I Found these shirts online and I was wondering how this was accomplished. Is it dye sublimation or something else? If it is ink how do you control overprinting?

Printed before cutting the material and sewing into a shirt.

It can be done with a roller printer (a type of screen printing machine) and it can be done by the method Richard stated (printing the fabric before it is sewn together into a shirt).

If you do a forum search for all over printing and you'll see a few more topics about this.

depends on how the material was cut.

the bottom was probably printed on a flat bed press. There are not too many printers that produce that type of priting. One other way to tell would be to purchase a shirt and carefully examine the seams and sewings.

We print off the shirt quite a bit. Around the next and off the bottom. We flash after the print so we can keep loading more shirts without having to clean the palette after every print.

Thank you, very much for the comments and incite.

Can you tell me a little about you set up for large printing, are you hand screening?

Also if you could direct me to any info about roll printing it would be greatly appreciated!
