Yeah you can put in a different screen but still keep the same shirt there.

if you are screen printing one shirt, then yea you could definently register up multiple colors, but then you are spending a lot of time and money making screens for one shirt.

If you are printing multiple shirts, it's practically impossible to register each individual shirt with multiple colors.

Alternatively, if your design doesn't require much registration (two 1 colour placement prints for example) then you could also do it.

Or learn to do plastisol transfers with it. You have to flash and register each color on when making plastisol transfer anyway. Good luck!
