Why a DTF Printer Is the Right Addition to Your Commercial Print Shop Equipment 

The need for fast, affordable apparel decoration is growing. More commercial print shops are using Direct-to-Film (DTF) technology. Adding DTF printing to your shop can open new revenue streams. It boosts production speed and lets you print on more materials. It does all this without adding much labor or overhead.

Market & Application

Is DTF suitable for short-run jobs and personalized printing?
DTF supports high-mix, low-volume production. It prints on demand, handles variable data, and works across garment types. Shops can fulfill custom orders quickly.
DTF expands offerings to sportswear, uniforms, fan gear, and branded apparel. Transfers apply to cotton, polyester, tri-blends, and performance fabrics with strong wash durability.

Financial & Business

What is the return on investment timeline?
DTF systems offer payback in months, based on average job volumes and supply costs. Shops can project ROI by calculating per-transfer margins and daily output.

ColDesi offers financing plans with fixed monthly payments through trusted partners. This helps manage cash flow while scaling production capacity.

DTF bundles are available with printer, powder shaker, RIP software, ink, film, and onboarding. Training resources and support are included in the package.
