Generally, textile printing has been operated through transferring media, such as
screens and rollers. Each transferring media is designed and allocated
for a specific color. A block printing and engraved copper printing are
operating through these methods. A number of woodblocks that are
designed in block printing give a number of colors in design. Advantage
of using this type of method is that you can have three dimensional
effects due to its color separation and layers, and still today rotary
screen printing method is used in designing of traditional floral
patterns and toile designs.
Mechanical or traditional fabric printing methods some times manipulate in both way, by design aesthetics and
styles, while in the field of printed textile design with the latest
digital fabric printing technology it enhanced the style and meaning of
printed textile design. It is a fact that the new latest methods of
digital printing on fabrics have exposed new horizons to the designers
and manufacturers. Digital printing methods have facilitated
manufactures to make a digital sampling and have advantages of change in
designs before engraving. By adopting digital printing techniques you
can re-adjust conventional printing design and can able to give new
looks in design.
Today, many customers are demanding fabrics to be
printed with various color combinations, styles, designs, traditional
designs and looks, but to co-up with these customization demands there
has been a limitation to attend the entire mass market with traditional
printing technology. Digital printing profits over conventional printing
it provide noteworthy benefits like quick turn-around, efficient set-up
and speed, economical and great flexibility, takes less time,
alteration possible etc. And in today's customer oriented market the
printing technology is not limited to wearing wears; but it bounds to
its limits and reaches to the requirements of trade show graphics,
picture of huge fabric posters of television and movie stars,
advertising purposes, flags and banners and many mores.
Unlike any
traditional textile printing technology, the main benefit of digital
fabric printing is in its process color application with its latest
printers, software applications. Photographic and tonal graphics shaped
millions of colors with Photoshop and can be printed on fabric according
to the color combination requirement. Wider color scope and finer
printing quality are available with the latest development of inks,
color management software. In the traditional process colors of CMYK,
you can have various color combination with addition of extra preset
colors like orange, blue, green, and also there is availability of
various type of software with these complex color combination. These
preset colors reduce importance of screens or rollers for printing, and
there is no need of repeat the size and other combination with no limit
with color combinations in designs.
From digital textile printing
technology you can have latest innovative and creative deigns like
concepts of shadow, shimmering, vibration, reflection, moire, optical,
translucent, netting, blurring, layering, superimposing, etc., instead
of making special efforts with traditional methods of printing. Today,
the printing technology developed so tremendously and became so
eco-friendly, user-friendly that, even designers can make its products
without taking help from textile designers.
