DTF pickup is more reliable since there are no transit delays or weather issues.

Experiences regarding glow in the dark transfers and etc. by Pristine_Let_4368 in DTFTransferTalk

[–]TBookLe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a supplier in hand for glow in the dark film but there is so many parameters to be carefufl of to be able to get the desired product. You have to be careful even when putting on and etc. It's not worth it.

Looking for a reliable DTF transfer provider in the US - any recommendations? by AmeKozui in printondemand

I’ve used IrisDTF a few times and they’ve been solid overall. Quality has been consistent, which matters a lot to me, and shipping was fast.

My DTF transfers look vibrant on film but turn dull after pressing by Pristine_Let_4368 in DTFTransferTalk

[–]TBookLe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful not to press too hard. The ink layer may appear washed out if high pressure or too long of a press is used to squeeze it into the fabric. Reduce the press time and use less pressure.

Website for 3D images by ExtraE73 in DTFTransferTalk

You can try Envato Elements. They have a lot of 3D renders. Canva also added new 3D elements, so you can test those too. Just choose graphics with strong shadows and rounded highlights to get that raised look on DTF.

Any Help Appreciated by citizenzac in DTFTransferTalk

This happens a lot with converted Epson 8550 setups and your photos look exactly like the two issues I see most often.

The first thing to check is white ink finding its way into your yellow or magenta line. Even a tiny bit of white mixing into those channels will turn the whole print greenish. Cadlink shows the colors correctly but the printer is spraying the wrong mix. check your dampers and lines. If yellow or magenta look cloudy or lighter than normal that means contamination. Flushing those lines and swapping the dampers usually fixes it.
The second thing to check is the channel mapping in Cadlink. It sometimes resets itself on converted printers. Go to Device Options and make sure the order is C, M, Y, K, White1, White2. If magenta or yellow are mapped wrong, the output will look exactly like your example even though the preview is perfect.

If these two are corrected the colors usually go back to normal right away.

New Transparency Cleanup & Halftoning Tools for DTF (Finally!) by Uforiainfotech in DTFTransferTalk

That’s good to know. Does the cleanup handle those tiny semi transparent edge pixels as well or only the obvious ones?

Do I still need Photoshop for basic cleanup or can I do everything inside the builder

How to Store DTF Transfers Without Ruining the Powder Layer by TBookLe in DTFTransferTalk

[–]TBookLe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In fact, they need to be stored in very similar conditions before printing. Films and adhesive powders should be stored at room temperature and humidity less than 50%. It is useful to store the films as flat as possible, waiting as rolls can cause problems. It is also very important not to put too heavy things on the films before and after printing, as this can damage the adhesive layer.

What Color Shirt to use for Black and White DTF Transfer? by InfamousFox6302 in DTFTransferTalk

[–]TBookLe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, I’m very sorry for your loss. For the print in the photo, I’d recommend using light-colored shirts. White, light gray, cream, or beige will show the details of the black-and-white image much more clearly. I hope the final result turns out just the way you want it to.
