Procolored F13X Dual Printhead A3 Direct to Film (DTF) Roll Printers

Key Features Dual Epson XP600 Printheads for Faster Production The F13X uses two Epson XP600 printheads in a Dual-Array configuration to roughly double the speed of single-head printing. Procolored rates it at up to 27 Letter/A4 prints per hour at 720 × 1440 dpi in 16-pass mode. Its manual lists about 2 minutes 5 seconds for an A4 transfer and 2 minutes 43 seconds for an A3 transfer. Need finer detail? Switch to 1440 × 1440 dpi, with ink drops as small as 4.5 pL for sharp text, gradients, and fine lines. Vivid, Accurate CMYK + White Color The F13X prints with Procolored's CMYKW ink system from 250 mL bulk tanks, plus a separate moisturizing fluid line. G7-certified color accuracy helps your transfers match your designs from batch to batch, and a strong white underbase keeps colors bright on dark garments. Real-time alerts warn you when ink drops to 20% or the waste tank reaches 80%, so a run never stops by surprise. Built-In White Ink Circulation and Smart Maintenance White DTF ink settles if it sits, which leads to clogs and uneven prints. The F13X circulates white ink every 20 minutes and stirs it with a motor to keep it mixed. Its printheads are automatically sealed and moisturized while idle, and when the printer is left on, it runs a cleaning about every 3 hours and moisturizing about every 6 hours. An AI camera reads the nozzle test, runs an auto-clean if it's needed, and checks again, so you don't need to print every day to keep it healthy. Easy Setup and Control With Procolored Studio Procolored Studio is included with no dongle. It runs on Windows 10 or later and on Macs with Apple M-series chips, with Intel Mac support planned. It accepts PNG, JPG, BMP, TIFF, WEBP, and SVG files and handles mirroring, white and color output, job queues, and maintenance commands. A 5-inch touchscreen on the printer controls jobs, cleaning, white ink circulation, moisturizing, film feed and rewind, and a child lock. It connects by Ethernet or USB, with an Ethernet adapter included. How DTF Printing Works With the F13X Design: Prepare your artwork in Procolored Studio. Print: The F13X prints color plus a white underbase onto PET film. Powder: Apply DTF hot-melt adhesive powder by hand or with a compatible automatic shaker. Cure: Melt the powder in a separate DTF curing oven or shaker oven. Press and peel: Heat press the transfer onto your garment and peel the film. The F13X doesn't have a built-in shaker or curing oven. You'll need a separate oven or shaker to finish transfers.
