3 HOW TO PRINT
To print with the GTX600 SB, an .arx6e file is required. You can create .arx6e files with Graphic Labs,
which can be downloaded at Brother Base:
https://base.brother.digital/software-tools/
You can also use .arx6, .arxp and .arx4 files, but it is recommended to create new .arx6e files to
ensure the best possible print quality. The orange and green printheads will only be used with .arx6e
files!
There is also a manual on Brother Base on how to use Graphic Labs:

Third-party Rip-softwares are also available for Brother printers. Please contact your local dealer for
further informations.
With the GTX600 SB it is also possible to print Direct-to-Film (DTF). If you want to print DTF you can
