PolyPrint

Colour accuracy & smooth gradients

The Tech:Ā Stable ink delivery and precision Epson i1600/i3200 heads ensure that your 100th print looks identical to your first. No banding, no color shifting—just predictable, high-resolution output.
The Result:Ā Deep, saturated colors and photographic skin tones.

Bright, Opaque White

The Tech: Our controlled white ink laydown is designed to be opaque enough to block garment “bleed-through” but thin enough to maintain a professional profile on the fabric.
The Result:Ā A dense white layer that makes colors “pop” on dark garments without being thick or heavy.

Clean small text and sharp edges

Controlled printing modes help you balance speed and detail per job. Multiple pass modes up to high-resolution output.

The “Soft Hand” premium feel

The Tech: By balancing ink volume with our gradual 5-lamp curing process, the film and powder bond perfectly. This creates a lightweight, “soft-touch” finish that customers associate with high-end retail brands.
The Result:Ā A transfer that feels like part of the shirt, not a piece of plastic stuck on top.

Our Printable Range

To complement the Filmjet Mini Series, we offer a selection of DTF-compatible Black Premium 195 Fruit of the Loom T-Shirts, available in sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL, supplied in packs of 5. These high-quality garments provide the versatility to produce vibrant personalised clothing and branded workwear.

DTF & FilmJet Mini Series – Frequently Asked Questions

What is DTF printing and how does it work with PolyPrint printers?

Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing is a versatile process where designs are printed directly onto a specialised transfer film using textile inks, then coated with adhesive powder and heat-cured before being transferred onto garments and other textiles. Polyprint’s DTF printing solutions are designed to deliver vibrant colours, fine detail and reliable production, making them ideal for custom apparel, workwear, promotional clothing and short-run textile printing. With efficient workflows and professional-quality results, Polyprint technology provides a flexible solution for businesses looking to produce durable, high-quality garment transfers.

To learn more, read our DTF – The Process Explained page

Do PolyPrint FilmJet Mini printers come ready for DTF out of the box?

No, Polyprint FilmJet Mini printers do not come fully ready for DTF production straight out of the box. However, your printer will be installed on-site by a trained professional, ensuring it is correctly set up and ready for production. They will also provide operator guidance and training, helping you get started with your FilmJet Mini confidently, along with the necessary knowledge to help you look after your investment in the longer term. Further, ongoing support is available from both ourselves and the team at Polyprint.

Are PolyPrint DTF printers expensive to run?

Not necessarily. Polyprint FilmJet printers are designed to keep running costs under control, with efficient ink use, automated white-ink circulation and maintenance features designed to reduce clogging, downtime and ink waste. FilmJet inks are also formulated specifically for the system and are OEKO-TEXĀ® and GOTS certified, giving you a combination of reliability, quality and compliance.

What support options are available?

We offer flexible support to help keep your DTF printer running smoothly. Support is available by telephone, remotely, or on-site, depending on your needs. Our technical support team can provide troubleshooting, technical guidance and practical assistance to help resolve issues quickly and minimise downtime.

For support, call 01407 720011 or email info@novachrome.co.uk.

Which PolyPrint printers are suitable for DTF?
  1. Polyprint offers two dedicated FilmJet Mini DTF printers, providing flexible options for businesses with different production requirements:

    • FilmJet Mini 30 – A compact DTF printing solution, ideal for businesses looking to produce high-quality transfers while keeping their production setup efficient and space-conscious.
    • FilmJet Mini 60 – A larger-format DTF solution designed for higher-volume production, offering increased productivity for businesses with greater transfer printing demands.

    Both models are designed for producing vibrant, detailed and durable DTF transfers for applications including custom apparel, workwear and promotional textiles.

Where should I store my DTF printer?

Your DTF printer should be kept in a clean, dry, well-ventilated room away from direct sunlight, excessive dust, moisture and extreme temperatures. Ideally, place it on a stable, level surface with enough space around the printer for ventilation, maintenance and easy access.

Avoid storing your printer in garages, sheds or other areas that are cold, damp or subject to significant temperature changes, as these conditions can affect the printer, inks and print quality.

For the best results, keep the printer in a consistent, controlled indoor environment and follow the storage and operating conditions recommended for your specific model.

How easy are PolyPrint DTF printers to operate for beginners?

The Polyprint FilmJet Mini 30 and Mini 60 combine an easy-to-use interface, compact footprint and streamlined workflow to make DTF printing simple and efficient. Designed for straightforward operation, the intuitive user interface provides quick access to everyday functions and print controls, while the compact design makes the printers suitable for a range of production environments. With a user-friendly workflow and touchscreen operation, the FilmJet Mini range helps operators get up and running quickly, even with limited DTF printing experience.

FilmJet DTF Ink – How Does It Compare?

Polyprint’s FilmJet DTF Ink combines reliable print performance with recognised certifications, including OEKO-TEXĀ® and GOTS. While lower-cost DTF inks are available, FilmJet Ink is formulated specifically for FilmJet printers, helping deliver consistent colour, excellent white coverage and dependable results — making it a strong choice for businesses looking for quality and value.

How often do I need to use my FilmJet Mini 30/60?

The FilmJet Mini 30/60 is designed for regular, professional use and ideally should used at least once a week.

However, if the printer is going to be left unused for an extended period, we recommend following the manufacturer’s maintenance and storage procedure to keep the printheads and ink system in good condition. For the best results and reliability, regular use is preferable, particularly with white ink.

If you expect the printer to be unused for a longer period, carry out the recommended maintenance procedure before switching it off.

What are the warranty terms?

We provide a one year warranty on the PolyPrint DTF FilmJet Series. This covers all aspects of the system – even the print heads!

What products can I produce with my PolyPrint DTF printer?

With a Polyprint DTF printer, you can personalise a wide range of textile products and garments, including T-shirts, hoodies, baby clothes, Fruit of the Loom garments, bags, soft toys and more. DTF transfers are suitable for a variety of fabrics and substrates, including cotton, polyester, blends and many other textiles, allowing you to create vibrant, durable designs across clothing, accessories, promotional products and personalised gifts.

Can I see samples or have a demonstration before purchasing?

Yes. We provide DTF print samples and video demonstrations to help you see the quality and capabilities of our printers before making a decision. This allows you to understand how the equipment works and assess the results for your own requirements, helping you make an informed decision.

To request samples or a video demonstration, call 01407 720011 or email info@novachrome.co.uk.
