DTF inks are made for specific printers and ink systems, and they are not interchangeable between brands. Each product in this collection lists its compatible printers, colours and cartridge sizes. Here's how our range breaks down:

What Makes a Great DTF Ink
DTF printing asks a lot from your ink. It needs to lay down cleanly on film, bond with powder, and survive heat pressing, stretching and washing. Look for:
For the best results, pair your ink with quality transfer film and hot melt powder from our DTF supplies range.
Building a Complete DTF Workflow
DTF ink is one part of a system. Your printer, ink, film, powder, curing and heat press all work together, and a weak link anywhere shows up in the finished transfer. Matching genuine ink with film and powder made for DTF gives you a softer hand feel, better adhesion and fewer reprints.
Pozitive supplies the full workflow, from printers and shaker units to ink, film and powder, so you can source everything from one team that understands how it fits together.

How to Look After Your DTF Ink and Printer
DTF white ink is heavy and settles over time, so a few simple habits will protect your printheads and keep output consistent:
- Run a nozzle check at the start of every day to catch problems early
- Keep your print room humid, as dry air causes clogs and film buckling, and follow your printer's recommended humidity range
- Store ink sealed, out of direct sunlight and at a stable room temperature
- Follow your manufacturer's white ink agitation, cleaning and long store procedures before downtime
Pozitive's support team can walk you through daily maintenance and storage, so your printer stays production ready.
FAQs
Can I use one brand's DTF ink in another brand's printer?
No. DTF inks are formulated for specific printheads, ink systems and colour profiles. Using the wrong ink can cause clogs, poor colour and printhead damage, and may affect your warranty.
Can I use DTF ink in a DTG printer?
No. DTF and DTG inks are different formulations designed for different processes. Always use the ink specified for your printer.
How should I store DTF ink?
Keep cartridges sealed, out of direct sunlight and at a stable room temperature. White ink settles over time, so follow your manufacturer's instructions for agitating it before and during use.
Why does humidity matter for DTF printing?
Low humidity dries ink at the nozzles and makes film prone to static and buckling. Keeping your print room within your printer's recommended range helps prevent clogs and keeps film feeding smoothly.
