Roll-Fed DTF Printer with Powder Shaker & Oven

ColDesi DTF-19H2 Printer and Shaker/Dryer System

The DTF-19H2 is a commercial direct-to-film setup for shops that want real production volume but do not have room to give up to a wide-format machine. Two Epson i1600 heads print color and white, and the matched 20 inch powder shaker and oven cures each transfer the moment it comes off the printer.

Run it as one continuous line. You print, the shaker lays down adhesive and the oven sets it, and finished film feeds out the back ready for the heat press.

A Full DTF Line That Fits a Working Studio

Bringing DTF in house usually forces a choice between a hobby printer that cannot keep pace and a wide-format rig that swallows your floor and your budget. The 19H2 lands between those two. It moves enough work to fill paying orders, and the printer and dryer together occupy roughly a 4 by 9 foot area.

It also takes the parts of DTF that usually trip people up off the operator's plate. Ink supply, white ink circulation, film tension, and powder release are all handled by the machine, so your time goes toward running jobs rather than nursing the equipment.

Key Features

Twin Epson i1600 Printheads

Two Epson i1600 heads do the printing. Color goes down first, then a white underbase registered right behind it, which is what gives you clean edges, readable small text, and color solid enough to stand next to a screen print. Gradients stay smooth and thin lines stay crisp across most garment types.

Self-Adjusting Film Tension (Dancer System)

DTF film has to feed at a steady tension or prints start to wander and wrinkle. The 19H2 manages that on its own. A sensor-fed dancer bar with its own drive motor releases more film at the exact moment a run calls for it, which keeps slack, stretch, and registration drift out of the finished transfer.

OEKO-TEX® ECO PASSPORT Certified Inks

The water-based inks carry OEKO-TEX® ECO PASSPORT certification. Put plainly, an independent body has tested them against international limits on chemical content for textile production, so you know what is and is not going onto the garment.

Print Optimizer V2 Software, No Dongle

Print Optimizer V2 ships with the printer and runs keyless, so there is no USB dongle to lose. It hands you control over ink volume, color, and output quality, whether the file is a photo-detailed graphic or a single-color shop logo.

Site and Setup

The 19H2 ships to your receiving area, and uncrating and setup are on you. Both units sit on casters and roll easily once they are out of the crates, but plan on three or four people for the move, since the dryer is heavy and stairs make it trickier.

Power and Airflow 110V, 20A service The printer draws power through the shaker/dryer, which also runs the oven and take-up reel Around 240 CFM of room exhaust is recommended on top of the built-in extractor	Weights Printer: 225 lb set up, about 375 lb crated Shaker and dryer: 558 lb, about 708 lb crated
Footprint Printer and stand: 24" x 48" Shaker and dryer: 74" x 30" Combined area: 48" x 108" Leave roughly 36" of clearance around the system	Room and PC Clean room with low dust Hold it between 60 and 80°F at 50 to 70 percent humidity A dedicated Windows 10 or newer PC on Ethernet, 32 GB RAM and a 500 GB SSD recommended

Holding the room in that temperature and humidity range protects the printheads, so it is worth parking a hygrometer next to the machine to keep an eye on conditions. Full measurements and clearances are in the DTF-19H2 site readiness sheet.

Buying It From ColDesi

ColDesi has spent decades putting decoration equipment in apparel shops and staying on the phone afterward. The 19H2 arrives with its software, a startup and maintenance kit, a one year warranty with six months on the printheads, and seven-day-a-week support from DTF technicians around the country. You are not piecing this together alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the price include the shaker and dryer?

Yes. The 19H2 is sold as a pair, the two-head printer plus the 20 inch powder shaker and oven, and the oven has its own fume extractor. You can print, powder, and cure without buying a separate dryer.

What heads does it use, and how fast does it run?

It runs two Epson i1600 printheads at 40.5 linear feet per hour, printing CMYK and a white underbase.

How much power and space does it need?

It runs on a 110V, 20A circuit, with the printer powered through the shaker/dryer. Set aside a clean room held at 60 to 80°F and 50 to 70 percent humidity, and figure on about 240 CFM of exhaust airflow.

What computer and software does it run on?

Print Optimizer V2 comes with the printer and runs keyless on a dedicated Windows 10 or newer PC connected by Ethernet. ColDesi recommends 32 GB of RAM and a 500 GB SSD.

Are the inks tested for safety?

They are. ColDesi's water-based DTF inks hold OEKO-TEX® ECO PASSPORT certification, which means an independent lab has checked them against international limits for chemical content in textile production.

What do I get in the box?

The printer and shaker/dryer, Print Optimizer V2, a startup and maintenance kit, a ClickWear license, a one year warranty with six months on the heads, and online self-paced training with assembly support.
