Repeat and direct printing functions
You can connect a commercially available USB memory
stick directly to the printer. This allows you to save
print-ready data (spooled) to a USB memory stick and
print the jobs again. It also allows you to print when you
cannot connect a computer to the printer.
Easy-to-use software
We have provided
Garment Creator
software that
specializes in pigment ink textile printing to achieve
high quality output. The easy-to-use graphical user
interface increases efficiency.
To print on dark colored T-shirts, you need to print the
white base first; however, the specialized software
creates the base data automatically according to the
simulated image for easy printing. You can even
calculate the basic costs by performing a simulation
using your simulated image.
The printer also supports the printer management
software
Epson Control Dashboard for DTG
that
allows you to monitor the status of several connected
printers from a remote location, and acquire a variety of
useful information provided by Epson over the Internet.
