Roland DG’s TY-300 Direct-to-Film transfer printer

Roland DG has announced its new direct-to-film, transfer printer has officially hit the European market.

The TY-300 printer debuted on September 25 last year in Japan, and now the manufacturer of wide-format hardware has expanded its reach.

The printer, equipped with newly engineered print heads and True Rich Colour 3 settings, is designed to produce vibrant, lifelike prints with a smooth, natural finish.

It also offers two white ink density profiles for optimal results on various fabric types.

To complement the TY-300, Roland DG provides a dedicated DTF shaker oven for efficient curing.

The S-PG2 DTF ink enhances print quality while reducing ink consumption and waste.

Advanced features, including automatic printhead cleaning, a nozzle refresher tool, and user-replaceable parts, minimise downtime and improve operational efficiency.

The inks and powders used are OEKO-TEX ECO PASSPORT certified, meeting safety standards for human health and environmental protection.

Ryugo Nimura, president of Roland DG’s Global Sales and Marketing Division, said: “In just a few years, DTF technology has revolutionised apparel production, with businesses around the world adopting it.

“We are confident the TY-300 will help screen printers, print shops, and online apparel brands boost profitability and stay competitive.”
