Digital printing refers to methods of printing from a digital based image directly to a variety of media. A dye-sublimation printer is a computer printer which employs a printing process that uses heat to transfer dye onto medium materials such as a plastic card, paper, or fabric.

Digital Textile Printing is the technology that consists of printing your designs on fabric, directly from your computer, with no other additional step. This means that after you are finished creating your designs, and once you have them in repeat, you can print on fabric just like you print on paper. 

It is considered to be the next generation printing and is different from Traditional Textile Printing. The only requirement of the Digital Textile Printing is that the fabrics which have to be used must be pre-treated to confirm about their ink holding capacity. Apart from this, a wide range of colors can also be obtained through the pre-treatment process.

What is Digital Printing ?

The process of reproducing digital images on physical surfaces is called Digital Printing. The physical surfaces can be in any form like a common paper, cloth, plastic, a photographic paper, film, etc.

The specialty of Digital Printing is that, unlike ordinary printing, the ink is not absorbed into the paper. Thousands of impression of the same object can be drawn from one set of plates. Instead of absorption, the ink forms a layer on the surface.


Dyes used for Digital Printing Inks and related fibers

Name of Digital Printing Inks Types of fibers used
Acid inks Silks & Nylons
Disperse inks Polyesters
Dye based inks Not used for any fabrics, used for photography only.
Reactive inks All cellulose based fibers: Cotton, Linen & Rayon

The Dyes which are commonly used for digital textile inks are as follows: Acid Dye Inks, Reactive Dye Inks and Disperse Dye Inks.


Acid Dye Inks for Digital Textile Printing

Reactive Dye Inks can be used on fabric, cotton, silk, wool, nylon and chemical fiber. Mainly Piezoelectric printers are used for this purpose.

Disperse Dye Ink for Digital Textile Printing
Disperse Dye Inks have excellent and complete end-use properties. These inks are able to generate shinny and reproducible colors in polyester fibers. The various fixation methods which are used in the conventional methods of textile printing, are also used for the fixation process of disperse-inks in the digital textile printing method. Dispersed inks are formulated in the same way as these are formed for the conventional methods of printing. Post processing is required for these Disperse-inks to produce vibrant and colorfast results during their uses in digital textile printing method. These inks have long lasting effects.

Advantage of Digital Textile Printing



Coloring process through Digital Textile Printing Technology (DTPT)

Textile printing is a method by which fabrics are printed in various colors, arts and designs. DTPT is a process to color the textile. In DTPT, a design on textile does not require any set repeat size. Also, there is no color restriction regarding the number of colors. Any graphic that is created on a paper for printing purpose, can be printed on fabrics. The Photographic and Tonal graphic which are created with the help of million of colors in the photoshop, can be also applied on fabrics.

Latest development which has taken place in ink products, color management software and substrates, has enabled users to produce a wide color range and finer printing quality. Addition of a new set of colors, consists of orange, blue green etc. to the conventional process colors of CMYK, has become the new standard for process color. Simultaneously, the development of color management software helps in managing all those complex color systems. DTPT also follows the Drop on Demand Technology. That has permitted to short run production on a variety of substrates with minimum down time. All those factors are responsible for the development of a new look of digitally printed fabrics in the high-end fashion design market.
