Default Is the kornit the only printer to pretreat dark colour tees?

Hello everybody
I am like many looking at investing in DTG
the problem I have is to have to pretreat my tees before printing on black.
so here is my question: is there an other printer (other than kornit) that will do that for me.

looking forward for an answer.

bruno

As far as I know, only the Kornit has the pretreatment laid down by the printer itself. There are several companies that are coming out or have come out with an automatic pretreatment machine. The latest one is called the SpeedTreater from Equipment Zone (www.equipmentzone.com). You might want to look into whether these pretreatment machines will work for you as well. The other companies that are or were in the process of releasing a pretreatment machines are US Screen, Belquette and All American.

Hope this helps.

Mark
