Direct To Film (DTF) Bundles

The Reality of Starting a DTF Business (And How We Help)

Let’s be honest: standing out in the custom apparel world isn't easy, but Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing has completely changed the game. It gives you the vibrant, durable prints of screen printing without the messy setup, and the flexibility of DTG without the strict fabric limitations.

But if you are looking at equipment, you've probably realized how overwhelming it is to piece everything together. Buying a printer from one place, a curing oven from another, and hoping the software plays nice is a recipe for frustration.

That is why we built these turnkey DTF Startup Bundles. We wrap the machine, the finishing equipment, the exact right inks, and—most importantly—hands-on training into a single package. You save money upfront compared to buying piece-by-piece, and you skip the trial-and-error phase entirely.

Built for Your Scale: Desktop to Continuous Roll-to-Roll

We don't believe in one-size-fits-all setups because a garage startup has completely different needs than an established print shop.

  • The Desktop Setup (Perfect for Beginners & Boutiques): If you are tight on space or just testing the waters, configurations built around the Prestige R1 13" DTF Printer are incredible. They give you commercial-grade depth and detail but fit comfortably on a sturdy work table. Pair it with a compact curing oven, and you're officially a production shop.
  • The Automated Setup (For Growing Production): If you are already handling steady order volumes and hate manual labor, you want a system with an automated powder shaker-dryer. This allows you to print continuously onto a roll of film while the machine automatically applies the powder and cures it inline.

Why Choose Lawson? (Hint: It’s the Support)

Anyone can sell you a box of hardware. The real challenge with digital printing is knowing what to do when a printhead needs calibration or software settings get wonky.

Every single bundle comes backed by our signature training program and lifetime tech support from our US-based team. We make sure you know exactly how to run, maintain, and profit from your machine from day one.
