Welcome to the DTG World! I've had my Echo2 for two years now and I can share three tips for you: 1 - Getting the machine going in the morning is super fast, a typical Monday morning is just a simple head-clean cycle are you are running at good color almost immediately. 2 - You are going to go through white ink faster than you think. You can dial in all the settings and streamline all the art, but you are still going to use up white faster than you think you are. 3 - Shut Down at the end of the day is way more important than anything else. Shutting down for the weekend is still more important again. Clean everything and then clean it again. Pay the most attention to the parking station, it keeps the print head wet and if it doesn't you are going to need a new print head way too soon ( I speak from experience). Having said that.... I can't wait to see more about the DTF process!

Can I ask your opinion of the Echo2 in terms of reliability? Been trying to decide between the Echo2 and the Epson F2100. Not sure I like how the Echo2 is a mashup of two different machines but as Lee says, the droplet size is way smaller than the Epson.

Best DTG on the market for small shops that doesn’t print everyday! I have mine since 2019 and I couldn’t be happier. Tons of print with little ink and daily maintenance takes less than 5 minutes with minimal amounts of cleaning solution. My machine has gone idle for over 2 months (NOT RECOMMEND :p) without any maintenance, no flushes no waste, all I did was a heavy head cleaning and started printing again!

You should've go with Brother GTX Pro (or Pro Bulk if you don't want to shake cartridges every morning). I have the PolyPrint Pretreater Pro and the overspray and the waste is awful. I took it because it was one of the expensive and coolest pretreater on the market, but I regret it now. Viper Preteater - an openbox pretrater has almost 0 overspray. Shultz is also great. Best part of the PolyPrint pretater is the recirculating system which mixes the pretreatment liquid. Welcome to DTG world and good luck!

I love your content so much. I have never screen printed but I keep watching. This video however... I own a big DTF shop. We started it as a DTG shop before we knew what we were getting into but over the first year realized DTG has so many issues that we switched over to DTF and have never looked back. I am curious to see how hard you push to conquer DTG. Because of your tenacity there is a chance you will go hard on DTG just to master it for no other reason than to say you did. It will be interesting to watch you overcome some of these things. With DTF you actually don't have to overcome any of the things that make DTG unrealistic is most situations. All that to say... Don't sleep on DTF, get ready for the challenge of the pretreat box with DTG, wash test, wash test, wash test. This is going to be fun to watch!!

@@ukprintshop well.... You have to understand that we started our shop with the intention of being a DTG shop. So we purchased several Freejet 330 TX Plus DTG printers by Omniprint. After 6 months of constant tweaking of settings and trial and error we tried printing on film with those printers and that immediately took away all of our problems. So we currently are still using the Omniprint DTG printers but printing DTF with them. We are very close to purchasing the powderless DTF printer from Cobra. We have had many conversations with the owner and our rep from Cobra but are still waiting on samples from them.
