Not with the Epson, we have had the printer for several months and it has been flawless! The peace of mind knowing that the machine is going to print well every time is valuable to us. Our previous printer had quality issues occasionally print with banding, or have a color dropped out. Have you owned other DTG printers? If so, how does the F2000 compare? Yes, … an Anajet mp10i. Look on ebay and craigslist you’ll get a quick feeling of what is valued and what is not. We had an Anajet and had problems from day one. Affordable price, great reviews online by other users, hardly any used ones for sale out there. Why did you decide to purchase the Epson F2000? Great warranty, Epson will come to us when we need help. Thank you, Melco for helping make my business successful.
#MELCO DESIGN EXPRESS HOW TO#
I know that if I have mechanical issues with any of my machines or need suggestions on how to run a specific item, I just need to make a phone call to a Melco technician for assistance. I have learned to use them with a variety of processes including tackle twill, 3D foam caps, luggage, and backpacks. Twelve years later, I now have four machines. It has definitely helped me become more efficient for my own processes and improve the products and services I can provide to my customers. I jumped at the opportunity and have never regretted it because of how much I learned during the process. At one point, Melco offered to use me as a beta test site for one of their machines and work with the design engineers to help them improve all aspects of their new designs.
#MELCO DESIGN EXPRESS TRIAL#
The progression of my abilities in my new field improved as I went through trial and error periods, but the service technicians were by my side. As with any new, high-tech piece of equipment, the technicians at Melco were helpful with fine-tune adjustments. Their training classes in digitizing logos and the operation of the machine are instrumental in the proper operation and job flow procedures. Melco assisted me in setting up the machine and giving me tips and … training, as I began my venture into the field of embroidery. After attending the seminar, I felt comfortable enough to purchase my first AMAYA. The possibility of changing careers and starting a new embroidery business was intriguing and frightening at the same time. It was suggested to me by a close relative that I should attend a seminar on starting your own business. My first experience with Melco was in 2002, after a long career in another field. The others are now obsolete!” Read more “Epson has set a new standard for the DTG industry!” While it’s a serious investment, I would not hesitate to recommend the Epson F2000 to anyone serious about the DTG business. A huge advantage of working with Melco is the availability of on-site service if needed. The documentation that comes with the F2000 is superior and can save hours on the phone with tech support and shorten the learning curve greatly.
#MELCO DESIGN EXPRESS SOFTWARE#
The software … is easy to learn and use, providing more options and flexibility than many operators will ever need, yet is intuitive enough for anyone to understand and use.
Along with Epson’s Ultra Chrome Ink, the finished product is truly the best ever. It far and away outperforms anything else with which I have had the experience. There is no doubt in my mind that Epson has set a new standard for the DTG industry! The F2000 is my third DTG printer in six or seven years in the DTG business. We can fix this, but it is much easier with the text as curves.“I have been running Epson’s SureColor F2000 (white) DTG printer and have printed hundreds of shirts. Otherwise if our system does not have the font (we don't own every one of them out there) it will substitute a closest match (which may not be what you want). If you can't send a jpg file and are sending a graphic with the font active, please change the text to curves. It is generic and can be saved / exported by just about every piece of software available. These are the most common formats, but if you have a format not listed here send it anyway, we are pretty good at this.
