What is DTG Printing?

DTG (Direct-to-Garment) printing is a modern printing method that allows for full-color and high-resolution prints directly onto garments. It involves using a specialized printer that applies water-based ink directly onto the fabric.

In digital direct-to-garment printing, the garment is loaded onto the printer platen, and the desired design is digitally printed onto the fabric. The printer uses inkjet technology to spray the ink onto the garment, layer by layer, creating a detailed and vibrant print. The water-based ink is designed to be absorbed by the fabric, resulting in a soft and breathable finish.

How does the DTG Printer Work?
