Hi all! I am very new to the DTG world. I am currently in the "researching stage." I am almost positive I will be purchasing a machine and starting a new business but I'm having trouble with some of the terms. What does "flex" refer to in the t-shirt world? I'm actually trying to come up with a name for my business and I like "digital flex" but I do not want to mislead clients if this is a completely different process. Any help is much appreciated.
Also, I am very impressed with the new Neoflex machine but since I'm just starting out & this machine is expensive, which machine do you reccomend for just starting out on a small scale that prints on darks (new or used)? Thanks again
wow lots of help in this forum, really glad i stopped by! what about the second question guys? small business starting up 8000 to 9000 price range for dtg printing on darks?
Yes (the whole package), that's the machine I want to upgrade to one day, but just starting out and to get the name out there looking to start small. Any ideas? refurb OK.
When I hear the word flex in printing, I tend to think of flexography where a flexible plate is used to usually print on plastic or metals (and of course paper) through rollers...different process. In the DTG world, Flexi-Jet would be the word I'm most familiar with flex since it was used to describe it's larger printing area, as in flexible.
