Wink The Kiss Jet A4 DTG printer

Howdy folks & folkesses,

Here's one for you.

Who is aware of the Kissjet A4 DTG printer?

Does anyone own one and if so can they attest to it's quality being that it is marketed at considerably lower price than A3 format machines.

I am somewhat suspicious of the information supplied on the kissjet website:

KISSJET

Not least because of this interesting insert on their forum page:

Bulletin boards specially designed to slag each other off in, especially designed for Muppets who can't help themselves from slagging off other printers, people consumables or anything else that happens to cross there bigoted minds. There is a special section for imaginary friends of competitors to kick us while we are down by the way.
www.slagusoff.com or www.kickuswhileweredown.com etc....or there again you could also use your head and contact us to help fix your problems!!

Any ideas people?

Yours

Kermit the Frog

Looks like a POS to me.

Excuse my ignorance.

What is a POS?

Oh I get it.

Duh!!!

Still, would be interesting to know if anyone has exchanged cash for one.

They claim 6,000+ sold thus far.

Anyone out there guilty?

Default Re: The Kiss Jet A4 DTG printer

the buttons ontop look suspiciously like a epson R800, love there blurb, 50 shirts an hour, yeah right........... good pricepoint though and it will be interesting to hear of anyones tales of ownership. I think if your on that kindof budget the diy r1800 is the way to go.

Default Re: The Kiss Jet A4 DTG printer

I think when they referred to this number they were talking about the total number of dtg printers in the market (including T-Jets, DTG, Flexi, Anajet, Brother,... and all the others).

My gut reaction is this is not an Epson printer for the following two reasons:
- I am not aware of a 6-color 8.5" x 11" Epson printer (but there might be one in Europe)
- The cost for a print head is way cheapier than any other Epson print head.

I tried to email them and the email came back as undeliverable. I can't seem to get into the forums either. It is too bad as I am in Orlando and they state they have a distributor here. Would be nice to see the printer in person.

Wink Re: The Kiss Jet A4 DTG printer

I have a sneaking suspicion that this may be a dummy website for marketing purposes.

Few of the links work, the phone number is a phony (no pun intended), and I am not surprised about the e-mail bouncing back.

Maybe someone is developing a prototype and wants to see whether there is interest at this price point, by getting "Muppets" in forums talking about it.

Well it got one Animal to do just that.

Interesting thought.

We get advertisments for new printers at all price points- like this week

Anyjet Screen Printing Equipment and Supplies | Printer's Edge

OFM Contourjet http://ofmimaging.com/index.php?osCsid=30b...e00ff9843c678c4
for example.
