Questions & Answers

Where can I buy the Prestige R1 13" DTF Printer with Supplies bundle locally for fast shop pickup?

You can purchase this comprehensive starter setup online and arrange for quick local pickup at our primary logistics centers. In-store counter pickup is typically ready in as little as 1 hour at our St. Louis, MO corporate headquarters (5110 Penrose Street) or our Atlanta (Marietta), GA showroom facility (1147 Cobb Industrial Drive).

What specific starting supplies and software come included with this virtual training package?

This bundle functions as an efficient, entry-level custom printing business configuration by pairing your machinery with essential starting consumables:

  • ColorPrime DTF Ink Set: Full bottles of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black (CMYK), and high-opacity White ink.
  • ColorPrime Hot Melt Powder: Premium transfer powder formulated for high elasticity and washing durability.
  • Wide-Format Film: A full 13" x 328' production-grade DTF transfer film roll.
  • Maintenance Essentials: Specialized printer cleaning solution and industrial swabs to preserve clear nozzle channels.

What are the primary performance specs and daily production rates of the Prestige R1?

The Prestige R1 is designed with a 13-inch maximum printing width and operates at speeds up to 14 square feet per hour. Utilizing a reliable single Epson F1080 printhead, it gives desktop operators the capacity to easily output 64 to 86 custom shirts per day (roughly 8–10 garments per hour), delivering industrial-grade transfer quality at a cost-effective price point.

What pro-level automated maintenance mechanics are built into this desktop printer?

To optimize daily uptime and prevent common direct-to-film ink issues, the Prestige R1 features an integrated automated maintenance suite:

  • White Ink Management System (WIMS): A timed ink stirring mechanism that continuously circulates white chemistry to stop settling and clogging.
  • Passive Auto-Cleaning: Automatically carries out basic printhead maintenance every 4 hours when the machine is left powered on.
  • Active Auto-Cleaning: Can be set to pause at specified intervals during active production runs to clear the printhead nozzles.
  • Sensory Safeguards: Equipped with a built-in Head Strike Sensor to prevent physical surface damage, an Auto-Ink Alert system, and an Automatic Film Sensor that pauses jobs safely if media runs out.

How does the Virtual Training structure work, and can I finance this equipment?

The Virtual Training inclusion allows you to coordinate directly with an expert technician remotely, guiding you step-by-step through software workflow integration, calibration adjustments, and routine upkeep right from your computer screen. Additionally, Lawson provides simple equipment leasing paths with low monthly payment options to protect your active operating capital—you can learn more and apply on the Lawson Financing Page.

Description

The Prestige R1 is the kind of printer most shops buy when they want to get into DTF the right way without jumping straight into a larger industrial machine. It gives you a compact 13" print platform, a starter supply kit, and live virtual training so you can move from “we’re trying DTF” to “we’re actually producing transfers” much faster. For beginners, it’s a practical starting point because it keeps the setup manageable while still giving you a real production printer, not a hobby machine.

The R1 is built for small-format garment transfers and short-run production. With a maximum print width of 13 inches and speeds up to 14 square feet per hour, it can produce roughly 64 to 86 shirts per day depending on artwork size and workflow. That makes it a strong fit for startup shops, embroidery shops, screen printers, and apparel decorators who want to bring DTF in-house and start filling orders without outsourcing every transfer job.

What makes this bundle especially useful is that it comes with the supplies you need to get started: CMYK and white ink bottles, hot melt powder, cleaning solution, swabs, and a film roll. Instead of buying the printer first and then piecing the rest together, you get a package designed to help you print sooner. Add in live virtual training and the R1 becomes a more guided, less intimidating way to enter DTF.

LWG Difference

A lot of entry-level DTF printers are sold like a box drop: the machine arrives, and you’re left to figure out the workflow on your own. That’s not how Lawson approaches the R1. The included virtual training gives your team a structured start, with real guidance on setup, print routine, white ink handling, maintenance, and how to get from film to finished transfer without wasting time or consumables.

The Prestige R1 also fits the Lawson support model well. Customers can pick up at the St. Louis and Marietta locations, and the same team that helps with equipment selection is also available for support after the sale. For newer DTF users, that matters because the first few weeks are usually where mistakes happen — and the difference between a smooth launch and a frustrating one is often having someone available who knows the machine and the process.

That combination of starter supplies, virtual training, and real human support is what makes the R1 a smart entry point. It’s not just about buying a printer. It’s about starting with the right setup, the right consumables, and the right people behind you.
