Methods Used In Custom Digital T-Shirt Printing

By Sharon Thompson


Nowadays Digital printing is the largely method used to print pictures and images as well as text on t-shirts. This trend has taken a different turn since the introduction of machines for the job since many used to do the task manually. The main reason for custom digital t-shirt printing is to make them look good and more attractive due to images or text printed on them.

There is availability of different ways are used for masking the shirts with the relevant design of text or image wanted. The first one is done manually by hands but others are done by the use of machines. The best machine is called pressing and is used for pressing pictures from the paper to the cloth and the picture of anything on the paper sticks to the cloth.

There are different custom printing methods available in the market today and every designer makes sure to have everything in place before the process begins. However, since cloths are made of different materials from different manufacturing companies, the designer must understand what is needed in making signature for every type of cloth. Material used in making the t-shirt must be well understood in order to achieve the desired outcome so you will know which method to use.

Quality level of textiles depend on different textile manufacturers hence you are supposed to know the one who has created reputation for quality of clothes they offer. Designers who are advanced are today looking for grade commercial papers instead of transfer ones. This is because the advanced ones use heat pressing method to transfer the picture to the shirt instead of using more energy for the task when you use the paper transfer material.

In almost everything all over the world, it has befits and losses for using them. Therefore, the process of pressing the design on the cloth by use of heat has some benefits. The first one is that it can make masks which cannot be made from any other technique and is also very fast and accurate. This makes it possible to produce a lot of designer clothes to the market with a short time.

The other thing is that there is no material this machine cannot tackle hence making it the best for business since you can complete many orders in a day than anyone using other methods. The inkjet in the printer is well made to mix all the colors in the cartridge to achieve the color wanted. Therefore, it is important to have the heat pressing machine to expand the business.

The other advantage of custom digital printing is that you will not have to carry out any preparations before the job comes. This is because all the material needed will be available on time and the ink will also be mixed from the printer. All you will have to do is to position design paper so it will be printed on the side of cloth you want and then press the print button.

Although the machine has all those advantages, it cannot print a white color picture or shirt image since it does not have white ink in the cartridge. Therefore, you will have to use special papers for printing which consist of all colors and can be used on white t-shirts. This is the only disadvantage but is the best technique to use in times you need no white for the signature.
