it's too late to introduce new features for DTF printers.
DTF printer is really hot because it change t-shirt, eco-bag printing area.
easy to operation, small quantity is OK. good quality. full color available.
generally china DTF printer using M, Rip software program, but it have so much disadvantages.
let me compare with XcolorRIP and another RIP software pros and cons.
| XcolorRIP | M , | P | |
| compatible files (can use white area) | tif, psd, EPS. | tif | tif |
| choke features | dot unit, left, right, top, bottom each side number seperate apply. | 3 level, all area decrease. | all area decrease. |
| print compatibility | direct printing | prn file save | prn file save |
| CMS work (make icc profile) | CMS work available | Need expensive option program | Need expensive option program |
| Driver development | ask Xcolor. fast response. | No | No |
| Program learning and Question | Available . also available remote support | No | No |
1st say about file format.
generally RIP software support EPS files ( may be M, P also support this file format) . but when if you want to using EPS file as print color and white then M, P need custom design and editing EPS file to tiff file include white ink area channel.
but with XcolorRIP, just same as design it will find white ink area. if you want extra white ink area then just make white Object and locate, that's all.
and also you can use photoshop psd file include transparency (alpha channel) then XcolorRIP aware this white ink area.
2.nd special choke features.
choke enable make smaller area of white, so do not appear white when press to t-shirt.
use dot unit , 1 - 30 dot, and apply left, right, top, bottom seperately.
this is really important , when engineer adjust color and white head, even exact matching , always it can not make exact, and even exact matching, after press then also white appear, so choke feature always needed,
additional this and seperate choke apply enable final exact white and color head adjustment. so engineers like XcolorRIP because it s hard work to adjust white and color head just exact same position.
3.rd. Fast printing features (direct printing ).
i dont know why it's difficult to support direct printing, but M software always use make prn file and then open prn file from print program and print. this process spent much time and also prn file need much more hdd disk space.
XcolorRIP always print direct from RIP to printer. no problem, fast printing no more space for prn file.
this feature satisfying customer they are happy, time saving, hdd disk space saving !
you can try with XcolorRIP trial version, contact local dealer or contact us. always welcome !
