The Pioneer 24 is not your average DTF printer. Built by Arcus, this 4-head, 8-color machine is made for busy print shops that need speed, bold color, and reliable results. We saw it in action at the Impressions Expo in Atlantic City, and it didn’t disappoint.
What makes the Pioneer 24 stand out? It’s fast, it prints in bright fluorescent colors, and it comes with pro-level setup and training, so you’re not left guessing. If your shop uses DecoNetwork software to manage orders, mockups, and production, the Pioneer 24 is a smart fit. It’s built for decorators who want to print more and waste less.
Whether you’re new to DTF printing or ready to upgrade, this machine is worth a closer look.
Pioneer 24: Built For Speed, Powered By Versatility
The Pioneer 24 is made to keep up with busy shops. It prints up to 110 square feet per hour, making it one of the fastest DTF printers in its class. That means more shirts, more sales, and less waiting around.
What really sets it apart is the 8-color ink system. It uses 4 print heads to run different setups like CMYK for basic jobs or CMYK with fluorescent inks for bold designs that glow under blacklight. Want cleaner color blends? You can also swap in red, green, blue, or orange instead of the fluorescents.
You’re not locked into one style. The Pioneer 24 gives you options, whether you’re printing for sports teams, fashion brands, or promo merch. It’s built for shops that want to grow and offer more to their customers.

Full Delivery, Setup, And Training From Arcus
DTF printers like the Pioneer 24 need more than just a plug-and-play setup. That’s why Arcus includes full delivery, setup, and training with every purchase. You don’t just get a printer, you get a team that shows you how to run it the right way.
Why does that matter? DTF printing depends on things like room temperature, humidity, and proper settings. If those are off, your prints won’t look right. The film might dry too fast. You could even damage a printhead. Arcus helps you avoid all that by making sure your shop is set up for success from day one.
This isn’t like setting up a home printer. It’s more like learning to drive a race car. Without help, you might hit a wall. With Arcus, you learn to drive fast and safely.
Pioneer 24 Delivers Fluorescents And Fine Detail For Color That Pops
The Pioneer 24 makes your prints stand out with fluorescent inks that glow under blacklight. These colors aren’t just bright, they bring energy to every design. Great for fashion, sportswear, and promo gear, fluorescent ink helps you catch eyes and win attention.
But that’s not all. You can also switch to extra red, green, blue, or orange inks for smoother blends and sharper details. This gives you more ways to match brand colors and create pro-level prints that look amazing up close.
Whether you’re printing bold neons or fine gradients, the Pioneer 24 gives you the tools to do both. It’s all about color that pops, and this printer delivers.
How The Pioneer 24 Could Fit Into Your DecoNetwork Workflow
The Pioneer 24 is designed for shops that need speed, vibrant color options, and consistent output. Its 8-color, 4-head setup offers flexibility for printing with CMYK, spot colors, or fluorescent inks, all features that could support a wide range of custom orders.
For print shops using DecoNetwork to manage quotes, mockups, and production, the Pioneer 24 may align well with those workflows. With its professional installation and training included, it helps ensure a smoother setup process and potentially reduces downtime.
If you’re exploring new DTF equipment, the Pioneer 24 from Arcus is worth considering, especially for shops that prioritize quality, support, and scalable print options.
