[HALF A PIPI]

First post... I want to print a design...

***From whole shoulder only front and back to short and long sleeve (possibly right around) cotton garments i.e t-shirts, shirts and hoodies using one color.

After much research I've found no machine is able to do that and I can now understand why.

My question is then....Can I pre-cut garments to be able to achieve this???? wether it be on DTG, screen printing, embroidery, dye sub etc.

Advise would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Yes, it's called cut and sew. Oftentimes fabric will be printed on a roll to roll fabric printer then cut and sewed. Screen printing and dye sublimation are other methods for this as well.

You can screen print called all over printing using a waterbased ink that goes over the seams with no problems. You are talking larger volumes to be cost effective, but it can be done.

Only way and cheapest way and fastest way is screen print. The area Dtg will never can't challenge
Cheers! Beers are on me always.

Well as long as white fabric is considered , a 70 x 120 cm DTG machine could be pretty darn cost effective for small cut and sew runs.
