Frequently Asked Questions

What is the visual indicator of a properly cured DTF transfer?

A properly cured DTF transfer should have a smooth, slightly rubbery, and uniform 'orange peel' texture on the adhesive side. If the back of the film looks sandy, granular, or powdery, the adhesive has not fully melted or flowed, indicating it needs further curing to achieve the necessary wash fastness and durability.

Manual intake processes, such as collecting files via email or direct messages, create fragmented communication channels that lead to significant production pauses. This administrative burden often consumes hours daily, preventing shop owners from focusing on production, quality control, and business growth.

Why does white ink usage fluctuate in DTF printing and how does it impact my costs?

White ink usage is not constant and varies significantly depending on the design's density—thicker, more solid designs require more white ink than thinner, lighter designs. Because white ink is a major component of your consumables cost, failing to account for these fluctuations in design density can lead to an inaccurate COGS and reduced profit margins per sheet.
