The Brother GTX Pro (DTG) and the Uninet iColor 560 (White Toner Transfer) are two of the most powerful tools in garment decoration today. The Brother prints directly into the fabric, providing a softer feel and faster production times for high-volume t-shirt runs. The Uninet iColor 560 uses a laser-transfer process, which allows you to decorate almost any surface—cotton, polyester, wood, and metal—with zero daily maintenance. The biggest advantage of the Uninet is that it never clogs; since it uses dry toner instead of liquid ink, you can leave it for weeks and it will print perfectly the moment you turn it back on. The Brother GTX Pro requires more daily care to keep its high-speed heads from drying out. However, for a dedicated t-shirt business, the Brother's lower cost per print and superior 'hand-feel' make it the better choice. If you want to decorate everything from shirts to hard surfaces with zero maintenance hassle, the Uninet is the winner. For a professional, high-volume apparel brand, the Brother GTX Pro takes the crown.
