The main feature of direct to garment printers is that they are less complicated than what you normally expect. Many people are surprised with the complicated images that render so accurately on something as soft as a T-shirt or fleece hoodie.<\/p>\n

Direct to a garment can be best likened to at-home inkjet printers, except textile substrates replace paper. Like an at-home printer, direct to garment printer need no set up for different jobs, and still, render millions of colors.<\/p>\n

Early generations of direct to garment printers were just modified standard inkjet printers. Indeed, the first models were from companies like Brother and Epson.\u00a0 Manufacturers simply modified their product to accommodate bulkier garments.\u00a0 They used inkjet textile inks slightly different from what you would get from an office supply store.<\/p>\n

Newer models of direct to garment printers, such as the WER-CHINA Garment Printers are engineered for textile printing. Formulated to print directly to textile and other material substrates, they can produce complex photo-realistic designs!<\/p>\n

Because of the challenges of printing on textiles, direct to garment printer inks can be expensive. For darker garments, an under the base of white ink is needed below the colors of the design. This base layer ensures that colors look the way you intended.<\/p>\n

Before making a judgment about direct to garment printers based on ink costs, remember that the design of WER brand printers\u2014especially the A3 and A1 size DTG printers\u2014use as little ink as possible. In fact, the WER DTG printer advanced wash fast-pigmented genuine DTG Inks, as well as color enhancing RIP Software, which allows you to lay down the perfect amount of ink exactly where you need it. This technology will have your shop creating T-shirt designs at half the cost of inkjet-cartridge-based garment printers.

\nTranslating colors from the digital image into DTG Ink for direct to garment printers onto a substrate depends on the CMYK color reproduction. CMYK is cyan, magenta, yellow and the dominant color black. This type is known as four-color processing since it uses combinations of the four basic ink colors, usually applied in the order they are named in the acronym. This process can simulate all the colors in the digital design.<\/p>\n

DTG Inks bind to the fiber of the garment. This is why a fibrous material, such as 100 percent cotton, is better than polyester on direct to garment printers, which is extremely smooth. Applying DTG Poly Pretreatment can prepare polyesters and poly-blends for the direct to garment printer process.
\nAfter adding all the colors and finishing the design, a heat press cures the ink. The entire drying process can take only a minute to complete.<\/p>\n
