Direct-to-Garment T-Shirt Printer for Professional Custom Apparel Production
This advanced direct-to-garment (DTG) printing solution delivers vibrant, durable, and high-resolution designs directly onto cotton and blended fabrics—ideal for entrepreneurs, small businesses, and print shops aiming to offer premium custom apparel. Engineered with precision engineering and textile-specific ink technology, this machine supports both bidirectional and unidirectional printing modes, ensuring flexibility in workflow while maintaining exceptional image quality across a wide range of garment types.
At the heart of the system lies a dual Epson XP600 printhead configuration, which enables rapid production cycles without compromising on detail. With support for CMYK+White ink combinations, it produces rich color depth and excellent opacity—even on dark garments—making it perfect for creating eye-catching t-shirts, hoodies, and other wearable art pieces. The large-capacity refillable ink bottles reduce downtime and lower long-term operational costs, especially when compared to cartridge-based systems commonly found in consumer-grade printers.
Key specifications include a maximum printable area of 33cm x 43cm (or 29.5cm x 39.5cm when printing on t-shirts), allowing full-coverage designs on standard apparel sizes. The printer’s adjustable height mechanism—available in both automatic and manual settings—ensures optimal alignment regardless of fabric thickness, accommodating materials from thin cotton tees up to thick sweatshirts or even padded jackets (up to 5cm thick). This versatility makes it suitable not only for fashion startups but also for event merchandise, promotional wear, and branded uniforms.
Print resolution options of 16-pass, 12-pass, and 8-pass allow users to balance speed and quality based on their project needs. Whether you're producing one-off custom items or running batch orders, the machine maintains consistent output with a print cycle time of just two minutes per piece. Its compact footprint of 73cm x 69cm x 45cm and lightweight design (56kg dry weight, 75kg with packaging) make it easy to integrate into existing studio spaces or mobile setups.
Designed for seamless integration into modern creative workflows, the printer runs on Windows 7, 8, or XP operating systems and includes RIPrint software—a powerful tool that simplifies image preparation, color calibration, and job queue management. The included breathability and wash resistance features ensure that printed garments retain their vibrancy after multiple washes, meeting professional standards expected by customers worldwide.
Common applications include personalized sportswear, corporate branding, limited-run fashion collections, and on-demand customization services. It’s particularly popular among e-commerce sellers targeting markets in North America, Europe, Australia, and beyond who seek reliable, scalable solutions for digital textile printing.
Users praise its ease of setup, minimal maintenance requirements, and ability to produce commercial-grade results without extensive training. Many note how the white ink layer enhances contrast on dark fabrics, enabling intricate artwork that rivals traditional screen printing methods—but at a fraction of the cost and setup time.

A: Yes—it comes with intuitive RIPrint software and clear instructions, making it accessible for new users while still offering advanced controls for experienced operators. Q: How often do I need to clean the printheads? A: Routine cleaning every 1–2 weeks is recommended depending on usage frequency and ink type. The system includes automated cleaning functions to extend head life and prevent clogs. Q: Can I print on polyester blends?
