Vinyl T-shirt printing, often know as vinyl heat transfer, is a process that involves a machine that cuts out designs and letters. These designs and letters are done on pieces of coloured vinyl. Then, a heat press is utilized to transfer each piece of vinyl onto the material. At its simplest form, vinyl printing involves the use of large, wide-format inkjet printing machines to reproduce images on huge rolls of coated plastic. These rolls are specially coated/treated to receive inks and enable high-resolution image reproduction.
