BLAZER EXPRESS
The new Blazer Express Direct To Garment prints fantastic white ink in just ONE pass!

The entire line of Fast T-Jet™ direct to garment printers are revolutionizing garment decorating! While they won't replace screen printing just yet, the Fast T-Jet's are very impressive. The Fast T-Jet's will never lay down a heavy, rubbery print for athletic printing and numbering, but they will print vibrant, washfast prints on white, light and dark shirts very fast!

Fast T-JET™ Blazer Express is similar to the Fast T-JET™ Blazer . It uses the very robust and fast Epson 4800 as the print engine. It will print vibrant, washfast prints on white, light and dark shirts VERY FAST.

Ink Costs and Production Rates
The two most asked questions about a T-Jet™ are the ink costs and production rates. The following charts show how important the image size and print resolution is.

Many prints work fine at 360dpi, but you deposit more ink when printing at 720dpi. Critical prints, prints with white ink, or prints that need deep color saturation print better at 720dpi. An important point is that the T-Jet2™ and T-Jet™ Jumbo have to print one to three under base prints (and rewind between each pass) and then print the CMYK colors along with a highlight white. The T-Jet™ Giant can print more white with less rewinding. The T-Jet™ Pro HV does not have to rewind! The white ink is printed with the first set of eight heads and then the print moves forward to get the colors with the second eight heads.

There is no loss in production speed on the T-Jet™ Pro HV when printing white ink!

Production rates do not include time to create and rip the image using FastRIP™. Small files can be ripped in under one minute. Larger files may take longer. Files can be queued so they print when the previous job is done.
For dark shirts, rates do not include time to pre-treat shirts which can be done in a matter of seconds away from the printer with unskilled labor. Ink costs include the pretreatment for dark shirts.
Production rates do not include time to rewind the printer between prints. Allow ten seconds for the T-Jet2™ and 15 to 20 seconds for the T-Jet™ Jumbo and Giant. The T-Jet™ Pro HV does not need to rewind and rates include loading and unloading.
