Cheap DTG Printer | The Best Direct to Garment alternative | Laser Heat Transfer Printer Heat Press 

Amazing video thanks man I was looking for a printer like this for like 3 days straight and this is the only video I found that tells you all the information you need.

Dude, I so get your excitement at the potentials! 😀

Great vid! We have a similar machine at work but our boss (who always says no) insists we use a expensive transfer media which is extremely poor productivity leading to 50% failures. We would save loads of time having weeding paper too!

This is exactly what I need for my small design business. I get large quantity multiple color design orders and would make my life so much simpler!

Great video...no fluff no bs...directly related to the description of the video...appreciate you 👍🏾

Amazing results! Enjoy your enthusiasm and energy.

I have to say that because of you and this channel I have purchased the i560 when it comes to printing media as far as I am concerned, you're the authority brother. I appreciate your time and your willingness to help up rookies. I also have your screen printing software and it has changed my life and How I run my business. If anyone is reading this and needs a software to run your screen printing business, take a look at the print life software! it does all the thinking for you. worth every penny.

I like this guy. He ain't right. Thanks for the info. Anymore thoughts on these printers would be great. Our event biz has been covid killed and we are recreating a 40 year biz. Pointers appreciated.

Another great video Cam. The printer looks great , you sell it very well, with your pumped up excited exuberance!

I own a similar printer and been using it for over 2 years, absolutely impressed with my oki c711wt.

Great job and really love your energy! This video also eased my concerns about colors! Thank you very much!

thank you so much for this. I may end up with one of these in my near future for my small business. hoping to exceed the small part of that. lol thank you again for your feedback on this amazing machine

Cool, always wondered how those printers work. Thanks for the vid & good vibes 💯

this looks pretty good! our shop got a DTG printer a few years back but it was a nightmare like you said, the thing would clog in the middle of jobs! It's now a very expensive, very oversized paper weight :/

Dude, this is super exciting, thank you for the awesome review!!

Great video thanks.. ive seen the similar self weeding stuff and colour print stuff.. but the under and over printing on this does make it attractive!

If Matthew McConaughey and Bradley Cooper had a child lol, Awesome presentation and good vibes!

I bought this system since i wanted to avoid maintenance of a DTG printer, i bought the printer that prints up to 13" x 19". Shirts come out great and i recommend this system for event shirts, something that you will wear 1 or 2 times because after 3 or 4 washes image cracks and or you start getting those spots where ink comes off. After a year and not getting a lot of returnig costumers i had to get a DTG printer if i wanted to stay in business. Durability, compared to DTG, not even close. I love this system for hats and face covers though, something you dont wash often.

Bro! Infomercials have really stepped their game up since RU-vid!

Thank you for the instructional video this really helped me decide I'm gonna do this for my record label....I been thinking about it for 2 years 🤣🤣

I have had the 600 for over a year and absolutely love it

Good to see you finally get on the laser toner band wagon. I’ve been trying to point you to it for a year now. Lots of videos on my channels for all methods of printing. Awesome.

Excellent video, liked and subbed man. Thank you for showing us this printer from your professional perspective!!

I operate a DTG machine at work and it's true! It's more beneficial to run it every day!

I bought the uninet 560 last year and ended up selling it. Its not bad for doing small orders. If you have full color prints with little negative space the prints are going to feel like a paper bag on your shirt. If you have larger orders of 100 prints or more then its going to take you forever to complete the order. Between marrying and heat pressing its going to take you quite a while not to mention a slew of other issues from heat press issues to prints not peeling correctly. Humidity problems. Paper problems. Printing problems etc. Its just not practical for a thriving business. For small orders or personal use its not bad. We have our transfers screenprinted now. Its actual cheaper per print and when you compare pressing a screenprinted transfer for 10 seconds as opposed to the white toner print that takes much much longer to press not to mention you have to marry the A and B sheets. Then it seems like we were having lots of peeling issues. With screenprinted transfers its press for 10 seconds and immediately peel with 99% success rate. And it feels like a real screenprint as opposed to it feeling like a paperbag on your shirt. Sorry about the negative info but I wish someone had told me this before I dropped close to $4,000 on this printer.

Awesome looks good seen afew other ones that do the same they run around $5,000-$8,000 to $12,000 for the bigger ones can't wait to see your update videos🤙🏼

Thanks so much for the info! Looking into this one and you answered several questions for me! Looking like this might be the one:)

wow such a useful video ! you’re making me want to convert my garage

Hey big guy I saw you did this video like a year ago how was that printer still working for you I'm trying to find something that is worthy of my shop because I'm just getting into it and I'm transferring from silk screening and I love the way your stuff looks and your video is right on time I've been looking for something like that thank you for the content please let me know how it's still working for you and keep up the good work

Wow 10 mins ago you posted this... Just came across it because im looking into those uv dtg from eBay

Great video and an awesome no BS guy. Thanks for posting!

