The new Digitran FlexLine DTF600 combines printing and finishing in one machine, creating stretchable and colour-fast heat transfer films for garment printing. It features two robust print heads, which can be used to achieve a print resolution of 720dpi, and uses water- based and Oeko-Tex-certified inks in CMYK and white. With its in-line module, the machine automatically applies an adhesive powder to the prints and also dries them. This means that operators just need to load the print files and then cut them to size once they have been printed. imagesmag.uk/digitran-dtf DecoNetwork adds integration with WordPress A new feature has been added for DecoNetwork, the online platform for garment decorators, that allows for integration with WordPress-based websites. Subscribers can tap into the new option through a custom application programming interface, or API, which is a software intermediary that allows two applications to talk to each other. The integration allows users to work as a fulfilment centre, use payment gateways such as Apple Pay, Amazon, Google, 2Checkout and cryptocurrency, use NetSuite, sync catalogues with Facebook and Instagram, analyse Google and Facebook reports to convert visitors to orders, export orders and users via .csv files, and seamlessly pull images from DecoNetwork. To use the new integration with a DecoNetwork subscription, users must have DecoNetwork API access, which is available through its Enterprise and Legacy plans. imagesmag.uk/deconetwork- wordpress Geiger, which distributes promotional clothing and other promotional products, has appointed Joe Clayton as sales coordinator.
