Done Right.
Everything you need to launch, run, and profit from DTF printing. From the team trusted by Australian businesses since 1978. Register your interest below, no payment required.
Most people starting DTF printing make expensive mistakes.
Not because they're not smart. Because they didn't have the right guidance before they started.
Wrong equipment choice
Buying a printer that doesn't match your volume, artwork type, or budget. It happens constantly — and it costs $10,000 or more to fix.
Workspace setup problems
Poor ventilation, dust contamination, humidity issues — common problems that damage transfers and create print defects that take weeks to diagnose.
Underpricing your work
Not understanding your real cost-per-print means working long hours for poor returns. Most new operators leave significant profit on the table for the first 12 months.
Discover DTF Printing changes that.
This course walks you through every decision you need to make before you spend a cent on equipment. And if you're already set up, it gives you the frameworks to run a more profitable operation starting this week.

Brisbane, QLD
Promo & Print Co
Jamie Williams started from a home office. Thirteen years later, Promo & Print Co operates from a 700sqm production facility in Brisbane, with up to 15 staff during peak periods.
After adding a Coltex roll-to-roll DTF printer to complement their Epson setup, they increased production capacity by 20% and can now print up to 100 metres of transfers daily.
“The decision to invest in the Coltex roll-to-roll came after careful consideration. We have a longstanding relationship with GJS — it's not just about the machine but the support behind it.”
— Jamie Williams, Founder
Sunshine Coast, QLD
Coast Imagewear
Tracey started with embroidery and expanded into digital garment decoration after attending a GJS DTF workshop. Coast Imagewear now uses a Brother GTXpro alongside DTF solutions to serve the workwear, high-vis, and tradie market across Queensland.
DTF opened up product categories previously too difficult to decorate profitably — creating new revenue streams that didn't exist before.
“DTF lets us conquer customisation of workwear and high-vis that other methods can't touch.”
— Tracey, Owner
