Here are some essential tips to keep your DTF ink work better:


1. Clean the Printer

Before injecting new ink, ensure thorough cleaning of the printer, including ink cartridges and the internal ink supply system.

Residual ink can cause clogging and affect print quality. Regular maintenance prevents potential issues and extends the lifespan of your equipment.

2. Shake the Ink

Daily rolling or shaking of white ink is imperative to prevent clogging or separation.

White ink, in particular, tends to settle over time, leading to inconsistencies in printing.

Shake the ink vigorously to ensure uniform consistency before each use.

Remember, white ink typically has a shelf life of nine months, so monitor its condition regularly.

3. Maintain Optimal Working Conditions

Control the temperature and humidity levels in your DTF printing environment.

The recommended temperature range is 16-28°C, with humidity maintained between 40%-60%RH.

Fluctuations in these conditions can impact ink viscosity and drying times, affecting print quality and adherence to the substrate.

4. Recommend the Right Products

For optimal performance and results, consider using SOLTOPRINT DTF transfer film and DTF powder.
