Digitally printed t-shirt transfers...and a supplier for them.

The screened inks hold up way better if printed properly and mainly, CURED properly. That's where most people go wrong.

That's what I was hinting at with an earlier post.

Now, I will say as far as wash durability you can't beat sublimation. However, it does have it's downsides though. I would either do DTG or screen print over heat transfers in this context though.

And what context is that, exactly?

Pat,
We use Opaque Solutions from Imprintables. I can print off a sample and drop it in the mail.
Not a fan of the color print, has too much of a paper feel for me.

As far as the op's opening question, I'm sure there are many people here that can print them for you.
Now onto the comments that it will be as good as screen printing and that screen printed shirts will crack and fall off after a year, well you need to find a better screen printer. If done properly, the print will outlast the shirt. Period. Transfers and screened shirts are not even in the same ballpark or league or even the same planet for that matter. :) just my .02.

Have you tried ColorPrint II or PU? Those are softer than any of the options we have tried under the Stahls Umbrella save for vivid print.

Solutions Opaque doesn't work properly in our latex so we really haven't tried it too much.

I still say that if you are doing 8 or more of the image to go with a process screen transfer.

I've been washing some test shirts harshly - Not turned inside-out, in bleach loads, drying high heat and they're holding up great (pressed vinyl).
