What this page is
buythis.co.za/digital-printers is the digital printer hub of Buythis, AM.CO.ZA's online shop. On the live page it is only a heading, a link to printer videos and seven tiles. This knowledge base page explains what each tile covers, lists representative printers and supplies from the product dump with current prices, and points to the deeper pages in this knowledge base.
AM.CO.ZA's own printer ranges are FastCOLOUR (roll-to-roll large format and hybrid printers) and FlatPRINT (UV flatbed printers), plus DTF, UV-DTF and single pass printing engines. Most use sealed Epson printheads (XP600, I1600 or I3200) and a PrintExp control board.
The tables show a sample of each section, not the full range. Prices are current Buythis prices including VAT from the product dump dated 2026-10-22. Some prices come from older dump entries (2026-10-21); confirm those on the product page. Check the product page before ordering, since prices change.
How printer package names work
Many printer SKUs differ only by printhead count, head type and ink set, so the SKU tells you what is in the box:
- Width: 1800 or 3200 in the SKU is the printing width in millimetres (for example F2-1804 is 1800 mm, F2-3204 is 3200 mm).
- Heads: no letter means one Epson XP600 head, D means two and T means three. I means Epson I1600 industrial heads, and I2 means I3200 heads.
- Ink set: /ECO is eco-solvent, /SUB is dye sublimation, /UV is LED-UV and /HYBRID is a UV roll printer with a flatbed table. For I1600 and I3200 printers, /A, /E and /U name the printhead version for water-based, eco-solvent or UV ink.
- Barebone: products named Barebone Unit ship in a crated box without printheads or RIP software, for buyers who already have them.
- Complete packages include the printhead, RIP software (SAi FlexiPRINT or InkRIP), a starter ink set and cleaner.
Large Format: roll-to-roll printers
The Large Format section holds FastCOLOUR roll printers for banners, vehicle wraps, stickers, wallpaper and sublimation transfer paper. Eco-solvent printers print durable outdoor graphics on vinyl and banner material; sublimation printers print transfer paper for polyester fabric; roll UV printers cure ink instantly with LED light.

Large Flatbed: UV printers for rigid items
The Large Flatbed section holds FlatPRINT UV flatbed printers. They print straight onto rigid items such as acrylic, wood, glass, metal, signboards, phone covers and promotional gifts, with white ink for dark or clear items and varnish for raised gloss effects. The Z height sets how thick an item can be. Camera (CCD) editions find each item on the table and line up the print automatically, which saves setup time on batches of small items.

Hybrid printers

DTF, UV-DTF and single pass printers
These printers sit across the hub's sections. DTF (direct-to-film) printers print CMYK and white onto PET film; hot melt powder is added and baked, and the transfer is heat pressed onto cotton, polyester and blends. UV-DTF printers print UV ink onto an A film and laminate it to a B film, making hard stickers that apply cold to cups, bottles and boxes without weeding. The single pass engine prints a full width in one pass for fast packaging and label runs.

Inks
The Inks section holds inks for each printer type. Always use the ink chemistry the printer was set up for, since mixing eco-solvent, water-based, sublimation, DTF and UV inks damages printheads and ink lines.

How to choose
- Start from what you will sell. Outdoor signs, banners and wraps point to eco-solvent; sportswear and polyester to sublimation; T-shirts on any fabric to DTF; hard stickers for cups and packaging to UV-DTF; printing straight on rigid items to a UV flatbed; both roll and rigid work to a hybrid.
- Pick the width. 1800 mm suits most sign shops; 3200 mm suits billboards and wide banners. A3, 300 mm and 600 mm DTF and UV-DTF printers suit garment and sticker work.
- Pick head count and type. More heads print faster. XP600 heads cost less to replace; I1600 and I3200 are Epson industrial heads made for production printing.
- Budget for running costs. Plan for ink, media, cleaner, spare dampers and capping parts, and a replacement printhead over time.
- Choose a complete package if new to printing. It ships with heads, RIP software, starter ink and cleaner, so the printer can run on day one.
