xTool Apparel Printer

The xTool Apparel printer introduces a revolutionary approach to on-demand garment printing with industry-leading Direct-to-Film (DTF) technology. With high-resolution color prints, ease of use, and a compact, all-in-one design, it's perfect for small businesses, creatives, and apparel entrepreneurs looking to produce stunning, full-color designs on cotton, polyester, nylon, canvas, and more.

What the machine does

The xTool Apparel printer combines all the key steps of DTF printing. It prints your design onto the film, applies powder, removes excess powder, and cures the film in minutes. Traditional DTF setups often require multiple separate devices and extensive manual intervention, but this machine integrates everything into one seamless process.

Why it matters for clothing companies

For small print shops, growing brands, or on-demand apparel services, the system offers a significant workflow advantage. It supports cotton, polyester, mixed fabrics, and both light and dark garments, offering maximum production flexibility. Automated features such as internal humidity and temperature control, automatic printhead cleaning, and white ink circulation reduce downtime and keep the printer ready for continuous work.

How it works in practice

You begin by preparing the artwork in the software and sending it to the printer. After printing, the machine automatically sprays, agitates, and cures the film with minimal manual steps. Once the film is ready, it is heat-pressed onto the garment. A typical workflow involves preheating the garment, pressing it at around 160°C for a few seconds, briefly cooling it, removing the film, and then pressing it again for added durability.
The total cost of A3 printing material is low and, when combined with the cost of a plain T-shirt, offers an attractive profit margin for small-scale or on-demand production.

Longevity and quality

Prints created with this system are durable and designed to withstand frequent washing without losing color or detail. Built-in maintenance features maintain stable print quality and reduce maintenance time. This makes the printer suitable for both quick custom orders and larger batches.

Who is it suitable for?

This machine is ideal for small businesses, apparel startups, print shops looking to expand, or shops offering customization services. It's especially useful for users who want a streamlined workflow, quick turnaround times, minimal manual labor, and the flexibility to print on almost any type of garment.
