DTF printer ink

Ink performance plays a critical role in film-based workflows, directly affecting achievable density, dot quality and overall reliability of the separation.

Most standard inkjet inks are optimized for color accuracy and long-term stability on paper, not for adhesion to film surfaces. As a result, while they can deliver good density, their mechanical durability on film is often limited, and dot shape and edge definition may not be optimal for high-quality separations.

StudioRIP DTF ink is specifically formulated for film-based applications. It provides strong adhesion to the film, while also enabling the formation of well-defined, rounded halftone dots and sharp edges, resulting in excellent scratch resistance and stable handling during production.

Combined with StudioRIP DTF film, the system produces dense, high-contrast, water-resistant separations with strong UV-blocking characteristics, suitable for demanding exposure workflows.
