  4. 04

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the Kickstart Printer Program.

Browse equipment & supplies
Which printer is right for a new business?

Start with what you want to sell. Apparel decorators usually begin with a DTF printer. Personalized products and promo items point to a UV flatbed. Signs, banners, decals and wraps call for an eco-solvent printer/cutter.

What's the difference between DTF, UV and eco-solvent printing?

DTF (direct-to-film) prints onto film that's heat-pressed onto fabric. UV printers cure ink instantly with UV-LED light, so you can print directly onto objects and rigid materials. Eco-solvent printers produce durable, vivid roll-to-roll graphics for indoor and outdoor signage and wraps.

Do I need printing experience to get started?

No. Desktop models in particular are designed for first-time users, and our team is here to answer questions about setup, media and workflow as you learn.

Where do I find what's included with each printer?

Every printer's product page lists its specifications, configurations and shipping and pickup information. If you have a question that isn't covered, reach out to our team before you order.

Can I buy inks, film and media here too?

Yes. McLogan Supply stocks the consumables to keep your printer running, so you can order your machine and everything it needs in one place.
