Built according to Ricoh’s world-class standards of engineering and design, the RICOH Ri 2000 delivers uncompromisingly high performance, innovative features, and unrivaled value.
Design
If you can design it, you can print it. Create your graphic using your favorite design software, such as Photoshop, Illustrator, or CorelDRAW. If you prefer, you also can print graphics accepted from customers or other designers as long as they submit the image in PNG, JPG, or TIFF formats.
Once you have your image, prepare for print using the included ColorGATE software. Ricoh’s RIP software options help you get the perfect print by allowing you to position and fine-tune the image for the specific garment style and color.
Whether you are printing on light garments or dark garments, an adult-size t-shirt or extra-small infant onesie, the RICOH Ri 2000 creates gorgeous, eye-popping prints quickly. Our water-based inks are not only environmentally friendly and cost effective, but they also allow you to print on both natural fabrics and synthetic blends like 100% light poly.
When you’re ready, simply load your garment and send your file directly to the printer or to a USB drive for convenient printing.
Cure
Once your print is complete, it is essential to cure the ink into the fabric to ensure a long-lasting printed garment that is easy to clean in a regular washing machine, less likely to fade, feels soft, and resists cracking when stretched. Cure your printed garment using a heat press or tunnel dryer.
RICOH Ri 2000 a DTG & DTF machine in ONE
While DTG printing produces high-quality full size prints with brilliant colors and an incredibly soft hand feel, DTF printing definitely has some benefits that make it the perfect addition for your garment printing business.
Design
Once you have your image, prepare for print using the included ColorGATE software. Ricoh’s RIP software options help you get the perfect print by allowing you to position and fine-tune the image for the specific garment style and color.
And for DTF the only thing you have to change here is the layering order into C -> W, reduce the white amount and mirror your motif.
GOOD TO KNOW
DTF requires less white ink – about 40% white versus 200% white for DTG printing. White ink tends to be the most expensive since more of it is used, so reducing the amount of white ink used for your prints can be quite a money saver.
Place a DTF film on the printer and set the distance between the plate and the print head as small as possible. Now you can start the printing process.
During subsequent printing, the CMYK colors are applied first, followed immediately by a white top layer.
TIP: In the case of smaller motifs, of course, several graphics can also be printed on one film (e.g. to save space using the container function) and later cut out individually and transferred to the fabric.
Powdering
The wet ink must be powdered with a hotmelt adhesive.
There are several ways to do this. For beginners, it is enough to do this manually. Sprinkle the powder evenly on the motif and then shake the film gently to remove excess powder.
TIP: The excess powder can be reused without any problems.
Cure
Once your print is complete and powdered with adhesive glue, it has to be cured in an oven or under a heat press by hovering. Curing time and temperature will vary depending on the adhesive, film and ink.
Easy Application
The transfers are now ready to be pressed onto the chosen product. With DTF you can place your design on hard-to-reach or awkward surfaces and have a wide variety of materials like cotton, nylon, treated leather, polyester, 50/50 blends.
TIP: You can also prepare the transfers and store them for up to 6 months.
Getting a perfect print on the garment of your choice is easy with the help of Ricoh’s RIP software. Use ColorGATE Productionserver, included with your RICOH Ri 1000 or RICOH Ri 2000 digital textile printer, for advanced functionality and vibrant, accurate colors. The optional Spark Design Software allows you to personalize your graphics.
