Hi everyone,
Ive been comparing this machine with the brother 541. Im actually after a printer that can print with a certain look, i am not going for that plastic texture you can feel on some certain prints. I want something that feels like its part of the t shirt oppose to stuck on the t shirt.



this image is from cotton on but its the type of print texture im going for.



This one of my designs that i would like to print but the dimensions wont be as big. Just want the same texture as the first. Im afraid to print and have a plastic feel.

DTG printers have the feel you are after. I know exactly what your talking about and I am the same way. You will love DTG!
Alter Ego,
Good Monday to you.
Do we know the word "free sample"? :)
Your image is pretty big size.
I am sure most DTGs will give you feeling you like but not all in same quality. Make any art work or take a picture and send to all of printer sellers with saying image size, color of shirts, delivery date = you will be the King and many free shirts!
Cheers! Beers are on me always.
Hey AA, do you mean local printers or big company printers? I would love to get a DTG sample of a design I have.

Lol, If you want to resell or shirts is for yourself local printer is your choice. If you want to buy the Dtg machine all machine sellers are your choice. However, if you wear those sample from machine resellers you will be a walking billboard because we all put our name big on it.:)
What do you mean "big company printers"?

Okay thanks i just wanted to know before i take a long drive to the company to see a demo.

It would be worth the drive, you will be pleased and satisfied with the prints. Also, the video you showed was for printing on a black shirt which has a slightly different feel from the white/light colored shirts. Its not the plastic feeling you are thinking but its still soft and has a great feel but your prints from the looks of it will not require white ink (looking at these 2 only).

If you are bringing artwork with you, I highly suggest you bring artwork that will require white ink (prints on a dark shirt) so that you can see the difference in timing, feel and processes. If you don't have any, the "Tigers" have great artwork and have them print you one.

You would need to get with AA regarding their recommendations regarding garments. In the DTG world, the higher cotton content is suggested. But, with new pretreat and processes the less cotton content is becoming easier to working with.

I think you will be glad to hear that that the NeoFlex can almost print that wide. Also due to the way the software manipulates the white ink when printing the feel is always as soft as possible without sacrificing color density or brightness.

Also the video you saw was a very long time ago just shortly after we launched the said software. Due to tweaks in the software itself that print will print in less than 3 minutes, rather than the 3 minutes + you saw in the video

Here is a print that showcases some of the capabilities fairly well.

That is not a 12 inch ruler if you look closely it is 24 inches. Many people mistake it for a 12 inch and think "oh nice print".

PM me if you would like to submit a sample request.
