Workflows

Use the supported Epson original or Hoson-class / custom route.

Open Markdown

For DTF, print white over color; for DTG, print color over white; UV may use either order according to the material.

Production flow

  1. Confirm the printer and connection; verify channel mapping; select ink and print quality.
  2. Open or import the project or artwork, then confirm pages, layout, and process settings.
  3. Check resolution, media, color, white ink, mirror, layer order, and destination.
  4. Print a small sample and verify color, white coverage, position, and media feed.
  5. After approval, send production output or save PRN.

Stop for missing calibration

A preset name does not guarantee arbitrary hardware, ink, or media.

DTF preflight and sample checklist

  • DTF prints white over color.
  • Use a matching DTF profile; support does not cover arbitrary hardware, ink, or film.
  • Match transfer film, printer, ink, media, and the selected profile.
  • Check mirror, layer order, white ink, and physical channel mapping.
  • Print a sample and inspect color, white coverage, position, and media feed.
  • Perform powdering, baking, and heat pressing outside Yink Studio under the device and material process.

DTG preflight and sample checklist

  • DTG prints color over white.
  • Use a matching DTG profile; support does not cover arbitrary garment hardware.
  • Match the garment or media, printer, ink, and quality configuration.
  • Check placement, output direction, white ink, choke, layer order, and physical channels.
  • Set mirror only when required by the actual process and current configuration.
  • Print a sample and verify color, white coverage, position, and media feed.

UV preflight and sample checklist

  • UV may use either white over color or color over white.
  • Use a matching UV profile; support does not cover arbitrary UV hardware or substrates.
  • Match printer profile, substrate, ink, ICC, job, and resolution.
  • Check white ink, layer order, mirror, substrate placement, page size, and direction.
  • Print a calibration sample and verify color, white coverage, position, and media feed.
  • Perform curing and safety operations outside Yink Studio under the device and material process.

Projects store preset differences and layout, not a portable hardware snapshot. After changing printers or losing a queue, reselect compatible presets and output, then validate a sample.
