Print Directly on Textile Products
DTG is a process of printing on textiles and garments using specialized or modified inkjet technology.
The two key requirements of a DTG printer are a transport mechanism for the garment and specialty inks (inkjet textile inks) that are applied to the textile directly and are absorbed by the fibers.
Over the last ten years, the resolution (precision) of direct to garment printers has increased dramatically. DTG prints can look as good or better than traditional apparel printing processes, such as screen printing. At the same time, the cost to set up direct to garment printers has decreased – which means DTG printing has become more accessible and affordable than many traditional printing methods.
Technologically, direct to garment printing offers great advantages over traditional printing, such as live computer previews of prints, and running multiple printers from one computer. The amount of time & labor involved with DTG printing is significantly lower than traditional methods.
