Talking Vinyl Printing Help Please...

Hi all,

I have a GeoKnight DK20s Heat Press and will be getting a Roland Vinyl Cutter. I am hoping to produce different coloured t-shirts with different coloured text and some basic images.

What other equipment do I need to start producing these t-shirts and does anyone know any websites where I could get this equipment, or any advice from your expereince?

Thanks a Lot

Art V.

can you use a circut to cut vinyl for t-shirts. I set up at special events and print shirts at the events. I am looking for a machine that will enable me to do this without taking a computer with me. buck 1

Hi, if you are looking for a small cutter have a look at the Graphtec ce5000-40, it takes 19" material and will cut almost 15" it also has a optical eye for contour cuts around inkjet transfers.
