Do you like your DTG?
Hey all,
I'm throwing this question out there for many reasons. The main reason is that I am looking at a DTG viper or HM-1, because of the white ink, and white ink management system.
I am looking at this machine because it is on the small(er) scale. I would like to try to take it on the road with me. I know the viper is a new model so many don't have one yet. So do you like your DTG brand printer in general? They are rep'ed by SWF east, I have had horrific experiences with their embroidery machines, so I am hesitant to trust them in any other area. PLUS The sheer amount of used DTG brand printers on here, kind of raises a flag to me. If they're as good as SWF claims, why are there a million of them for sale, and noticing, a good majority aren't selling????
I have a mimaki right now, so I am not new to DTG's, the only problem, is mimaki does not make a white ink model.
I've heard a lot of horror stories about white ink DTG's. Mainly the fact that white ink is rough on the print heads, and that some people are having to put in new print heads every few months?
What is everyone's thoughts???
