OKI Data Americas announces availability of the C831TS – a compact new digital color printer specifically designed for textile transfer printing. With breathtaking full color printing capabilities, fast print speeds and CMYK output on transfer media up to 11" x 17", the C831TS (Transfer System) delivers output quickly and cost-effectively, and is ideal for t-shirt and apparel decorating. With its introduction, OKI Data is offering a special promotion – a free case of Fruit of the Loom® t-shirts[1] – for those who purchase a C831TS, C711WT or pro920WT through September 30, 2015.

The C831TS prints on transfer sheets that can be used with a wide variety of fabric substrates. It features enhanced high definition color printing and Single Pass Color™ technologies with a straight-through paper path for results that would ordinarily require expensive specialty media printing processes. With customized support for textile transfer media, users can set-up jobs quickly to increase productivity.

“OKI Data continues to deliver new and cutting-edge printing technologies for a broad new range of commercial applications,” said Rich Egert, Vice President of Global New Business Development for OKI Data Americas. “The C831TS is no exception. Its fast and cost-effective output allows apparel decorators to deliver full color decorated t-shirts and textiles to the market eliminating the need for time consuming set-ups and other costly fees.”

“Whether the need is for one imprinted garment or thousands, the C831TS produces output on-demand with ease,” Egert concluded.

Together with OKI Data’s industry-leading printing solutions, consumers can generate superior print results at a great value.”

The C831TS is available for limited distribution, and can be purchased from Graphics One, LLC and ISW, and supports select Neenah, Forever and GraphicsOne transfer media.
