What you should know

  • The Ri 100 is optimised for cotton and cotton blends – synthetic fabrics such as polyester can be printed on with limited results. The Ri 100 does not use white ink, so the best results are achieved on white or light-coloured textiles.
  • Due to its manual handling, it is more suitable for individual items or small series – the Ri 1000 is recommended for larger quantities.
