I hear mixed stories. I have one that as of yet I haven't had the right uses for and am considering selling it. I bought it used but with a year warranty which might be up in Oct. If your interested I'm in FL.

I would get samples of your "type" of printing that your current customer want. Screenprinting is still better for some types of images. CMYK can only go so far..... Thats why they have 10 color presses. Don't get me wrong, the Anajet is great, but you have to understand that spot color printing is the only way to go on certain jobs.

I think Ian is dead on. Do some research with the graphics your customers currently want. A 10-color press provides you more options... but you have more setup related costs. Most of the companies that I have done work with that have been doing screen printing do not stop it, but only add dtg printing to complement the screen printing. I would hate for you to sell your screen printing equipment to get a dtg printer (no matter which brand) and then not be happy with the colors / hand / production speed. So take your time when making this decision and do as much research as possible.

Just my opinion. Best wishes,

Mark
