Time to print one shirt.
Okay, first...
How long does it take you to print one shirt, one side with one color?
How many shirts can you print in one minute? Once everything is set up perfectly.
Just curious to see what the results are of an individual screen printer.

Re: Time to print one shirt. white or light, normal size print- load-print, unload: less than 15 seconds, averages out to 120/hr
dark color w/ flash 25-30 seconds, avg. about 60/hr.
get good at printing first, don't worry about speed, it will come with practice.

Re: Time to print one shirt. On my auto we print every 3.5 seconds
17 per minute
1020 per hour
I wish it were that simple. While the press is running we average about 400 per hour.

Re: Time to print one shirt. 7 per minute humpin it, 5 per minute normal. I load print and remove by myself. The pay is better sometimes at 7 but there are less mistakes at 5 so in the end sometimes it evens out.
