1.2 DTG TEX Textile Inks
Using Other Ink Brands
Your DTG Kiosk package included bottles of DTG TEX Textile Inks. This is a specially
formulated, water based pigment ink. DO NOT mix other ink brands with your DTG TEX Textile
inks. This can create major problems. While we strongly recommend you use only DTG TEX
Textile inks, if you do decide to try another brand of textile ink you must flush out the
complete ink system using a specially formulated flushing solution available from Impression
Technology
before putting another brand of ink into your system. Mixing inks, even a very small
amount, may cause severe and permanent clogging of the printing head.
Using Other Ink Types
Similarly, if you wish to change your ink type from DTG TEX to DTG UNI for printing on non-
textile materials (or vice-versa), you will need to thoroughly flush the DTG Kiosk ink system of
the old ink before charging with the new ink. Whilst this process is relatively straight-forward,
it will take approximately ½ - 1 hour of your time, and does “waste” a fair amount of ink.
Please Note:
Never attempt to use a non-water based ink in your DTG Kiosk – even mild solvent
based inks may cause irreparable damage to the ink tubes, ink valves or even the
print head.
Impression Technology cannot guarantee the performance of your DTG Kiosk
if
you choose to run any ink other than DTG TEX or DTG UNI in your DTG Kiosk.
