You can purchase this professional desktop direct-to-film printing system online and arrange for quick counter pickup at our regional logistics facilities. Local pickup is fully supported and typically ready in as little as 1 hour at our Atlanta (Marietta), GA showroom located at 1147 Cobb Industrial Drive, or at our St. Louis, MO corporate headquarters at 5110 Penrose Street.

What specific hardware, specialized functions, and support are included with this Prestige R2 Pro package?

The Prestige R2 Pro bridges the gap between desktop space savings and industrial speed, offering an advanced production setup for intermediate apparel decorators:

  • Dual Epson i1600 Printheads (engineered for extreme line detail, precision registration, and reliable continuous output)
  • Integrated Sheet Cutting Function (features smart auto/manual cutting configurations that slide from center-to-right and center-to-left to ensure snag-free media extraction)
  • Complete Support Infrastructure: Comes backed by a 1-year parts warranty, a 6-month printhead warranty, US-based phone and chat support, and access to a private Discord channel for expert troubleshooting.

What are the primary production speeds and automated maintenance features of the Prestige R2 Pro?

Built to scale custom transfer operations efficiently, the Prestige R2 Pro delivers impressive production speeds between 30 to 35 square feet per hour at a production-level resolution ($720 \times 1200$). To maximize daily uptime and eliminate nozzle clogging, it features an exhaustive suite of automation safeguards:

  • White Ink Management System (WIMS): Scheduled white ink stirring to maintain optimal chemical circulation.
  • Passive Auto-Cleaning: Automatically maintains and cleans the printhead assembly every 4 hours when idle.
  • Active Auto-Cleaning: Conducts automated printhead nozzle refreshes at set intervals, even during live production sessions.
  • Sensory Safeguards: Equipped with an integrated Head Strike Sensor to protect components from media ripples, a 1-Liter Bulk Ink Cartridge layout with an Auto Ink Alert system, and an Automatic Film Sensor that pauses printing safely if media runs out.

What does the On-Site Training inclusion provide for new print shop owners?

This premium configuration eliminates the guesswork and learning curve of setting up digital equipment. It includes professional domestic travel, bringing a factory-certified Lawson technician directly to your facility. The technician will handle the physical assembly, precise alignment calibration, and conduct personalized, hands-on training to ensure your production team is completely comfortable with the software workflow and routine maintenance protocols right out of the gate.

What additional gear is compatible with this printer to form a complete roll-to-roll or sheet production line?

To fully eliminate manual post-processing bottlenecks, the Prestige R2 Pro integrates seamlessly with industry-standard software and finishing hardware. Compatible companion options include neoStampa RIP Software, the Miro 13 Max DTF Powder Shaker and Dryer or Seismo M16 DTF Powder Shaker and Dryer for automated continuous processing, and the Phoenix Air 16 x 20 Curing Oven or Phoenix A2 Curing Oven for batch-sheet setups.

Prestige R2 Pro Overview

Most shops that end up looking at the Prestige R2 Pro are stuck in the middle: a single-sheet desktop DTF printer that’s always busy, or a first‑gen A3 machine that’s fast enough for samples but not for steady customer work. The R2 Pro is built for that step up — not full industrial like the X6, but a serious 13" roll‑fed DTF system that can keep pace with daily orders instead of just weekend projects. With dual Epson printheads and a CMYK+White ink setup tuned for apparel decorators, it’s meant to live right on your production floor, not off in a test corner.

How fast it runs depends on how you choose to use it. At typical production settings, the R2 Pro can turn out steady batches of gang sheets and logo runs fast enough to keep a single press operator busy without overwhelming them. Drop the pass count when you need volume for bulk team orders; bump it up when you’re doing color‑critical prints or fine gradients. Either way, the integrated white ink circulation, automated maintenance routines, and smart capping system are quietly doing their job — fewer clogs, fewer surprise downtime windows, more time actually printing instead of clearing out nozzles.

We sell and support the Prestige R2 Pro from our St. Louis, Missouri headquarters, with a second full‑service location in Marietta, Georgia (Atlanta) and satellite coverage reaching Phoenix, Orlando, and Des Moines. Every R2 Pro we place includes on‑site training from Lawson’s own technicians, not a generic remote walkthrough. We set the printer up on your floor, run your real artwork, and help you lock in daily maintenance routines so you’re comfortable with the machine before we leave. For shops moving from “desktop DTF experiment” into “DTF is a core part of our business,” that kind of local, reachable support usually decides whether the upgrade earns its keep or turns into another question mark in the corner.

If you need a 13" DTF printer that’s genuinely production‑capable — and backed by a support team you can actually reach by phone — the Prestige R2 Pro from Lawson Workhorse Group is designed to be that dependable, long‑term advantage

LWG Difference

Most people who land on the Prestige R2 Pro aren’t shopping for their very first DTF printer — they’re trying to fix a bottleneck. A small desktop unit that’s always running behind, or a first‑gen A3 machine that tops out at a couple dozen full‑size transfers an hour. The R2 Pro is built for that next step: a 13" roll‑fed DTF printer that still fits in a small shop, but finally keeps pace with daily customer work instead of just sample jobs.

Under the hood, you get dual Epson i1600 printheads driving a CMYK+White ink set, with a white ink management system, bulk 1‑liter tanks, and active/passive auto‑cleaning systems keeping clogs and downtime in check. At production resolution, you’re in the 30–35 sq ft/hr range — roughly 180 full‑size 12" × 14" transfers in an 8‑hour day — which is exactly the jump many shops need before they consider a 24" or 36" industrial machine.

Where Lawson Workhorse Group changes the equation is what happens after the crate shows up. We don’t just ship you a box and a link to a video. Your R2 Pro is sold and supported out of our St. Louis, Missouri headquarters, with a second location in Marietta, Georgia (Atlanta) and satellite coverage reaching Phoenix, Orlando, and Des Moines. Our own technicians install the printer, dial in neoStampa/DigiRIP and your artwork, and train your team on daily maintenance so you’re confident running production before they leave.

If DTF has moved from “side experiment” to “core part of your business,” that combination of a production‑class 13" printer and local, reachable support is usually what decides whether the upgrade actually pays for itself in the first few months — or sits idle while you wait for someone to answer a ticket.
