Questions & Answers

Where can I buy or pick up the Geo. Knight DK7 Cap Press locally?
You can place your order online and choose convenient local pickup at either the Lawson Screen & Digital Products headquarters in St. Louis, MO, or our Atlanta branch in Marietta, GA. Pickup coordination can also be arranged through satellite support centers in Phoenix, Orlando, and Des Moines.

Does the Geo. Knight DK7 require an air compressor?
No. The DK7 is a manual cap press that uses calculated mechanical leverage to clamp down, operating strictly on standard 120V electrical power without requiring an external air compressor.

What types of headwear can I press with the DK7?
The DK7 comes standard with a 4" x 7" cap platen that handles most standard caps and trucker hats. Optional interchangeable lower forms are available for low-profile caps, flat-bill hats, visors, and beanies.

How does the cap hold-down arm improve print quality?
The spring-loaded hold-down arm clamps the back of the cap to pull the front crown surface completely smooth across the curved lower form. This prevents shifting, wrinkles, and ghosting during heat application.

What transfers can I apply using the Digital Knight DK7?
The DK7 supports all commercial decorating methods, including Direct-to-Film (DTF) transfers, embroidered patches, leatherette patches, heat transfer vinyl (HTV), screen-printed transfers, and sublimation onto headwear and small accessories.
