How to Choose the Right Sublimation DTF Printer Plotter?
April 06,2022
With the continuous progress of printing technology, the sublimation DTF printer plotter not only popularized the original engineering technology industry but also opened up many new application fields.
Sublimation DTF printer plotter has been widely recognized in many industries such as digital imaging, POP posters, printing plate making, digital proofing, corporate office, medical imaging, and so on.
But in the face of many models of products on the market, how do we choose a sublimation DTF printer plotter that is suitable for our use? Next, in this blog, I will share some buying tips for you.
3 Tips for Choosing Sublimation DTF Printer Plotter

- Consider accuracy
Accuracy is the most critical indicator to measure a machine. Now the accuracy of mainstream equipment is generally within ±1‰.
The quality of the paper affects the accuracy. To improve the printing accuracy, some manufacturers' devices support the accuracy adjustment, which can be compensated by adjustment for different papers, thereby improving the printing accuracy of the paper moving direction. However, some manufacturers' devices do not support precision adjustment. The engineering technology industry generally has certain precision requirements.
- Choose color
There are many varieties of sublimation DTF printer plotters on the market, with four colors, five colors, six colors, etc.? Here you need to understand the concepts of color gamut and color accuracy.
The color gamut of the sublimation DTF printer plotter is simply the color range that the printer can print. Ideally, the printer can print any color with three colors of ink: C (cyan), M (magenta), and Y (yellow).
To be able to print more colors, manufacturers have added intermediate color inks based on the three base colors to mix colors.
When purchasing the sublimation DTF printer plotter, we choose the product according to the color gamut requirements of the printing content.
- Pay attention to print speed
Most manufacturers indicate the fastest printing speed in the product documentation. Users are most likely to be misled by this maximum speed, and the actual user experience is often far from it.
First, some manufacturers mark the mechanical printing speed, which does not include the printer operation time and preparation time. Second, the speed indicated by the manufacturer is the speed of the lowest quality. Therefore, the maximum speed indicated in the product documentation has no reference value.
The bigger the memory and hard disk, the faster the printing? In the case of sufficient space, the memory will not affect the printing speed.
The relationship between speed and quality. The higher the quality print mode is, the slower the print speed will be.
Last But Not Least
The operation of the sublimation DTF printer plotter is also a problem that cannot be ignored. Factors such as the area used by the plotter and the cutting system of the paper will affect the normal use of the equipment.
Therefore, we need to know the relevant information about the product before purchasing the sublimation DTF printer plotter. In addition, some good auxiliary functions facilitate convenient and efficient use of the device.
