How to Use Platonink 5-Head DTF Printer
- Ensure you have the correct power (220V) and sufficient space.

- Create your artwork (PNG format) and load the PET film with the printable side facing correctly. Fill the CMYK and white ink tanks and run a quick nozzle check.
- Send your file through RIP software. The printer first lays down color, then the white layer for opacity.
