User`s manual
Spray Gun. (If you purchased your printer outside of
the USA, your machine may NOT include the control
sprayer. These guns are fairly inexpensive ($70 USD at
home improvement stores.) However, these are not
designed for high volume work, therefore you should
keep an extra gun handy as backup.
Cleaning the gun is simple and should be done on a
regular basis to extend the life of your sprayer. Just ll up the storage bottle with
water and run it through the gun as you would normally dispense any other
solution.
Types of Pretreatment
Currently we offer three types of Pretreatment-FastINK Textile Pretreatment,
FastBRIGHT Textile Pretreatment and FastCOLOR Textile Pretreatment:
FastINKPretreatmentisspecicallydesignedforuseon• Dark
colored garments, allowing for extremely bright Whites and vibrant
colors. FastINK Pretreatment should only be used with medium to
dark colored garments due to possible discoloration of light shirts
when exposed to direct sunlight.
FastBRIGHT•
Pretreatment works extremely well with light colored
garments and images that have an Underbase. Using FastBRIGHT
creates vibrant images with rich, deep Blacks and Reds that will
not discolor when exposed to direct sunlight.
FastCOLOR reduces cure times while GREATLY •
increasing the color brilliance and washability of your
print. This pretreatment is designed for use with images
on light colored shirts and containing NO White ink.
DO NOT mix any of the Pretreatments together or the result will be
ruined shirts.
Proper Pretreatment Application is Critical
All of our Pretreatments are specially formulated liquids
that prevent ink pigments from being absorbed by the
fabric of a garment. When applying a Pretreatment
solution, do not saturate the garment! You don’t want the
shirt to be soaking wet.
