Help in setting up new T company.

our sublimation printer is 44" wide, our press is 43" wide, but is a rotary press, so not sure it would work well for printing to ready made shirts. I'd think doing cut and sew for t-shirts would be too expensive.
Maybe another member has an A2+ flat press that could help you.
The other thing I was going to say about the press you linked to is that is likely not big enough, as presses tend to be cooler towards the edges.

Been looking on eBay and found this press - says the rubber needs replacing but it's a BETA - any thoughts ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/381176806126? ... EBIDX%3AIT

that's a good press, should hold its value for resale

[Bruno]

Does the rubber needing replacing bother you?

What would you charge per A2 sublimation sheet?

Also where are you based?

hard to know without using the press as to whether the state of the rubber affects pressing or not.
Pricing we could offer for transfers would depend on how many you'd want at a time and how many different images there are.

In order to get a quote and give me an idea. I would prepare photoshop files to correct size say 4 different designs - and get 25 of each. If you like we can continue this conversation via email brunotilley@mac.com

I would be a little concerned doing A2 on a press that size as to how well it would print right to the edge. There is probably going to be a temperature gradient right out at the edge.

I print 60x40 on my pressmech, which is 65 x 50, I think. I would not press right to edge, there is a temp drop at the edge.

[Bruno]

Where the temp drops out - what happens to the image - does it fade out ?

I've written to the press owners to get some feedback but how much would one allow for temp drop 10cm - 20cm?
