DTF Printing Consumables: Ink, Film, and Powder
You can’t run without consumables. And cheap consumables will ruin a good printer.
- PET Transfer Film is the base for all our DTF printing machines. 75 micron, cold peel. Double-sided coated. It feeds without curling and releases clean. We stock 16", 24", and 60cm rolls. 100m rolls are the standard.
- Hot Melt Powder for DTF is what makes the print stick. 80-200 micron TPU. Ultra-fine. It shakes off clean and doesn’t leave speckles. White and black. 1kg bags.
- DTF Ink is pigment-based. CMYK + White. We stock 1L bottles. White ink circulates so it doesn’t settle.
A shop running 200 sheets a day uses about:
- 2L CMYK ink per month
- 1L White ink per month
- 1 roll of PET transfer film per week
- 3kg hot melt powder for DTF per month
We price consumables so you can keep margin and not reprint jobs.
How To Pick The Right DTF Printer For The Job
Not every shop needs the same machine. Here’s how we think about it.
- For Startups: The 2 Head DTF Printer. Lower entry point. Easier to learn. You can still do 200-300 shirts a week.
- For Growing Shops: The 4 Head DTF Printer. You’re doing events, teams, and retail. You need speed and less labor.
- For Production Houses: The 5 Head DTF Printer. You’re running gang sheets all day. You need maximum output and an inline shaker.
- For Hard Goods and Promo: The 16" or 24" 3 Head UV DTF Printer. No transfer film. Print direct to tumblers, wood, acrylic, and more.
One rule we follow: buy for the volume you’ll be at in 6 months, not today.
DTF Printer Accessories That Save You Headaches
The printer is half the battle.
- RIP Software controls color and layout. We set you up with profiles that work on our ink and film.
- Humidity Control keeps heads from clogging. Tennessee air is dry in winter. A humidifier saves wasted prints.
- Cleaning Kits are weekly maintenance. Swabs, solution, capping station flush. 10 minutes saves you a head.
- Filter Systems keep dust out. Dust on film = dots in your print.
We include setup and training. We show you how to load PET transfer film, shake powder, and cure transfers. And we answer the phone when you need help.
