The Pro S And Con S Of Using Screen Printing For T Shirt Transfers Designs

By Timothy Lewis


Printing t-shirts is now 60 years old give or take depending on what sources were consulted. T shirt transfers designs can be done in a number of ways and for a multitude of reasons. At the risk of sounding philosophical, T-shirts are not only an item of clothing that is used to cover the body but they can also be used to tell a story. How that story is told, however, can be broken down in a number of ways.

The first and most common method to print t-shirts is through the use of a screen printer. This can be done and is accessible from small business owner to large-scale, professional t-shirt printers. Although the method itself is inexpensive, it does grow with alongside the type of printer used and could be unnecessarily expensive if the printer used is for 2 t-shirts for example.

For mass produced products it is usually the type of printing to root for but it does require more dedication and time in order to master before the doors can be opened for people looking to print their custom shirts.

But in exchange for all those savings, there is a catch. For one, it is a very old method of printing and as such, so is the turnaround time for a completed product. This time is made even longer with the use of more than two colors and lastly, in this modern day and age, doesn t do well with high-quality images.

A great way to print t-shirts at home is through the use of what is known as the Heat transfer Paper method. As the name implies, it s through the use of transfer paper, which can be bought from any retailer and then use a printer in order to print the design that one would use on their custom t-shirt.

By using a hard surface, one can then use an iron or anything that generates heat to iron the transfer paper onto the t-shirt. One should ensure that they have placed that shirt in question on a flat surface because any creases that are there will appear.

Color is everything. The more colors one has on the design or t-shirt they want to be printed, the longer the turnaround time for that item will be. Not only will it take a longer time to reproduce the colors but the margin for error is magnified with every new color as there should be a separate individual screen that needs to be created for that particular color.

All in all, these are just three of many methods in which a person or business can use to print custom t-shirts and use for advertising purposes for example. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages and therefore, it s important to evaluate one s needs before making a commitment. Taking into consideration, the time needed to create one garment, design and the colors used depending on the aforementioned needs, some methods work better than others.
