Also interested in the Spectra.spectra Dtg printer need information on performer quality printing and service . thanks .
Thanks for the recommendation, I've since bought 2 Spectra's and I've have been happy so far. What ink are you using?Spectra's printers are excellent printers. They produce high quality prints. I have several Spectras and am happy with them. I also own a big name printer...bought my spectra when that one went south on me...it's since been repaired and is back in production again after being away for several months.
The reality is you can buy one big name printer for what you can buy 2-4 Spectra's for. This gives you more production capacity, and if a printer breaks down (they all do), you aren't completely out of business. They offer standby modules so that you can quickly change out the main printer body and get back into production while you service (or have serviced) the one that isn't working good. This to me is a life saver. When my first printer failed, it was in the middle of a huge run...and I had no backup.
ALL DTG printers require maintenance. Spectra may require a little more technical ability than high end printers, but it's absolutely worth it.

Not sure if you are aware of what is going on with Spectra, but it appears they are out of business...with the money of several of the forum members.Thanks for the recommendation, I've since bought 2 Spectra's and I've have been happy so far. What ink are you using?
You can buy all the spectras you want but once they go out of business which they did, you go out of it too. Nobody to talk to for warranty or repairs or sending them your broken unit and renting one of theirs etc.Spectra's printers are excellent printers. They produce high quality prints.
