Necessary Items
To print on a T-shirt using this printer, you also need the
following devices and parts. Prepare the necessary items
according to your purpose.
Heat press (commercially available)
This is used to remove creases from T-shirts, and to
fixate the pre-treatment liquid and ink. The heat press
needs to be larger than your platen and to be able to
sustain 170 °C or more for 90 seconds. We recommend a
heat press with a foam sheet or mat to allow the steam to
escape. If these are not supplied, you need to acquire
them beforehand. See the following for the platen sizes.

page 87
Oven (commercially available)
This is used to fixate the ink after printing. This is not
necessary if you have a heat press.
Heat-resistant release sheet (commercially
available)
This is placed over the T-shirt to prevent any
pre-treatment liquid or ink from sticking to the press
side of the heat press.
Use silicon paper, fluoro-resin sheets, and so on.
Silicon sheets tend to produce a matte effect, whereas
fluoro-resin sheets tend to produce a glossy effect.
T-shirts (commercially available)
We recommend the following quality.
Cotton blend ratio: 100 to 50%
We recommend 100% cotton, with thick and
close-woven material. We also recommend making a
test print in advance since the print quality cannot
always be guaranteed for some types of fabric.
Pre-treatment liquid (consumable)
This is necessary when printing using White ink. If
pre-treatment liquid is not applied, White ink does not
develop and its whiteness does not show. Also, colors
that are printed on the White ink do not develop.
Use a roller or spray to apply the pre-treatment liquid to
the T-shirt.
U “Options and Consumable Products” on
page 87
Pure water (commercially available)
Pure water, such as distilled and purified water, is used
to dilute the pre-treatment liquid.
Pre-treatment liquid roller (option or commercially
available)
This is used to apply pre-treatment liquid to the
T-shirts. Choose a roller with the roller section made of
short polyester fiber with excellent liquid absorption
such as a paint roller. We recommend that the handle of
the roller is made from aluminum to prevent rusting.
A roller can apply the liquid better to uneven areas such
as pockets, and wastes less liquid from splashing
compared to sprays. Be sure to apply the liquid evenly;
otherwise, the whiteness may not be brilliant or colors
may appear irregularly.
You also need a tray to allow the pre-treatment liquid to
soak into the roller.
The roller section, handle (roller's handle) and the tray
are provided as an optional set.

Spray bottle (commercially available)
This is used to spray the pre-treatment liquid onto the
T-shirts. Prepare a bottle that allows you to spray a fine
mist (we recommend an electric spray bottle).
Compared to the roller, using a spray is quick and easy.
However, the pre-treatment liquid is often wasted as it
sprays beyond the edges of the T-shirt, you also need to
secure a space to use the spray.
Sticky tape or a sticky roller (commercially available)
This is used to remove lint from the print surface of the
T-shirt.
Hard roller (option or commercially available)
This is used to press the fibers flat on the print surface of
the T-shirt. Prepare a hard roller that is different from
the one you use to apply pre-treatment liquid.
