The Process of Digital Full Color Transfer Printing

How it Works?

In digital transfer printing, the selected design is printed onto transfer paper. Once this has been done, the image is transferred via heat onto the garment.

step-1-design

Design Creation

Artwork Preparation

Our graphic design software helps you create or select a design, which must be high-resolution and saved in a format that is suitable for high-quality printing, such as PNG, PDF, or TIFF.

step-2-printing

Digital Printing

Transfer Paper Printing

Digital printers can accurately reproduce complex images and a wide range of colors, unlike traditional screen printing.

step-2-printing

Cutting

Trimming the Design

After printing, the excess transfer paper around the design is often trimmed. This prevents any unwanted paper from being transferred onto the fabric.

step-2-printing

Heat Pressing

Transferring the Design

When the transfer paper is placed on the fabric, a heat press machine applies high pressure and heat. Heat converts the ink into a gas (for sublimation inks) or softens it to bond with the fabric (for other inks). During this step, ink is transferred from the paper to the fabric and permanently fixed.

step-2-printing

Post-Processing

Cooling and Peeling

The transfer paper must be removed after the heat press is done. Depending on the type of paper and ink used, the paper can be removed hot or cold. Allowing the paper to cool can help the design set better.

step-3-curing

Curing

Final Touch

The garment may undergo one more round under the heat press or run through a tunnel dryer to ensure the ink is fully set into the fabric.

Advantages of Digital Full Color Transfer Printing

High Resolution Prints

High-Quality Output

Digital transfer printing produces bright, vivid colours that are eye-catching and attractive. This method can achieve high-resolution prints that capture even the smallest design details, perfect for complex graphics and photographic images.

Vibrant Colors

Versatility of Fabrics & Applications

It's suitable for various fabric types, including cotton, polyester and blends, allowing for broad application across different textile products. Not limited to apparel, it’s also ideal for creating custom accessories, home décor, and promotional items.

Can be Applied to a Large Range of Materials

Cost-Effective for Short Runs

Digital printing does not require the setup of screens or plates, making it cost-effective for small orders, even one-offs.

Printing of Photographic Designs

Quick Turnaround

Since there is no need for colour separation and screen making, the production cycle is shorter, enabling faster delivery. The ability to run print jobs as and when needed makes it suitable for fulfilling last-minute orders or limited edition runs.

Doesn’t Require Setup

Eco-Friendly

Digital printing uses fewer chemicals and solvents than traditional methods, making it a more environmentally friendly option. Modern digital printers are more energy-efficient and have a smaller carbon footprint. They only use the exact amount of ink required for the design, minimising waste compared to other printing methods that may require excess ink.

Doesn’t Require Setup

Ease of Customisation

Changes to the design can be made right up to the time of printing without incurring additional costs, offering tremendous flexibility. Each piece can be individually customised in ways that are not economically feasible with traditional printing methods.

Doesn’t Require Setup

Durability

The combination of quality inks and proper heat-setting means prints are resistant to fading and cracking over time. Printed fabrics can withstand multiple wash cycles without degrading the quality of the print.

Doesn’t Require Setup

Consistency and Reliability

Digital printing offers consistency across multiple prints, ensuring each piece is as good as the last. Advanced colour-matching technologies ensure the colours are accurate and consistent from one print to the next.

Potential Limitations of Digital Full Color Transfer Printing

What are the Possible Disadvantages?

  • Digital transfers are usually done slowly, so it is not the best choice for bulk or larger orders.
  • Some garments have to be able to withstand higher temperatures.
  • They are not ideal for designs with one colour; vinyl transfers may be better suited.
  • Exact colour matching is not possible.
  • Due to the cutting process, digital transfer is not best for designs with rough or jagged outlines, or those that fade out into transparence.
  • Some types of designs may not be suited to this method, as it depends greatly on the quality of the design itself.
  • Transfers cost more for large orders, as the process requires a lot more actual labour.

Certain Hues can look different on a Computer Screen and on Print

Some Colors can look Different in Real Life

There aren't many things our incredible DTG process cannot achieve! However, when choosing the colors for your artwork, it’s important to note that they may look different on a real product than what you see on your computer monitor. Even if you have calibrated your monitor to a specific color profile, there are various factors that influence the final appearance of colors on a printed product. Because of this, we can’t guarantee color accuracy 100%.

Our printers will convert your submitted print file from RGB to CMYK color space. This color conversion process changes the color gamut, or range of colors that can be expressed. You must be very cautious when using bright neon and pastel RGB values in your print files. Some examples include hot pinks, lime greens, construction orange, highlighter yellow, Easter egg shades, etc. You should also consider other factors like fabric material, garment color, and whether your print will require a white under base layer when choosing colors.

If color accuracy is important to you, we suggest ordering our pre-made color swatches on a sample product. You can use those swatches to decide which RGB values best compare to the desired results when printed on a physical product.
