GT-782 Cookbook: 782 vs 541

********* 782 vs 541 : Not just with White Ink *********

Compare the size of the images in each instruction manual: GT-782 is twice as big as GT-541.

GT-541 prints a full-color image on white and light-colored garments. You feel nothing on the garment. On the other hand GT-782 has four white print heads to cover the surface of the garment and prints a full-color image on any color of pretreated garments.

The colors of GT-541 and GT-782 without white ink is the same, but the colors with/without White Ink is greatly different. This gap depends on where the color ink touches: imagine when you print some photo on ordinary office paper and expensive photo paper. The same thing happens here.
