Direct to Film Printer
DTF, or Direct to Film, is a new technology which allows users to print designs onto special clear polyester films using digital water-based inks and a powder adhesive coating, which requires curing. After curing, you can then heat press the transfer design directly onto your garment.
We are very excited to introduce Direct to Film (DTF) to you, an alternative printing process to DTG. You print onto a film transfer that is then dried, after which a powdered glue is applied to the back and the whole thing is heat cured.
The resulting transfers can either be used immediately or stored for later use.
DTF combines the best of DTG, heat transfer and screenprinting, allowing you to broaden the spectrum of products and services you offer without the need to purchase additional machines – in most cases, it’ll work with the equipment you already have on hand. And you’ll receive direct to garment quality each time.
Plus, it allows you to print on areas that aren’t as easily accessible with your DTG printer, such as sleeves and pockets. And you’ll be able to print on almost every type of fabric, including 100% polyester, with great quality results.
TEXTEK’s products are unique in that they have been designed specifically for use with Epson inks and DTF printers, such as A3 Pro DTF and TX65. We supply DTF powders, films and DTF heat press.

Are DTF Transfer Prints Durable?
We have been printing DTF Transfers since September 2020 and we love it. We have personally printed, tested, washed many T-Shirt prints over and over 50+ times to bring our customers tried and tested material at affordable prices. In our testing, DTF Prints are more durable than White Toner Prints or traditional HTV printing, Screen printing.
The best benefit we have seen printing DTF transfers is there is little to no waste, which we love. You can order exactly what you need, store full colour designs or neck labels in zip lock bags for later use. We have super low minimums to get you started and If you buy more of the same design you will save more.
The consumables of a3 dtf printer include ink, hot melt powder and PET film. There are 7 kinds of inks according to different needs, CMYK + W + fluorescent yellow + fluorescent green. Merchants can choose according to the different effects to be achieved. White ink is necessary because it is the background color. Many businesses will ask me whether I need white ink. There is no doubt that white ink is indispensable. Hot melt powder is the transfer medium. It covers and mixes the white ink through high temperature, and then bonds the whole printed picture, so that the whole picture can be directly transferred to the clothes. Finally, let’s talk about films. PET films suitable for A3 DTF printing generally have cold peeling and cold hot peeling. Cold peeling can only be peeled when it is cooled. Cold and hot peeling can be peeled at any time.
