Questions & Answers

Will the Lawson Trooper Express fit into a small print shop or garage?

Yes, the Trooper Express features a compact 8.5-foot diameter footprint designed specifically for tight production spaces, small commercial rooms, garages, and basements that require automatic printing capabilities.

Does the Trooper Express require expensive technician setup fees?

No, the Lawson Trooper Express ships completely fully assembled and factory-tested directly from our manufacturing plant. This saves you thousands in installation fees and allows you to begin printing shortly after delivery.

What is the advantage of AC motor-driven print heads on the Trooper Express?

AC electric motor-driven print heads provide smooth, consistent squeegee pass speeds and even ink deposit across every shirt, preventing the speed variations often found in all-pneumatic print stroke systems.
