A DTF printer uses direct-to-film tech. It transfers designs onto materials like fabric, plastic, and wood. The printer prints the design onto a special film, which is then transferred onto the material using heat and pressure. View the full range of LINKO DTF printers.

This printing method is similar to other types of transfer printing, such as DTG (Direct to Garment).

Still, it provides more versatility and flexibility in terms of the types of materials that can be printed.

• It allows for printing on a wider range of materials, including those that are difficult to print using other methods.
• It is a printer that produces very sharp and highly rich-colored images, making it suitable for printing intricate designs and drawings.
• DTF printers can print big designs. They are also quite sturdy to remain intact even after several washes.
• DTF printing is cost-effective, requires less ink, and produces less waste than other printing methods.

Here is a summary of the differences between DTF printing and UV DTF printing.

DTF printers are extensively used in many areas. These include fabrics such as cotton, spandex, wool, or polyester, among others.

This makes it a versatile printing method that can be used for various applications, such as printing t-shirts, hats, bags, and other textiles.

The printed designs are colorful and cannot fade away even after several times of washing them in water.

Moreover, DFT print could be utilized on various materials of various colors, which helps in the printing process of multi-colored designs with high detail levels.

DTF printing produces better prints than other methods, like screen printing. It has bright colors, sharp details, and smooth texture.

The prints are durable, long-lasting, and withstand multiple washes without cracking or fading.

In addition, different types of materials could be printed when using DTF print, including those that proved challenging with other techniques such as plastisol or thermal vinyl transfers.

Using specialized films and inks, DFT printouts can have DTG-like photo-quality images.

DTF printers require specific types of inks that are designed to work with the specialized films used in the printing process.

These inks are usually made from pigment and resin. They have the best adhesion and durability on many materials.

Additionally, DTF inks make vibrant colors and sharp details. They can print multi-colored designs with high detail.

Therefore, choosing the right ink for your DTF printer is imperative for ensuring optimal print performance and quality at all times.

The first factor to think of when selecting a DTF printer or UV DTF printer is the function and performance it offers.
