The bed size is 13 x 22 inches and 5 1/2" deep so most things that can fit in that space. Tiles, wood, golf balls, canvas, puzzles. I am sure there are more things I am not thinking of but you can print on alot of stuff.

Yep I have seen those too, also I saw a coffee table that was in sections that someone printed. Did you see that one? it was pretty cool.

Wow, so it doesn't have to be a specific substance like cotton or polyester.
And you just heat press whatever you print and you're good to go?

I'm not sure about the heatpressing, there is another pretreatment for doing hard substrates that I think you just coat your print with after you do it.

Oh ok, that makes more sense. I figured that heat pressing would damage wood. I read somewhere about printing banners. Have you heard anything about that?

So that's the same way you do the golf balls too then right? Can you print ink pens and promotional items on it?

I am not sure about pens, I think on screen printers university I saw where someone was printing shoe laces .

Yes, as far as the wood goes, it would be the same as printing the golf balls, where you spray them with a pretreatment to get the ink to adhere and then you spray again when they are finished with a sealer.
