What is UV DTF Printing

UV DTF (Direct-to-Film) Printing is an innovative printing process that utilizes a UV printer to print directly to film without the need for ink or toner. This process offers many advantages, including increased durability and affordability, over traditional printing methods.

UV printers have been used in the graphic arts and commercial printing industries for decades, but with the emergence of digital filmmaking, they now offer filmmakers numerous benefits as well. By using this method of printing directly on a specific substrate—such as Mylar or Polyester PVC—directly to film, filmmakers can achieve excellent image quality with extreme accuracy and consistency. In addition, the UV energy from the printer’s light source will dry and cure the ink immediately upon contact with the film, allowing for quick turnaround times on short-run jobs.
