R1390 A3+ DTF Printer C13 vs Procolored K13 Lite A3 DTF Printer

Both are A3 DTF printers aimed at small print-on-demand shops, and both ship with ink, powder and film. The R1390 is the heavier, higher-resolution machine: 2880x1440 DPI, an L1800 printhead, a 3-in-1 white ink circulation system and both sheet and roll film feed. The Procolored K13 Lite is the lighter, more automated one: white ink circulates every 30 minutes, an infrared sensor catches film faults as small as 2 mm, and it weighs about 40 lb against 84 lb. Buy the R1390 for finer detail and mixed sheet/roll work; buy the K13 Lite for easier upkeep and a smaller footprint.

• Choose the R1390 if you need the higher 2880 DPI resolution, sheet as well as roll film, and a proven L1800 printhead for detailed multi-fabric work.
• Choose the Procolored K13 Lite if you want automatic white ink circulation, film-fault detection and a compact 40 lb body that suits a home or small studio.
