Just wondering if Epson pigment ink would stay on T shirts??

 

[splathead]

Both pigment and dye inks from Epson will stay on shirts using the right transfer paper. Dye inks will fade more than pigment.

I am thinking Direct to Garment printing,,

Well, Epson makes a DTG printer. So, yes.

If you're referring to desktop Epson pigment ink, I'm not sure they sell other than cartridges.

what I want to fined out is can Bulk Pigment ink be used
to print on white shirts with Dtg printer, would it survive a few wash?

All DTG printers use pigment ink.

Yes I know that,, however a mostly used ink for garment printing is Textile ink,, either dupont
or some other bands..

OK, so, what is your question again?

It would, in all probability, mostly wash off.

Dupont

NOPE, Wrong.

 

[frankdoyal05]

Maybe I did not make it clear,,, I am printing with DTG printer, not using transfer paper../

Pointed to Splat,

What I meant to say is all DIY printers start out with either dye or pigment ink from the factory, but....you either start with a new printer and do not install the original carts or you must clean all of the original ink out of the lines before installing the textile ink.
