Start Direct-to-Film Printing for Less, Without Compromising on Quality!

If you've been looking for a direct-to-film printer that produces impressive durable transfers that is compact enough to fit through a standard-sized door and wont brak the bank, the DTF-12H2 is the answer for you! The DTF-12H2 is easy to use, affordable, and can fit in almost any shop. This Basic Starter Package is a great way to get started with a high-quality professional DTF printer but does not include the added cost of the shaker/dryer unit. This lower cost of entry and smaller footprint, make starting a Direct-to-Film business accessable to businesses with a tighter start up budget or limited workspace.

Instead if the shaker/dryer unit, this package includes the DTF Shaker Kit for Powder application and the DTF Cure Tray that allows you to utilize your own high-quality heat press to cure the adhesive powder, saving you money.

This printer arrives fully equipped with inks, powder, transfer film, complete software suite, and much more! With the included training, you have a complete business package, backed by industry-leading support every step of the way.

Let's break it down!

Speed - The DTF-12H2 can print about 50 transfers an hour, size 8" x 10."
Ease of Use - With the purchase of this printer, training and support is included.
Affordability - This printer costs no more than an average direct-to-garment printer.
Size - For a high volume commercial machine, the DTF-12H2 is compact compared to other DTF printers.
Print Yield - The print width is up to 12" wide.

This 2-head printer produces stunning, full-color transfers that:

Adhere to almost any garment
Are perfect for tough placement
Have just a 10 second initial press time
Last through dozens of wash cycles

How Does DTF Printing Work?

With a dual head design, the DTF-12H2 printer lays down the colors in a blend of C, M, Y, K, LC, and LM colors with the first print head. Then, it uses the second head to lay down a white ink underbase on top of the colors in perfect alignment, keeping any white from peeking out.

Next, you apply the moisture seeking adhesive powder to the back of the transfers using the DTF Shaker Kit and then cure it utilizing the DTF Cure Tray. This is what gives DTF prints their signature soft touch.

The PET transfer film being used in this process is transluscent, allowing you to see the design underneath it when you go to heat press it onto a garment later on. The film is roll fed and designed for a hot peel, making it easier to speed up production.

What Should You Purchase with Your Printer?
Heat Press Machines - You will want a full-sized, dependable heat press. Our top five recommendations are:
ColDesiPRESS C20 Heat Press - Top Pick
ColDesiPRESS C16 Heat Press - Fan Favorite
Hotronix Fusion Professional Package - Best Deal
Hotronix Fusion Heat Press - Popular
Hotronix Auto Clam - Lowest Price

Can you use another brand/style of heat press you already own? Yes, just be careful of one very important thing: you need to have even heat and pressure across the entire platen.

Many 'knock off' heat presses save money in production by having a reduction in heating elements and limited quality control. We recommend the five above due to customers having the greatest success.

Finishing Sheets - Use these to add the final finish to your t-shirt. Once the print is on the garment, press one last time with a finishing sheet to get a nice finish that looks great on a shirt. (This is another product we have tested over and over again to find the perfect one.)
