Innovations in DTF Printing
Description
This week, we sit down with Sean Stewart from American Print and Supply to dive deep into the latest advancements in Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing technology. We’ll explore the evolution of DTF, focusing on the extended color gamut printing, building custom color profiles, and why CMYKRGBO printing could be a game changer. Sean will also discuss the growing trend of mixed media printing, showing how to balance perceived value with actual production costs using the right tools. Join us for an informative conversation on pushing boundaries in DTF printing!
