Default Conveyor dryer is shrinking my shirts
I am using american apparel shirts which are 100% ringspun cotton and they fit perfect prior to printing...but after curing the ink in my conveyor dryer the shirts have shrunk significantly.

Has anyone found a resolution to preserve the fit of shirts after printing?

Whats the temperature of the ink when it comes out of the conveyor, Use a digital heat gun.
