I am not only new in this forum, I am also new in the area of t-shirt printing.

I currently sell t-shirts made and customized by others and my love for t-shirt designs and customizing made me decide to start my own t-shirt customizing company.

Also, i do not want to start making the kind of t-shirts i used to sell for others. They were hard to sell because of the low print quality. Customers complain that the print does not appear sharp enough and that it start fading off after washing the shirt a couple of times. For this reason, i want my offering to be higher promise of quality.

I need experts in the house to advise me on the the appropriate printing technology and printer to use. I don't have any garment printing experience, so the DTG looks like the easiest way out cos of its "plug and play" nature. Would it give me the quality i desire? Which of the printers is best for me?

Kindly advise.

Unfortunately its not "plug and play" per say. But, if you have the time to invest in the early stages of buying the printer and the patience to make it work, you will get the quality you are after. I'm not sure where you are located but I would strongly suggest you go for a printer with a good local support setup as thats important if you are new to the whole printing side of things. Good luck!
