I created an image that is the state of Florida. I have a green shadow behind it. When I print it out on my DTG all I am getting is a green outline and now white for the state of florida. I have changed my color for the state of FL to C 1 M 0 Y 0 K 0. Can someone please help?
No they print CMYK I would try making that percentage to 2 instead of 1. Sometimes with mine depending on the artwork, it takes putting it to 2. Also make sure there are no seperate portions that are still white. This has happened to me before where it looks like one big white area, where in reality it was many small parts, and all of them needed the color replaced. Just a thought, hope it helps

Would someone take a look at my image and see if it might be me? I have even tried to print it on a black shirt to just get the underbase and nothing. It would be really helpfull. Feel free to e-mail me at tchrisp at gmail com
Looking at the photo is not really going to help us help you What printer are you using and what settings are you using on your advanced printer settings, and the settings on your rip. That will help us much more then seeing the file. Did you try changing the color to 2 percent of a cmyk color? What type of file is it?

Yes I did. I even went to 3.

Ah haaa I found your problem in your settings Where it has layer type and you have color layer, you need to change that to color layer auto mask What its doing is only printing the color layer, and its not printing a mask. K now go try it and see if it works Let me know, it should print fine now with that change.

That was it. I do have a second question now. I dosn't look like the white layed down at all heavy and it kinda top of the threads. anything i can do to lay it done heavier? I am printing it on an ash color shirt or light grey.
You did pretreat the shirt first right ? Also can you tell me your pretreatment method, because at 1440 you should be getting a nice white layer. Let me know this and I will try to help further. If your pretreatment is good, then I would try maybe doing 2 white layers, one color and see how that works. You should not need to do 2 layers though if you are pretreating the garment correctly. But like I said if pretreament is all well, I would do 2 layers of white.

yes Anytime you use white ink you have to have it pretreated. The white ink will not adhere to the shirt without it. Have you dont pretreatment yet? If not here is a great thread that I explain, as well as other members the fine art of pretreating If you dont pretreat, it just looks like fuzzy ink beading up on the fabric

Its all those little things that will get you the perfect prints. Its not a problem at all, your job in the future will be to pass the knowledge on Thats the nice part, when you see what you have learned has helped someone else, because these are the things alot of times you dont learn when you buy your machine