I love it!! I just got a printer to do sublimation. This is sooooooo sweet! Can I come over? LOL

For those who are in screen printing DST would be a great alternative. Laserprint on a much cheaper transfer paper, white underbase with water based ink and glue powder from plastisol transfers. Best option for small full color orders.

Thank you so much for reviewing this printer. I am very interested in purchasing it but do you know how the print on the shirt holds up in washes?

Great video and enjoyable to watch in a Dennis Pennis way. :-) Well done and thank you. I 'thumbed up!'

Love the content 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾you have a new subscriber Brooklyn is in the building 🗣🗣🗣🗣🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾

Wash test videos, and rip video reviews coming soon.

I just started with laser..forever flex

Super rad vid Bro! We’r hooked. 🤘🏼

Thank you for this. Been looking for a way into the DTG-type market. I think I just found my starting point.

First of all, great video and info. I really enjoyed it and you opened my eyes to the DTG nightmare. This is a great alternative as you have said. Question: How are the graphics on the garments with 5 washes? 10+ washes? Do the graphics peel or fade or are they absolutely permanent?

I like your demo. I also would like to see you do a wash test - how many washes can this take? Please do it

his uncle 1 is great, it inspires us even more to work. warm greetings & healthy greetings.

Great Videlo Cam I looked at that unit a year or so ago

There's also an OKI white toner printer that is basically the same thing. I've been using it for years and love it. Great for short, full color runs and you can gang the art. Negative side is that there's a limited area for art if you need it to be larger than 8.2 inches by 16.75 inches.

Seeing that its such a diverse printer, can it also do sticker/labels. Then this will be perfect for me

Love to have one, just getting my business started.

I didn't even know I needed this printer until I saw your video - goddamn you! ;) Now I'm over $7 grand Australian poorer but pretty bloody excited. Thanks for your awesome video (as always) and advice.

I bought the icolor600 series about 3 years ago at a graphics show. Amazing machine!! especially with the 11×17 size prints... it has the ability to print labels of any type and seal them. The only downside for me is the cost of the toners. Garment image starts to fade after about 20-30 washes.

Great Video! I also have had one these printers since January and I feel the capability is awesome! If you test various settings (halftones - rasterization), your garments will not only look great and have a good hand, they will handle washing and everyday abuse quite well.

You sold us on this printer! We are going to start our side business! Thanks for the inspiration! Let us know if you have any other tips! Subbed!

Fantastic video. Interesting machine. Thanks for sharing!

Definitely interested in getting more info on this printer!!

Try using parchment paper instead of the teflon sheet. I know for DTG it gives the print a less glossy look than the teflon. I used to work for a company that sold DTG printers.

Been waiting this for so long! Thank you because you made a review on this!

Man, thanks for making these videos. Just starting out with screenprinting. Trying to make my own merch, and your videos help out a lot. I'm very interested to see the future videos about this dtg. Hopefully, their isnt much headache and wonder how many washes before the colours start to fade.

I used to be in favor of DTG but maintenance can really be a nightmare, fortunately I got a discount on some transfer solutions and media from the B&E Buyers Club.

Death to digital! But I may consider this one haha Gotta see that wash test video first.

Really enjoyed this video! Came across looking for alternatives for dtg watched for like 10 seconds and was like hey wait a min I totally know who this is. Looked up your Instagram and confirmed. So good to see you. Keep up the great videos, I loved the honesty and the energy. Blake R

Lol... He's goofy & entertaining, I will definitely be subscribing...

Possibly one of the best decisions I’ve made is purchasing the Icolor 550, I’ve come from Screenprinting/htv vinyl for 5+ years and let me tell you it saves you a lot of time, I feel like the learning curve would be peeling the A&B sheets since you would have to find the right temperature/press time and getting it to peel smoothly, but otherwise then that the quality is amazing!

thank you for such a great video. I don't know if you've gotten this far yet but how many shirts do you think the cartridges yield? averagely?

I love ur excitement great energy

This uncle 1 is great, it inspires us even more to work. warm greetings & healthy greetings.

Nice, welcome to the party Cam!

