4 Questions to Ask After a DTG Test Print

The information gleaned from this will help you on the final job.

Once the DTG printer has completed printing the job, inspect your test print closely while it is still resting on the platen.

  • Is your artwork registered correctly, or do you see any instances of ghosting?
  • Did all elements of your image print properly, or do you need to adjust your file settings?
  • Does your ink density need to be increased, or are you satisfied with the amount of ink the printer laid down?
  • Is your print smooth and clear, or do you notice any instances of “banding” (lines within the design) that could be caused by a clog in your nozzle?
