Frequently Ask Questions of DTF Transfer Printer

What is DTF printing?

DTF stands for Direct-to-Film, which involves a printing process. A meticulously designed pattern is printed onto a media film using an inkjet printer. The white ink layer is applied with hot melt powder before the film is cured with the dryer. Then, the pattern is transferred to the cloth using a heat press machine and physical heat pressing.

DTF printing is useful in many scenarios. It is especially so in the garment and textile industries. It can be used on different clothing materials. T-shirts rank among the most extensively employed items.

DTF Printer vs. DTG, which is better?

DTF and DTG are both digital printing processes. Unlike the traditional screen printing process, they are more suitable for the personalization and customization business.
DTF printers must print a mirror image of the pattern on PET film. The print is finally transferred to the garment using a heat press. However, DTG means direct to garment.
DTF is suitable for the majority of fabrics. DTG is only suitable for garments with high cotton content(＞80%). You can only use it for tops.
DTF prints faster and more efficiently than DTG.
