Anybody running this thing yet. I’m wondering what ink cost is compared to m link.

We got the GTX installed about 3 months ago. It prints well and is reasonably fast. Ink is $.31 per CC when purchasing the 700cc carts. The issue that we are having is the maintenance white ink that is wasted, this is a big problem. There was a firmware update that improved the waste but still too much waste. If this can be fixed it might be ok. If you were running the machine several hours daily the waste won't be as bad.

Thanks for the feedback!

Do you have a ballpark number of how many shirts and/or hours the machine should run per day to make the waste negligible?

Well starting from 0 but I think I can create some work for it. Hopefully can work up to a few hours a day. Anybody know of any competitors with a better system?
