DTF stands for Direct-to-Film, which involves a printing process. A meticulously designed pattern is printed onto a media film using an inkjet printer. The white ink layer is applied with hot melt powder before the film is cured with the dryer. Then, the pattern is transferred to the cloth using a heat press machine and physical heat pressing.
DTF printing is useful in many scenarios. It is especially so in the garment and textile industries. It can be used on different clothing materials. T-shirts rank among the most extensively employed items.
I recommend the L-402 printer. It has dual i1600A1 print heads and a hoson board, and the powder shaker can be either A-400L or A-400.
