DTG ink review using Firebird DTG ink for GTX platform, DTG printing, GTX prob

Описание: https://www.firebirdink.com/collectio...

We are going over what we like about the Firebird GTX compatible ink for the GTX pro. We are mainly speaking about the white DTG ink in this video on a few main points.
1: Continuity - how well does the Firebird ink white print on the GTX before the Brother GTX does an auto clean ( Pass)
2: Cost - Savings in using Firebird ink (Pass)
3: Vibrancy : we saw increase vibrancy in the Firebird ink white ink versus GTX Oem white ink. This allowed us to print same profile settings with more vibrant whites or to reduce ink and achieve similar vibrancy. We our using Firebird Gen3 GTX optimized pretreat in the measuring of white vibrancy. We use a SPECTRO 1 as our tool to measure. (Pass)
4: Bleeding and mixing : how does the white gel up next to colors, and bond to colors on top. We saw similar amount of bleeding between OEM and Firebird ink when printing small images with NO Color Pause, biggest culprit being white next to red color. Adding a color pause gave good results with both. (Pass)
5: Curing: Curing time as increased for best wash results in our testing environment, extra curing might be needed because of the brighter vibrancy. Its always recommended to do wash testing with your current cure settings to check. We like reaching the ink to 330F for 30 seconds.
