HY-401 30cm Desktop DTF Printer

Single Epson XP600 head, 30cm width, auto white-ink circulation - entry-level DTF for sampling and short runs.

Overview

The HY-401 is a 30 cm desktop direct-to-film printer built around a single Epson XP600 printhead and a CMYK + White ink configuration. It targets A3 on-demand work - sampling, custom apparel one-offs, and short DTF runs - where the priority is print quality, low waste and predictable daily uptime rather than volume throughput.

Key features

  • Single Epson XP600 head with variable-dot output for smooth gradients and crisp micro-text. CMYK + White stacking is managed in the RIP for strong coverage on dark fabrics.
  • 300 mm print width sized for A3 jobs; reference throughput ≈ 1.2 m²/h at 6-pass, design-dependent.
  • Auto white-ink stirring and circulation, with scheduled purging and capping, reduces white-ink sedimentation during idle periods - the most common failure mode on entry-level DTF setups.
  • Auto-suction platen and one-click forward/back film feed keep film flat and registered, reducing wrinkles, skew and banding on long jobs.
  • MAINTOP / PhotoPRINT RIP support with ICC and density-profile color workflows; runs on Windows 7 / Windows 10.
  • No weeding, no screens, low waste - a DTF workflow that’s faster to set up than DTG for short runs and more flexible than screen printing on small orders.

Who it’s for

Custom-apparel shops, print bureaus, gift personalizers and contract printers starting in DTF or needing a dedicated sampling machine alongside larger production gear. Typical applications: T-shirts, hoodies, tote bags, caps and customized gift items.

Need higher throughput on the same DTF workflow? See the HY-702 60cm production DTF printer - dual Epson i3200-A1 heads and an integrated powder shaker for volume work.

Frequently asked questions

What is the print width of the HY-401?

The HY-401 prints up to 300 mm (30 cm) wide on PET transfer film - well suited to A3 sampling, on-demand jobs and short DTF runs.

What printhead does the HY-401 use?

A single Epson XP600 printhead with variable-dot output, delivering smooth gradients and crisp micro-text in the CMYK + White DTF configuration.

How does the HY-401 keep white ink from clogging?

The white-ink line uses auto stirring and continuous circulation, plus scheduled purging and capping, to reduce sedimentation during idle periods and minimize daily maintenance time.

Do garments need pretreatment with the HY-401?

No. DTF is a transfer process: print artwork on PET film, apply adhesive powder, cure, then heat-press to the garment at 150–165 °C for 8–15 s. No pretreatment, no weeding, no screens.

How fast is the HY-401 and what daily output can I expect?

The HY-401 runs at roughly 1.2 m²/h in 6-pass mode (design-dependent), sized for sampling, one-offs and short DTF runs rather than high-volume production. For 600 mm production throughput on the same DTF workflow, step up to the dual-head HY-702.

Which fabrics can the HY-401 print on?

DTF transfers bond to virtually any fabric - cotton, polyester, cotton/poly blends, nylon, canvas and leather, light or dark - with no garment pretreatment. You print artwork on PET film, apply adhesive powder, cure, then heat-press to the garment at 150-165 °C for 8-15 s.
