T-shirt All-over Printing, How to Achieve?

All-over sublimation printing is very common in our daily life. Especially when you walking on the street, you will find that there are many t-shirts are made by all-over sublimation printing technology. But how to make such a t-shirt, do you know?
 

1. Design your ideal images with computer

Before printing, you should measure the garment, and design the image in advance in the computer. If you want to have a mass production, measure a garment from every size in the job, smallest to largest, and create a template for each. Then you can save a lot of sublimation ink, and you can also save a lot of time.

2. Print the image to the sublimation paper

The second step is print the image to the sublimation paper with your large format inkjet printer. In this step, you should know a software called RIP (raster image processing), this software is basically a print driver on steroids. The image is loaded into the RIP software and printed on the heat-transfer paper, which is then cut from the printer and taken to the heat-transfer work station.

3. Prepping the garment

Flatten the t-shirt as much as possible in an effort to minimize creasing. The small areas under the sleeves where they connect to the rest of the body of the shirt usually present the biggest problem because they tend to wrinkle when pressed flat. A wrinkle in the garment prevents the ink from sublimating under that spot. This is a limitation of the process that should always be explained to the customer by showing them a physical example of an all-over printed garment. Sometimes this is not acceptable to the client, but more often than not they can live with it.

4. Press the garment

Once the garment is prepared, the heat press is lowered and allowed to dwell anywhere from 30 seconds to one minute, depending mostly on fabric content.

There are some small differences between normal t-shirt printing and all-over sublimation printing, but both of them are not difficult. You can have a try if you have the equipment by your side.
