- Less time unclogging, more time printing. It keeps the air around your heads at 45 to 65% humidity and caps them wet between jobs to help prevent clogs.
- Less white ink down the drain. The HydraFlow damper and white ink circulation keep your white flowing and cut down on clogs and waste.
- Keep the queue moving from your phone. Send jobs, check status and get alerts from anywhere on your shop's network.
- Take on whatever fabric your customer brings. Your transfers go on cotton, polyester, denim, canvas, spandex and nylon, up to 14 in wide with G7 color accuracy.

Looks after its own heads
Why the Plus
Stop babysitting your printheads.
Dry air and white ink that sits still are hard on DTF printheads. The Plus takes care of both by itself, even while it's waiting on your next order.
- You don't have to watch the humidity. A built-in humidifier keeps the air around your heads at 45 to 65%.
- Come back to heads that haven't dried out. Automatic wet capping keeps them moist whenever the printer sits idle, which helps prevent clogs.
- Your white ink keeps flowing. White ink circulation and the HydraFlow damper cut down on clogging and wasted ink.
- Less daily maintenance on your plate. It cleans its own heads, keeps the ink stirred and circulating, and handles humidity and wet capping without you. You can also start a cleaning from the app. Asleep, it draws only 23.5 W, about 0.5 kWh a day.
Plus vs original
Here's what the Plus gives you over the original Apparel Printer.
The top of the table is what you get on either printer, from the printheads to the software. Below that is what you'll only get with the Plus: more help keeping your printheads and white ink in shape, and more control from your phone.

What xTool Apparel Printer Plus owners say.
How it works
Your design on a shirt in three steps.
With either bundle, the OS1 shaker oven handles the powder and the bake for you.
01
Lay it out in one program.
Design, RIP, auto nesting and layout all live in xTool's software, and its AI generator can draw artwork for you. Send the job from your computer, or from your phone on the shop's network.
02
One click to a finished transfer.
No shaking powder by hand. Dual Epson I1600 heads print CMYK plus white, and the xTool shaker oven takes care of the powder and the bake.
03
Press it on.
Your heat press puts it on the garment. Bring your own; none of the packages include one.
For one-click print-to-bake you'll need the xTool shaker oven. Both bundles come with it; the Standalone doesn't list it.

Full specs
Product details
Here's the full description, features and specs for the xTool Apparel Printer Plus.
Print custom T-shirts, hats, bags and denim for your customers, and spend less of your week unclogging printheads. The xTool Apparel Printer Plus prints full-color DTF transfers and looks after its own heads: it helps keep the air around them humid, cleans them around the clock while it is plugged in, and seals them when the shop goes quiet.
Pick the Versatile or All-in-1 Bundle and the printer is paired with xTool's OS1 shaker oven, so one click takes a design from print to a baked transfer. You heat press it onto the garment. The Standalone package is the printer without the oven.
The Plus is xTool's update to its original Apparel Printer, built on more than 197,000 hours of real-world use and community feedback. The changes all aim at the same thing: more consistent printing with less hands-on upkeep.
Key Features
- Steady printing when the shop air is dry. A built-in humidifier switches on and off by itself to help keep the air around the printheads in range, and a dedicated sensor next to the heads picks up changes within seconds.
- White ink that is less likely to clog. The Plus adds an upgraded white ink damper, which xTool calls HydraFlow, and the printer stirs and circulates the white ink on its own.
- A slow weekend is easier on the heads. After 24 hours with no printing, the printer seals the printheads and keeps the nozzles moist with moisturizing liquid, which helps stop leftover ink from drying in them.
- Printhead care that runs while you do other work. Once it is plugged in, the printer cleans its heads around the clock, and you can start a cleaning from the app too.
- A blocked nozzle does not have to stop the job. An AI camera checks the nozzles with test prints and starts a cleaning. If a nozzle stays blocked, the printer covers for it with working nozzles while it prints. The same camera handles calibration.
- One click from design to baked transfer, with the OS1 oven. Together the printer and oven print and cut the film, powder it and bake both sides, so the sheet comes out ready to press.
- Say yes to more kinds of garments. Dual printheads print full color with a white layer, so designs work on any color of apparel across cotton, polyester, denim, canvas, spandex, nylon and more.
- Color set up before your first order. The printer comes with its G7 color curve already adjusted, so you are not tuning color by hand.
- Run it from your phone. In the xTool Studio app you can edit an image and send it to print with one tap, and check printer status, ink levels and alerts. Phone features work when your phone is on the same local network as the printer.
- Design, nest and print in one program. xTool's software includes an AI design generator, RIP, auto nesting and print layout, and runs on Android, iOS, macOS and Windows.
Applications
- Custom T-shirts: full-color designs on any color of shirt.
- Hats and caps: put customer designs on caps as well as shirts.
- Tote bags and other bags: put the same artwork on bags as well as shirts.
- Jeans and denim: add designs to jeans and other denim pieces.
- Canvas shoes: add designs to canvas sneakers.
- Print on demand: print transfers as orders come in instead of holding printed stock.
- In-store customization: personalize apparel for walk-in customers.
- Company merch: branded apparel and bags for business clients.
Compatibility & Requirements
- One-click print to bake needs the xTool shaker oven: the OS1 oven comes in the Versatile and All-in-1 Bundles, not in the Standalone package.
- Heat press: you heat press the finished transfer onto the fabric.
- Film: third-party film cannot be used with the OS1 shaker oven.
- Ink: xTool does not recommend third-party ink.
- Exhaust: xTool does not recommend its IF2 as an exhaust fan for this printer. The fumes contain glycerin.
- Phone app: checking status, getting alerts and sending jobs from your phone work on the same local network as the printer.

Quick answers before you call.
What does the Plus add over the original xTool Apparel Printer?
You get four upgrades: built-in humidity control that keeps the air around your heads at 45 to 65%, automatic wet capping, the HydraFlow damper for your white ink, and the ability to send jobs from your phone on the shop's network. The printheads, speed and print width match the original.
Does it print straight onto shirts?
No, it makes DTF transfers, and you press them on with your heat press. You'll need your own, since none of the packages include one.
Can the Standalone package do one-click print-to-bake?
Only with the xTool shaker oven. You get the OS1 in the Versatile and All-in-1 bundles. If you're looking at the Standalone, ask a specialist what's in the box before you order.
What fabrics can I print on?
Pretty much whatever your customers bring. xTool lists all fabrics, including cotton, polyester, denim, canvas, spandex and nylon.
How fast is it?
xTool rates it at up to 50 sq ft an hour at 720 x 1200 DPI. Tell a specialist what you print, and they'll talk you through how your own jobs will run.
Can I run it from my phone?
Yes. From your phone you can check on the printer, get alerts, start a cleaning and send print jobs, as long as you're on the shop's network. The software works on Android, iOS, macOS and Windows.
What is the difference between the Versatile and All-in-1 bundles?
The All-in-1 adds the SafetyPro AP2 Air Purifier. Everything else is the same in both.
What power does it need?
It runs on AC 100 to 120V or 220 to 240V at 50/60 Hz and draws 350 W. Asleep, it's down to 23.5 W, about 0.5 kWh a day.
What room conditions does it need?
Keep your room between 59 and 89 F and 30 to 80% relative humidity; xTool recommends 68 to 89 F and 50 to 80%. The built-in humidifier takes care of the air right around the heads.
