on your own without any help. I applaud you for everything you accomplish by yourself, my mom was a single parent and I watched her struggle so I have empathy. I have to move my grandmother and her entire house of things and I don’t have help right now so I can completely understand where you’re coming from. Sometimes it would just be nice to have someone help share the burden lol. It’s great though that you are an independent woman that has a successful business and you are going places. Plus you can say you did it all on your own! The struggle is real but I have confidence you’ll get the DTF printer working. Love your channel and everything you make!!!

You are allowing air back into the lines. When you start extracting, pull the needle out when you cant pull anymore. Release all the air in the sarenge and go back in and pull again. Personally I think the lines they use are to small making it hard to suck out the ink.

Most people aren’t trying to be heroic, but others who see the act, are the ones who see it as heroic. I don’t mean to sound preachy, but I referred you as my SHERO because you stuck with it although you were in a lot of pain. I felt so bad for you and wished someone stronger was there to open the crate for you. I know the pain of having to bend over to accomplish a task, all while your lower back is hurting. I don’t think… no, I know that I wouldn’t have been able to stay with it because of my lower back that I had and unsuccessful laminectomy on. (The surgeon promised me he could fix it, but he failed. Now, my back is worse than before.) Anyway, I’m sure that far more people than I feel about you being our SHERO… not just because of that one day, but because of how you fight to be successful for both you AND your son.

OMG! I couldn’t stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣 during the time trying your very best to open that damn crate. Girl, I felt for so bad and wanted to jump into the monitor providing some help but technology isn’t there yet🥲. This video segment made my morning. That said, I would not have purchase any DTF printers that require syringe to fill the ink cartridges -my opinion. Whatever this brand of purchased all they did was cut cost by having consumers to use a syringe. This in its self is a red flag. Epson and other known brands is a choice I would had considered. Yeah, may saved a few bucks but the headache filling inks isn’t worth it. Neither are the computer software and drivers. Plus to pay for a Mac software is absolutely ridiculous 👎. As for the ink not flowing through the air tubes may be factory error. DTF printers has a air pressure pushing the ink through the tubes and it may be damaged. If you get it going not think this may happen again after replacing the ink. Something like this situation may also cause ink clogging -something to think about. If this was me -return it! Otherwise hope it gets resolved. ❤your videos 😎.

The printer is a headache until you get the hang of it. In the beginning you will waste a lot of ink. I finally got use to my erasmart after several months. It’s frustrating for sure. You have to do head cleaning over and over again.

Ugh... I'm so close to buying a dtf and I'm leaning towards this but there is much info out there about it. This video makes me nervous

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

Yes you have to do your research. I will be giving an update very soon.

[@unlimitedtowing4334]

I'm so confused. I just wanna know the best DTF to buy. I always come back to this procolor but idk. Anyone help? What's the best dtf out here??

Katrina did you ever get your printer Fixed or is it still down

[@99downtown99]

I can completely understand the situation. I had ordered a Model J (supposedly a 1390 printhead) from DTG PRO and have had nothing but problems. I have yet to get one good print. (Getting a double print with bi-direction set) Then I noticed they use an adapter card for a cheaper L805 printhead rather than the 1390. Very deceiving. I've been trying to talk to Customer Service regarding a return for weeks, and they keep ducking me. Still out $3700+ !! Never going back to DTG PRO!

So sorry

[@macone06]

Looks like you have the caps on the ink bottles still in theese need to be removed to allow flow Not the side where you put the ink in the other end that looks like nipples Hope this helps

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

The other side? Not sure what side you’re referring to

[@macone06]

@@katrinasgracefulcreations3711 the smaller end of the caps not the larger one that you take off to pour the ink into the smaller one that is attached to the larger one

Patiently awaiting your follow up video. On another note, I cringe every time you have to take a large item upstairs to your craft room. Using a dolly to transport heavier items could lessen some of the strain on your body 😊.

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

I truly hate my craft space is upstairs. I looked for a house with a space downstairs but couldn’t find one. Won’t be too much longer hopefully. A dolly would be just one more thing I have to store but might be a wise purchase.

I’m having a issue where it had a run code error and now won’t print.

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

Where’s your brother A-Dubb Mr Alan help our sister out LOL😂 but it’s just a hick up you remind me of myself we NGU Never Give Up and when we have to not happy about it. I LOVE THAT COLOR THOUGH, matches my Tumbler press ❤

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

Hmmmm I have no idea

[@adubbproductions]

I tell you why. She coulda called me. I would have told her that all she had to do was twist the clips and and push the tabs up. Ruined that beautiful reusable crate . Box abuse. Hey, Independent women wanna be independent. Smh. Rip to the top of that box. I feel her pain on that printer though. These things are not tried and true. They come straight from over seas and to the customer with no QC checks. They need to lower the price cause we are doing all the quality control and as you can see it ain’t working out so well. Feel so bad for the box. She coulda called me. Hmmmmm 🫤

[@jabucustomcreations]

@@adubbproductions 😂 You did say you loved your box but you made your setup look so smooth but I know K gone make it happen I got faith in her

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

@@adubbproductions Yes I am independent that’s not a bad thing at all. We didn’t have the same type of box yours was a different material. Mines was just wood. So it definitely wasn’t beautiful. And call you? You don’t have no time for lil ole me anymore.
