Default Need advice to buy the right t-shirt printer

Hi there.
I'm looking to start my own t-shirt business and I have been looking for a t-shirt printer.
I need a printer that I can set up at home as well as moved it to some events I will attend and sell t-shirts upon requests.

Can you give me advise what will be the smartest printer to buy, regarding price, performance, mobility and maintenance?

Direct to Garment printer is the only name I know for 'tee shirt printers' unless you mean to use a normal printer and heat press to make transfers for tee shirts.

DTG printers are 15k to 25k and not really that easy to more around...you can do it but care must be taken...these are not small easy to carry units..

If you mean to print on heat transfer paper and then press... most any inkjet with pigment ink will do a good job..such as epson C86+ or the Epson C120 etc.. and I would suggest a 15x15 press you can find more detailed info if you search the threads
