Too cool ...

I am currently researching on how ink jet ink works in hopes to use watered down speedball waterbased fabric ink in my my T Jet in the future. (I have enough old spare parts around to give it a go some day, just need 4 hours to swap them in and out.)

Brilliant! It's amazing what people are doing with printer hacks these days. A little ingenuity can save you tens of thousands. Good luck!

Are you saying you have made your own ink and have run it through your printer? Am I understanding you correctly that you had problems with clogging and cleaned it up with water and detergent? If so, how frequent was the clogging and what kind of detergent did you use?

Thanks,

Bob

I think he's saying his prints wash out easily on his DIY DTG. I would guess the right ink isnt being used