Great vid! Seeking advice: Current situation: -Artist/designer (not a printer). I do all my own file setup (vector/Illustrator). - Zero screen printing experience (or desire to do it). -I have a core stock of tees (6 designs) done by a great local screen printer. I ship from my studio. - I have tons of other designs, color, garment options on my Shopify store, DTG/dropshipped by Printful. - POD companies are all backed up and delayed due to COVID-19. Wondering: Would this be a suitable replacement to bring it all in house, and do the prints myself - as far as quality, etc. compared to Printful/POD? This startup cost is doable for me, and would give me the option of offering countless designs. I understand I'd have to stock my own blanks, etc. and do the actual printing myself. Thanks!

I have this unit .. for a few years now ... LOVE IT! Truly feel the software is not as advanced as it should be .. but hey 🤷🏽‍♀️ it works! I really don’t care for the paper-Eee feel when you have a full color image .. but again 🤷🏽‍♀️ It works!!!

Hey brother just found your channel because of this printer. Great review brother and thanks for all the help and information about the product.

thank you for sharing this great printer. but in my country, we dont have this kind of printer ... very sad

the fist 2 secs on this video have to be my favorite intro

I thought I was watching Will Forte! Thank you for the vid!

Very Cool! Thanks for the video!

Technically this isn’t DTG as the DIRECT TO GARMENT doesn’t apply. Should be called DTTTTG (DIRECT TO TRANSFER THEN TO GARMENT)!

for anyone wondering this is not a DTG, its a transfer printer

Great video! Thanks for sharing!!! Checking it out! Hey Uninet... thanks for sending him a printer!!!1😀😀😀

You did a great job! You always make it seem exciting & getting your point across. I look forward to your videos & learn. I just don’t like that the Co. makes it so difficult to get the price which a lot of times is the bottom line. 🤨

Although I can't afford it, the presentation was great! . For now, I'll stick to designing for on line products.

I'm sure if you're precise enough with some scissors and a steady hand you can put together a larger piece

hi, thanks for the video, really good. can i ask what is the stretch flexibility like on the prints/ inkblocking properties / capabilities with nylon, polyester, elastane etc otherwise it looks great!

Cheers for the informative video. Appreciated!

so any wash testing done yet? everything looks good but how long the image it's going to stay on the shirt... it's going to be 20 washes, 50 washes like vinyl???

Definitely interested in information like cost.

Love you, God bless you 🙌🏽

Simply put ... GREAT VIDEO!

I'm thinking about getting one in the fall. Maybe the bigger model. I'm off and on about it. Maybe at the October AC show if the price is right and something else doesn't catch my eye.

Hey Cam, since you say this is an alternative to DTG, how's texture/feel? is it matte or glossy? the biggest turn off for me with transfers is the thick rubbery feel..it's like someone just slapped a sticker on a shirt. is it at least in between the softhand feel of traditional screenprint and regular transfers? hard to judge from just the video clip.

Thanks my babble . I did get the message and it was good .

Question the screen scoop coater size, if I have a 10 in by 14 in do I get an 8 in or a 10in scoop coater? I measured the inside of my screen at 10 and when I got the 8in scoop coater it was exactly 8in

Need to see wash test, if that's good then I'm in.

Any ideas on the longevity of the images on the shirts? Roughly how many washes are they good for?

Thank you so much for all the good info. I have worked as a graphic artist in screen printing for a couple decades and enjoying your channel. I appreciate your enthusiasm. I wonder what your take is on customer designer software, like Custom Ink has on their website.. so the customer can design their own t-shirts. If you think they are worth and and how to add one to a website. Our shop is trying to figure out how to drum up more business online. BTW This laser printer looks really cool!

Totally ignorant to this whole industry and I have no interest in adding another hobby to my already long list of shit to learn so I just want to say thank you for all the applicable and down to earth info here. I didn't know most of it.

Holy shit bro! 130k view in a month? Killing it!

Nothing like a DTG printer. Look up Ghost White Toner, HP M452dw, Forever Transfer Papers, and RhinoScreen 2.0. Most won't tell you because they want to promote the more expensive printers, but to get in the game (for way less than half of just the Uninet or Oki printer) you cannot beat that combo. If you have the cash $12K+ , get the Oki Pro9541WT. It can do CMYK+W in one pass and it can print 13x19. You're welcome. Also, these have been out for a few years, so hop on quick as you can see, most people are starting to catch on.

thank you for such a great video !! hmm i love to have video of washing test and stretch test

Great video thank you. Looking forward to some wash test videos.

For anyone wondering this is like a $4k DTG machine.

What's the largest job you recommend taking on this machine? I use my DTG for small orders and screen printed transfers for large jobs. But this might be a good alternative to ordering transfers.

Hypothetically, if you were to apply an image or design to flat glass how do you think the adhesive would have the glass?
