Hi,

I have recently bought a embroidery and screen printing business. Having no experience in this area the screen printing is giving me a bit of a headacre. its messy and unpredictable.
making up the screens are time consuming.
I was looking at purchasing a printing machine to go directly onto shirts, but they are very costly and i need to use the colour white on the school uniforms.
Having a small business, i dont do screening everyday., so i am looking for a machine that is cost effective and wont break the bank.
could anyone give me some advice on the machines to purchase and how easy they are to use.
i was looking at the Ricoh Gx7000, but notice they only go on polyester fibres. Are there any other machines anyone would recommend. Thanks.

Keep in mind that DTG systems are pretty expensive as an initial purchase. My printer has his DTG machine for sale since he has moved to all contract fulfillment and doesn't do small jobs anymore - the link is here: http://www.t-shirtforums.com/tf-classifieds/t122485.html - not saying it's what you need but always an option.
