Maximize the power of your Brother® DTG printer by expanding the products that you can print on. The T-Lock Wrap Around Insert allows for the printing fashion oriented designs that wrap around from part of the front of the garment, through the side and on to part of the back of the garment.
Expand the product offering to your customers by offering unique prints that other dtg printers will have a challenging printing. The Brother DTG printers have a large print head-to-substrate gap that allows for easily printing over side seams on garments. The easy-to-use T-Lock platen system allows Brother® DTG users the ability to print up wrap around designs. This platen insert works on all the Brother DTG printers (GT-541, GT-782 and GT-3 series printers).
