Default Throwing out the welcome mat :)!!

HELLO THERE PRINTING WORLD---
MY NAME IS GINA AND HUSBAND IS JIM....
WE WOULD LIKE THOSE FOLKS TO KNOW THAT... HAVING A BLAZER EXPRESS IS A KICK IN THE "***" ...ALTHOUGH WE HAVE HAD OUR SHARE OF ISSUES THAT OUER THE LAST "YEAR"
(LONG YEAR) HA HA.....THERE ARE A FEW TRICK THAT WE HAVE FIGURED OUT AND WOULD LIKE TO SHARE IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED...
FIRST AND FOREMOST IS THIS FOURM HAS BEEN A LIFE SAVER TO KEEPING US FROM KILLING EACH OTHER ..YOU KNOW HOW PARTNERS CAN BE..AS WELL AS DEALING WITH GROWING PAINS OF ANY NEW ENDOVER.

1. FOURMS HELP FOR COLLECTING INFO FROM OTHERS THAT HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THE SAME ISSUES
2."WHITE INK"-----ARE YOU KEEPING WHITE INK IN YOUR BLAZER ALL THE TIME? ONLY 10%
OF OUR BUSNIESS AT THIS TIME IS ON DARK COLOR T'S SO, EXAMPLE WE HAVE NOT PRINTED ON DARK GARMENTS IN OVER A MONTH...REMOVE WHITE INK AND REPLACE WITH "DISTILLED WATER" AND WE STILL PRINT ON WHITE AND PASTALLS COLORS WITH "NO PROBLEM" ALL DAY LONG ...TONIGHT WE ARE GETTING READY TO RIP SOME BLACK T'S
FOR THE MINT 400 IN LAS VEGAS THIS WEEKEND.... WILL EXTRACT DISTILLED WATER FROM THE LINE COMPLETELY AND FILL WITH WHITE INK AND WE ARE READY TO GO!!! AFTER FINISHED WITH DARK T'S WE WILL PULL THE WHITE BACK OUT REPLACE WITH DISTILLED WATER ONCE AGAIN..BY DOING THIS PROCESS WE ARE ABLE TO TURN THE PRINT OFF FOR THE 4 DAYS WE WILL BE OUT OF TOWN DOING BUSINESS AND NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE MACHINE RUNNING HEAD CLANING CYCLES FOR NO REASON(MAKE SURE WHEN LEAVING FOR A PERIOD OF TIME TO FILL THE CAPPING STATION WITH CLEANING SOLUITON AS A PRIMER)WE HAVE FOUND THAT THE WHITE INK DOSEN'T SIT WELL WITH OUT PRINTING WHITE ALL THE TIME!!!! AT LEAST THAT IS OUR FINDINGS SO WITH THAT HOPE THAT HELPS
3.KEEP RIBBIONS CLEAN TO PREVENT THE BANDING AND ERROR CODES. WE WHIP OUT A KWIK RIBBION CLEAN AFTER EVERY 20 T'S AND IT WORKS

Thank you for sharing your experience. As you have found, proper maintenance is the key to keeping all digital garment printers printing well.

The new DTG Viper has resolved the issue of needing to remove white ink from your system when not printing darks. The machine recirculates the white ink through a closed loop - keeping it suspended and filters it on each pass before entering the manifold over the dampers. The white ink is also slow stirred with a paddle in the bulk bottle to further reduce settling.

Hello Gina and Jim,

Are you the same couple that showed up to the Open House hosted by GPT (Graphics Production Technologies) recently in Murrieta?
