Hey guys, I'm new here, and was wondering if you would like to help me out on this question.

I'm looking to print some shirts for my company using the sublimation printing style, as alot of companies i have worked with or have admired due to there prints use this style called Sublimation Printing.

Here are some examples of what im talking about

Now for this style of printing, would I just have to go to someone who prints with a large scale sublimation printer and then have them printed on a special type of paper then transfered onto the shirt with a heat press?

My sister used to work at a printshop down town, so i know that if they offer this style of printing that ill be able to do a couple test runs with various designs i have in the works.

If anyone could please clue me in on this stuff, I've always been interested, but not entirely sure about the whole process.

thanks dudes

More than likely, they were printed first and then sewn together.
There is a thread on how it is done here if I can find it. (Big machines and lots of overhead.)
The thread all over printing sources - screen printing print all-over the t-shirt with a belt screen printer

There shirts are designed using a large format printer and pressed using a large format press. Do you have a sublimation vendor. Many of our customers would like to offer these type of shirts, but they do not have the equipment .....many have used our fullfillment department as means to be able to offer these type of shirts.
