HY-401 desktop DTF overview

The HY-401 is a 30 cm desktop DTF printer for A3 sampling, personalized apparel and short production runs. Its single Epson XP600 head and CMYK plus white ink configuration prioritize a compact workflow over production-width throughput.

For a 60 cm line with dual Epson i3200-A1 heads, compare the HY-702 production DTF printer. The matching DTF ink system should be qualified together with the intended film, powder and fabric.

Questions before you configure

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 width 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.
