Differences Between DTF and DTG Printing 1. **Printing Process**: - **DTG (Direct-to-Garment)**: In DTG printing, the design is printed directly onto the fabric of the garment using specialized inkjet technology. The garment is placed on a platen, and the printer applies the ink directly to the fabric, followed by a curing process to set the ink. - **DTF (Direct-to-Film)**: In DTF printing, the design is first printed onto a special film. After printing, a powder adhesive is applied to the film, which is then heated to cure the adhesive. The film with the design is then transferred to the garment using a heat press. 2. **Materials and Substrates**: - **DTG**: Best suited for cotton and cotton-blend fabrics. The ink bonds well with these materials, providing vibrant and durable prints. - **DTF**: More versatile in terms of materials. DTF prints can be applied to a wider variety of fabrics, including cotton, polyester, nylon, and blends, allowing for greater flexibility in
