Dye Sublimation Printing VS DTG, How to Choose?

-
Dye sublimation printing and DTG are both the popular printing technologies, and many people don’t know the difference between them. Today, we will have an introduction for both of them.

Dye sublimation printing is the process of printing onto the sublimation transfer paper, and then transferring that image onto fabric. The ink is heated until it disintegrates into the corresponding fabric. That makes the ink long-lasting, and you’ll never have the unfortunate “peeling” effect of a well-worn t-shirt.

DTG is pretty much like using a printer to print on fabric. Because it works like a printer, it can support the most detailed design, with as many colors as you want. The printer can only print one garment at a time, which makes it perfect for printing one-off t-shirts.
