Title: Dtf using a Dtg
Post by: darkbosque_ on October 07, 2021, 11:47:26 PM
Hey yall

 Can you print direct to film using a dtg machine? Using the same ink the dtg machine will use on the norm?  The shop I work at is currently expirementing with this and I thought everyone here will probably have the answer about this.

Yes you can. As a matter of fact Brother recently released a new driver just for that purpose.
 CAD link has as well a driver for DTF printing
