ZoroPrint vs EKPrint Studio
EKPrint mạnh ở đâu, yếu ở đâu, và điều gì thay đổi nếu bạn chuyển sang. Trung thực từ gốc — bạn có thể kiểm tra mọi con số trên trang của họ.
The DTG RIP that DTF shops adopted: a one-off licence with no dongle, and the deepest white-ink control set on this page — choke, highlight, a content-based underbase and a white mixer. Windows only, and the licence file is tied to the network card of one PC. (eukondigital.com)
| Tính năng | ZoroPrint | EKPrint Studio |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free for one computer · Solo $72/year or $8/month · Shop $168/year or $19/month | $199 LITE · $449 developer edition · $499 full version (list $598.99 / $898.99 / $998.99). DTG Pro sells the developer edition at the advertised price only when it is bundled with a printer |
| Operating system | macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel), Windows 10/11 and Linux | Windows only — resellers list Windows 7 / 8 / 10, and the vendor's own requirements page still says Windows XP or 2000. No Mac version |
| Licence | Account licence, no dongle, 30 days offline | No dongle: the licence is a license.txt file tied to the PC's network card, requested by e-mail or from inside the app. Resellers advertise three activations per licence |
| Epson desktop printers | L805/L800, L1800, R1390–1430, ET-8550/L8180 (supported); L8050/L18050, ET-8500/L8160, SC-P700/P900, XP-15000 (experimental) | Epson desktop, on a DTG-based list: L805, L1800, R1290/R1390/R1400, XP-15000, P400/P600/P800, plus the older R1800/R1900/R2200/R2880/R3000 and R3800–R9880 generation. It stops before the ET-8550, the ET-8500, the L8050/L18050 and the SC-P series |
| White underbase | Automatic from transparency: choke, highlight white, less white under dark colours, layered colour → white | White underbase with choke (1–20 px), a highlight level, a content-based mode that lays more white under light colours and less under dark ones, and a white mixer that blends white into the colour inks |
| Channel mapping | Per-tank ink settings, channel test on film, “Wrong colours?” wizard that fixes the mapping for you | Ink drop size and ink level per channel, plus black-only and white-only print modes. There is no channel-mapping diagnosis — a wrongly mapped tank is yours to find |
| Gang sheets | Auto-nesting, fill sheet, roll or sheet, cost per transfer | No gang sheet and no nesting: the workflow is one image at a time — open, scale, position, print |
| Browser builder & storefront | Studio in the browser; white-label storefront on Shopify/WooCommerce/Etsy (roadmap) | None |
| Commission on orders | 0 % | — |
| Mobile app | Roadmap (printer status, queue, alerts) | None |
| Updates | Included on every plan; Free updates forever | Not published: the licence is a one-off purchase and the vendor's site carries no version or update policy |
| Try before buying | Free plan, no card; 30-day money-back on paid plans | 30 days in evaluation mode with printing enabled; after that the print capability is disabled. The demo build is ordered per printer model |
Tóm lại
On white ink, EKPrint is the closest tool on this page to ours: choke from 1 to 20 px, a highlight level, a content-based underbase that lays more white under light colours and less under dark ones, and a white mixer that blends white into the colour inks. It also covers an older Epson generation that we do not — P400, P600, P800, R1800, R1900, R2880, R3000. What it is not is a modern application: Windows only, a licence file tied to the network card of one PC and requested by e-mail, no gang sheet and no nesting (one image at a time — open, scale, position, print), and the vendor's own requirements page still lists Windows XP or 2000 and a CD drive. Its printer list is built on DTG machines and stops before the models most people convert today: no ET-8550, no ET-8500, no L8050, no SC-P series. If your converted Epson is on both lists — L805, L1800, R1390, XP-15000 — EKPrint's underbase controls are the honest reason to pick it. If you want that underbase handled automatically, on macOS and Linux as well, free on one computer, with a gang sheet builder, that is what ZoroPrint does.
