Hi All. I have a DTG with an epson 1390 print head bought from China.
It works reall well BUT white ink is doing my brain in. I can run 3 0r 4 prints then the head clogs ( white only). Im using Dupont as the chinese white is crap. The white is filtered twice before entering the cartridge. Any sugestions please.

Until you get a system going and stick to it

Hi all !
I am from Belgium, you know, that small country in Europe

We have bought an Epson 1390, in Chian, of course... I have this printer for a couple of months now, and I have the one problem after the other.
I have now found that the right ink would solve a lot of my problems, but I can't test it out, as i get directly a red light at the droplet sign. The computer says there's no ink, and that the cartridges are not compatible.
Help anyone ?

CSIC Board is a sub board with connectors that connect the ink cart chip with the motherboard

Isn't it possible it is the printhead ?

Salut.
As tu trouvé une solution pour ton Imprimante. Moi, j'ai acheté la même, Epson 1390, en Chine. , la lumière d'encre reste allumée sous le conseil de technicien chinois, j'ai changé 3 fois la puce noir qui relie la tété à la carte mère, cela ne fonctionne toujours pas. J'ai des encres blancs venant de chine. As tu trouvé une solution à ton problème? ou quelcun peut il m'aider : mon mail [email protected].

Do you mind sharing how you made the white ink work? I am really stressing out on this.

Use RIP software

I have both softwares white and color, but the printer is not printing white on my dark garments. Any suggestions.

Oops... sorry I didn't realize this is page 2.
Be careful with DuPont as well as any other ink ... There is more than one viscosity.
