If you run your own printer: equipment, inks and why we do not sell printers, powder or film rolls. Most customers only need a heat press and our transfers.
Your customers already come to you for workwear. A reliable heat press and outsourced DTF gang sheets can help you offer logo printing too. Explore the equipment, pricing and workflow needed to launch a uniform branding service, plus the important checks for hi-vis and protective clothing.
We’re planning to bring UV DTF sticker printing to our Coorparoo workshop with the Morpho UV Printer Pro. Discover why this compact printer caught our attention, what it could offer for branded products and personalised gifts, and what we’ll test before opening orders.
DIY DTF does not necessarily mean owning a printer. Compare ready-to-press, iron-on and self-printed transfers, including the equipment, artwork, maintenance and safety considerations for each approach.
Should you buy a new or used heat press for DTF transfers? Compare reliability, warranty, price and total ownership cost, then use our practical inspection checklist to test temperature accuracy, even pressure, electrical condition and production performance before you invest.
You do not need a DTF printer to start decorating garments. This practical checklist covers the heat press, small tools, workspace and testing equipment needed to apply ready-to-press DTF transfers reliably.
Some DTG printers can also produce DTF transfers, but compatibility depends on the exact model, approved ink, software, film handling and finishing process. Use this checklist before changing your workflow.
DTF ink quality matters, but ink does not work alone. White opacity, colour profiles, printer maintenance, film, adhesive, curing, application and garment choice all influence the finished transfer. Learn what to compare and which claims deserve a closer look.
The Roland VersaSTUDIO BY-20 replaced the BN-20D as Roland DG Australia’s compact desktop DTF printer. It offers a purpose-built 20-inch system, integrated cutting, recognised software and local dealer support—but it still requires powder, curing, ventilation, maintenance and realistic production planning. This independent review examines the benefits and drawbacks before you buy.
Thinking about buying a DTF printer? Compare desktop, maker and commercial systems, including established Epson and Roland models, converted printers and emerging Kickstarter options, while considering maintenance, curing, support and the true cost of ownership.
