In today’s fast-growing custom printing industry, digital printing technology is reshaping how we create personalized products. Whether you’re printing on T-shirts, шоље, тоте багс, or phone cases, choosing the right printer makes all the difference.
At Ксинфлиинг, we specialize in high-performance printing solutions. У овом водичу, we’ll explore the four most popular printing technologies — ДТФ, Ув, ДТГ, and Sublimation printers — including how they work, how to maintain them, and how to extend their lifespan.
Understanding the Four Printing Technologies
| Тип штампача | Best For | Компатибилност материјала | Printing Principle | Предности | Ограничења |
| ДТФ (Директно на филм) | Одећа, Цанвас кесе, ципеле | Памук, полиестер, најлон, мешавине | Prints on PET film → hot melt powder → heat press transfer | Multi-fabric support, светле боје, издржљив | Requires powder and heat press |
| УВ штампач | Hard or soft flat materials | Акрил, дрво, стакло, метал, пластичне | UV-cured ink solidified by UV light | 3D texture, водоотпоран, instant curing | High cost, more maintenance |
| ДТГ (Директно у одећу) | Cotton garments | Cotton or high-cotton blends | Ink sprayed directly onto fabric fibers | Soft feel, фини детаљи, full color | Best for cotton only |
| Сублимациони штампач | Polyester apparel, шоље, metal panels | Polyester or coated blanks | Ink sublimates into polyester material under heat | Low cost, живе боје, издржљив | Limited to polyester or coated surfaces |
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, стакло, 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.
Процес сублимационог штампања:
Prints on sublimation paper first, then heat-presses the design into polyester materials, allowing ink to fuse at the molecular level.
