Color Prime Chroma DTF Ink

Is Chroma compatible with my printer?

While Color Prime Chroma was created for use with the entire DTF Station ecosystem, inks are compatible with all textile direct-to-film printers.

Does Chroma work with any film?

Yes, Chroma works with all PET films (cold/warm/instant-peel).

Shelf life & storage conditions?

12 months unopened (see lot label). Store sealed at 59–77 °F, away from direct sunlight. Gently agitate white ink regularly.

Do I need to flush my ink lines prior to switching inks?

While current Color Prime users are not required, it is highly recommended to drain your ink tanks prior to switching to Chroma. Flushing inks lines is not required. For those currently using any other DTF ink brand, flushing is required.

Any RIP software requirements? Do you provide ICC/RIP profiles?

You don’t need to change your current RIP software. For ICC profiles, please contact us. All Color Prime ink and film ICC profiles are available in Digital Factory and neoStampa.

It's easy to switch from your current CMYK ink to Chroma

• Use up current ink - To avoid wasting ink, wait until ink levels are as low as possible to switch
• Using a syringe, pull remaining ink out of each tank and dispose into waste bottle
• Rinse syringe and repeat step 2 for all applicable ink tanks
• Perform regular maintenance - Clean with a swab around the print head, capping station, and wiper blade
• Run "Fill Ink" until ink lines are empty - "Menu" -> "Head Maintain" -> "Fill Ink" -> "Left Head" 
• Close valves or engage clamps as needed to force ink drain 

Fill With Chroma

• Fill ink tanks with Color Prime® Chroma after shaking thoroughly 
• Run "Fill Ink" - "Menu" -> "Head Maintain" -> "Fill Ink" -> "Left Head"
• Perform 3 head cleanings back-to-back

That's it! Painless. You're ready to experience the Chroma difference!
