Getting Started With DTF Doesn't Have to Be Complicated
For many print providers and apparel decorators, Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing represents an opportunity to expand into custom apparel without outsourcing production. But getting started can also feel overwhelming.
Choosing the right printer is only one part of the process. Film, adhesive powder, curing equipment, heat presses, and consumables all need to work together, making it difficult to know where to begin or which components are compatible.
The Epson® SureColor® G6070 was designed to make that first step easier. When paired with the Miro 36 Shaker and DTFuzion® film and powder, it becomes the foundation of a complete DTF printing workflow designed to help remove guesswork and build confidence from day one.
Why Businesses Are Bringing DTF Production In-House
Many businesses begin exploring DTF because they want to achieve greater material versatility and cost-effective, on-demand production.
Bringing transfers in-house can help reduce outsourcing, shorten turnaround times, produce short-run orders more efficiently, and respond more quickly to customer requests.
For shops already producing graphics, signs, or promotional products, adding DTF can also create opportunities to expand into apparel without introducing an entirely separate production model.

Why the Printer Is the Foundation
Every successful DTF workflow starts with consistent printing. The SureColor G6070 was designed for Direct-to-Film production, helping businesses bring apparel decoration in-house with a reliable platform that supports repeatable results.
Whether you're producing company apparel, school spirit wear, promotional products, or custom garments, the printer provides the starting point for a workflow that can grow alongside your business.

Building a Complete DTF Workflow
Once graphics are printed onto transfer film, they move through powder application, curing, and finally heat pressing onto the finished garment or product.
Using equipment designed to work together helps simplify each step.
A complete workflow includes:
- A DTF printer
- A shaker for automated powder application and curing
- Film and adhesive powder
- A heat press for transferring graphics to finished garments
When these components work together, operators spend less time troubleshooting compatibility and more time producing finished transfers.

Start with the Right Workflow
By combining the Epson® SureColor® G6070, Miro 36 Shaker, and DTFuzion® consumables, businesses can create a complete DTF solution that simplifies production while supporting consistent results as demand grows.
