I have the NeoFlex MK1. Owned it for 5 years and still love it. The RIP software is just as important as the hardware and some offerings out there produce horrible results.

I'm often stunned at the quality of print my NeoFlex produce. Here's a couple I did recently.

Stitch up, do you have the demand enabling it's use daily or have you learnt how to manage it so heads doesn't block up as others say can happen. The output looks great, especially the cats eyes shirt.

DTG is not for the faint hearted or those not prepared to take things apart.

Due to being unwell throughout February I didn't print one shirt in nearly 5 weeks! It took me about 2 hours to get things working again yesterday - a good clean around the capping station, a shake of the dampers and soak and flush the printhead.

I printed a few shirts yesterday and this one today - grey is a difficult colour to get right from CMYK but the RIP has done a good job.
