  2. Direct-to-garment printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-to-garment_printing

    Direct-to-garment printing (DTG) is a process of printing on textiles using specialized aqueous ink jet technology. DTG printers typically have a platen designed to hold the garment in a fixed position, and the printer inks are jetted or sprayed onto the textile by the print head. DTG typically requires that the garment be pre-treated with a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-to-film_printing

    In contrast to Direct-to-garment (DTG) printing, in which designs are printed directly onto the garments, DTF employs a two-step process. [citation needed] The first step in the Direct-to-film (DTF) printing method involves initially printing the design onto a PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) film and then applying an adhesive powder to the printed film.

  4. Digital textile printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_textile_printing

    Digital textile printing is described as any ink jet based method of printing colorants onto fabric. Most notably, digital textile printing is referred to when identifying either printing smaller designs onto garments (T-shirts, dresses, promotional wear; abbreviated as DTG, which stands for Direct to garment printing) and printing larger designs onto large format rolls of textile.

  5. Textile printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textile_printing

    Modern industrial printing mainly uses direct printing techniques. The printing process does involve several stages in order to prepare the fabric and printing paste, and to fix the impression permanently on the fabric: pre-treatment of fabric, preparation of colours, preparation of printing paste, impression of paste on fabric using printing ...

  6. T-shirt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-shirt

    Dye-sublimation printing is a direct-to-garment digital printing technology using full color artwork to transfer images to polyester and polymer-coated substrate based T-shirts. Dye-sublimation (also commonly referred to as all-over printing) came into widespread use in the 21st century, enabling some designs previously impossible.

  7. Dye-sublimation printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dye-sublimation_printing

    Dye-sublimation printing (or dye-sub printing) is a term that covers several distinct digital computer printing techniques that involve using heat to transfer dye onto a substrate. The sublimation name was first applied because the dye was thought to make the transition between the solid and gas states without going through a liquid stage.

  8. Textile design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textile_design

    Textile design, also known as textile geometry, is the creative and technical process by which thread or yarn fibers are interlaced to form a piece of cloth or fabric, which is subsequently printed upon or otherwise adorned. [1]

  9. Discharge printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discharge_printing

    Printing is the process of adding localized or patterned color to fabrics. [2] Discharge printing involves dyeing first with dischargeable dyes; subsequently, the dyed fabric undergoes a printing process involving the application of a chemical-infused paste that effectively removes the color imparted by the dye.
