How Each Printer Works
DTF Printing Process:
Print → Apply adhesive powder → Cure → Heat press onto garment → Peel film.
Perfect for both light and dark fabrics.
UV Printing Process:
Ink is instantly cured by ultraviolet light during printing, producing raised and durable finishes.
Ideal for hard materials like acrylic, زجاج, and metal.
DTG Printing Process:
The printer sprays textile ink directly onto the garment, blending naturally into the fabric fibers.
White ink and pretreatment are used for dark shirts.
Sublimation Printing Process:
Prints on sublimation paper first, then heat-presses the design into polyester materials, allowing ink to fuse at the molecular level.
