Overview

Procolored R1390\L1800 DTF printer (Direct to Film printer) is a high-quality and easy-to-use film transfer printer. It delivers industrial-print-quality output at impressive production speeds, and it's an ideal t-shirt printer with the capability of printing on multiple fabric substrates (cotton, poly, blends and more) and different fabric colors (even for fabric in black).

Considering all the combination of price, machine configuration and user experience, we highly recommend A3 DTF printers as the best DTF printers for small business, especially in t-shirt customization.

DTF printing is a unique printing technology that first prints designs onto special films then transfers them onto garments. It is classified as a kind of heat transfer printing that can last as long as traditional silkscreen prints.

Features

Fully Upgraded Roller Feeder – reducing the paper jam problem of traditional printers.

Printhead Auto-Cleaning - When printer is left on, it will automatically clean the printhead every 10 hours, consuming about 1ml ink per day.

White Ink Mix and Circulation – minimizing print head clogging possibility and greatly extending the print head lifetime.

Preheating Function and Adjustable Temperature – heating the printed ink to avoid poor printing effect caused by ink flow.

Film adsorption and ink collection – ensuring the printing work goes on smoothly.

Professional Clothing Printing – high resolution and impressive color fidelity, of industrial-print quality.

Easy-to-use and Beginner-friendly – no pretreatment is required, streamlined printing process especially for printing shop businesses.

Compare with UV DTF printer to find the differences.

Impressed with the Reliability and Quality of Procolored's Printer

I've had this printer for 42 days, and I'm impressed! Despite hearing of DTF issues, this printer works flawlessly, with no clogs even without daily use. The print quality is amazing, and it's reliable. Though not the fastest, it's worth it. Procolored, thank you for an excellent printer. My small business appreciates it! Can't wait for more products from you. So far, so good.

Exploring New Possibilities with My L1800 Printer: A Successful Experience

I've been actively printing with my L1800 13" printer for a little over a month and it's going well. I wanted to try the DTF prints on other surfaces besides shirts and it has been a success. Best wishes everyone!

Reliable and Profitable: My Year-Long Experience with the L1800 Printer

I've had the L1800 printer for over a year, and it's fantastic! It's a workhorse that's already paid for itself. I maintain it and print daily, and the color vibrancy is always top-notch.

So so

I purchased this printer in March of 2024. It took almost month more then the anticipated time to get it. Procolored ships to Canada with DHL and DHL is a sick source for delivery. I have had nothing but trouble with them.. so I wish procolored would use someone else. It is not their fault but the package was nowhere to be found for 2 weeks and it was almost at my destination. Upon starting to print the experience was phenomenal. Everything was easy to set up and the prints were outstanding. However after a few months this printer starter to give problems and since it was under 6 months I recieved a new print head. The machine again worked good for a few days. Then it was chaos I did nozzle clean after nozzle clean and I take care of all of my stuff especially this printer since I paid soon much for it. Procolored was good with customer service. However at this time still under a. Year of purchase I am having problems I have no issue buying a new head but if I keep doing so especially since it is so expensive I might as well hire artists to paint the pictures on for me. So I contact them again and they use a different platform now then Skype. At the first time of contact with this new platform I got ahold of somone. They are telling me I told them the printer worked fine after the new Printhead, and yes that is true I did. But that was right after I put the head in. After a few day it started to give problems,and I think they sent a refurbished head like some people do on Amazon. If that is not the case it was defective because it didn't work for long and I did my maintenance like always. They are now avoiding me and saying to buy a new print head. Had the second head worked for 3 months I would not even hesitate to buy a print head but it seems that this costs more money then buying prints especially since they have gone up. Another reason I can't buy one is they are not available now. How long will I have to wait.? Though I will say when this printer works it's prints are nicer and look just as professional or oven more then I recieved from online sellers that do DTF.
