We can print a wide variety of garment and cloth material such as T-shirts, shirts, bags, tablecloth, curtains, and towels. To print, we use many methods each with its specific use or advantage. Here we will see what these are and discuss the good and bad points of each.

The most popular method of screen printing

The most widely used method is that of screen printing. You must have heard of this because it is used in desktop publishing also. Here we use a printing screen and a wide mesh to hold it.

The equipment is robust and so it will stand for as many applications as needed.

The disadvantage of using screen printing

The downside is that the print will be coarse. It cannot make any fine prints. So, if your design or logo is small, it will become blurred. Secondly, it will not work for multicolor prints. So, if you have too many colors in your T-shirt design, you cannot use this method. It is economical otherwise and used for large-scale printing.
