FAQs on DTF Printer for Beginners

1. Which DTF printer is best for beginners?

If you are just starting out with DTF printing, the Linko L402 is the best choice. It is an A3-sized printer that is easy to operate and affordable while still maintaining quality (up to DPI). Ideal for small batches of T-shirts (5-10 pieces per hour). If you are looking for more professional results, the Linko A602 (24-inch, dual I print heads) and B (24-inch, four I print heads) are also reliable and better suited for large batches.
