Can you buy the additional blankets for the DF1 as the DF14 makes the package £400 more expensive

Great, you have chosen the excellent rhico option, now it is mug press dilemma!!!
Bread and butter is big standard 10 or 11 oz mugs, the minis and china and slanted cups are nice but each is an extra blanket at about £65 each. If you think these options are important to your business growth then makesure you choose a mug press that can take options. Soz but cannot advise here, but the £400 prize mug press from the lottery compmseemed to do it all. Suggest you up to £600 and get the best straight away, nothing wors than waisted time AND materials. Don't Buy Cheap....

I was just looking at that option... for an extra £60 you can get the DF12 which I think I might do so it saves time and money in the long run... to start I will most likely be doing 11oz mugs and possibley money boxes....

You can buy replacement standard blankets and additional thicker blankets for the DF1 but the latte blankets won't be suitable in the DF1 as the DF14 is slightly different to take these blankets in addition to the DF1

Is the DF12 just the DF1 with extra blanket? as this is the one I will most likely be looking to buy....

right okay... I think im gonna just start on the DF1 or DF12 and then if I choose to offer different mug again cross that bridge when I get there..... This sublimation game aint cheap is it :-p

bms your taking all my pocket money

p.s @bms can you also do the money boxes with the DF1 or again do you need the more expensive one?

I have recently bought the DF1 and Ricoh from BMS - and after initially confusing myself over a button (I shudder with embarrassment now!) I have to say it has been extremely straight forward and hassle-free (touch wood!!!!).... I too have just ordered some moneyboxes from BMS so will let you know how I get on with them, but should be just like mugs, which are very simple to press!

(no sure if the DF1 does small/kids cups though?)

Happy printing - and good luck!

Yes you can do money boxes in the DF1
