Proper humidity level CRUCIAL for digital garment printers

Yep Harry its that time again. I have been using my humidifier for the last couple of weeks already. I agree about the hydgometer, I got one at lows that is magnetic and sticks right to my machine, I think it was only about $15. I also use the hot air humidifiers as I have found the cool air ones dont put out near as much moisture and the hot air ones.

I have had mine going for a couple of weeks also.
Sunny I have never heard of a hot air one (I learn alot) May have to get one of those too
Thanks for the tip.

Ok I might have worded that incorrectly haha, its a hot steam one, not air

ha ha
I am sure I would have figured it out once I got to the store
I am full of hot air though (not really)

Air conditioning works a treat as well. I have a split system in my printing room and it is set at a constent temp. This also resutls in The garment itself not taking on too much moisture before printing. As we hang a couple of racks each night for the morning run we do not want damp T's in the morning. If you do have a AC unit be sure to have the air flow so it does not bolw dircetly onto the machine or in the area of the machine, this can cause excess dust and air blowing under the printhead whilst printing and you will get alot of ink spay dust. Also it is important to keep your filters clean to also prevent dust flying around.
We are coming into summer over here in Australia and we get alot of afternoon storms which gives us very high Humidty and very sticky sweety early evenings. It is a pain in the but when others come around and leave the doors open or the wife comes in and opens all the windows. Im sure she was born in a tent LOL.
