Kornits, the super expensive ones like $750K each.

What do you want to know? Their production facility is around the corner from us.

Thanks Pierre, looking for a DTG partner and doing a bit of sleuthing before I engage in a official conversation with them.

I would suggest you find someone with an M&R Maverick, out of all the samples I've ever gotten the Maverick produces the nicest looking prints in my opinion.

I've gotten the same print done on Maverick, Kornit, Ovaljet, Brother,

Maybe look into https://empirebrandingco.com (https://empirebrandingco.com) unless you are looking for an automated solution, https://imprintmaker.com (https://imprintmaker.com) is on the West Coast so probably wrong coast

However still comes down to operator, pre-press, ect.

you will do much better on your own than any of the services out there. None of the really big stores are ready or willing.
With a good DTG it's not that hard. I can get you most of the info you would need.

did you see anything from the new EPSON?

While the printers have some differences and limitations, more than anything else it's the operator that makes the biggest difference. We spent three months testing ours and are getting unbelievable results. And that's with CMYK. I would imagine with a Hexa there would be no difference from what you see on your monitor and the prints.

But the bottom line is, the amount of pretreat, amount of ink, the curing and of course the garment. Dial all of those in and the results are as good as screenprinting. Even on the CMYK Kornits which have the worst color gamut. . .

I got some DTG done with Pierre and the quality was amazing.

Looking forward to when things calm down or get semi normal and we can explore that more.

But yeah the Epsons print nice
