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.

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

  • 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.

The 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.
