Fiery releases Digital Factory 12 RIP for DTF

Fiery has announced the launch of Digital Factory 12, saying the release marks a significant advancement for print providers seeking superior colour, streamlined production, and easy workflow automation with direct-to-film (DTF) and direct-to-garment (DTG) printing. Digital Factory 12 introduces advanced, professional-grade tools that scale as print businesses grow.

Fiery says the RIP is built for rapidly growing DTF and DTG businesses and offers the same Fiery colour technology as it’s predecessors. 

New saturation rendering intent for vibrant textiles. Created specifically for DTF and textile workflows, the new saturation rendering intent boosts vibrancy in traditionally dull areas while preserving natural skin tones. It delivers punchier, more impactful colour without the risk of oversaturation, ideal for apparel decoration, heat transfers, and promotional items.

Fiery Colour Profiler: Professional-grade colour calibration and profiling. 
Digital Factory 12 introduces the most advanced colour engine in Digital Factory history. With the new Fiery Colour Profiler add-on, print operators can achieve repeatable, professional-quality output using supported spectrophotometers to calibrate printers and build ICC profiles in-house.

Digital Factory 12’s new, streamlined interface and powerful production tools reduce complexity and time-to-print, allowing both experienced and novice operators to produce complicated jobs.
Native visual Gang Sheet Builder for drag-and-drop layout. 

Replacing the need for third-party tools, the new Gang Sheet Builder brings a visual, drag-and-drop layout directly into Digital Factory. Operators can preview, group, nest, and auto-close sheets, all from the queue. Which Fiery claims is more intuitive and engineered specifically for DTF production needs.

Enhanced markup tools to reduce finishing. 
An expanded markup system allows for clearer labels, orientation indicators, and finishing guides, which help reduce cutting mistakes, speed up post-print processes, and keep print jobs organised.
“The DTF and DTG print market is growing rapidly, and customers want less friction, more impactful colour, and future-ready workflows that take their operations to the next level. For over 30 years, Fiery has provided the colour technology that tens of thousands of printers worldwide have relied on for the best colour quality in digital printing. Digital Factory 12 changes the game for DTF and DTG printing with that same professional-grade colour calibration, combined with smart automation tools that scale as print businesses grow. Whether you’re printing your first custom t-shirt or your thousandth, Digital Factory 12 brings you the capabilities you need to reach your full printing potential,” said Toby Weiss, CEO, Fiery.
