3 T-shirt Printers Introduction T-shirt printers are a constant at any digital printing expo, no matter how big or small the trade show there are always many t-shirt printers in exhibition. Some of the t-shirt printers in exhibition use pigment, dye sublimation or UV inks and others use toner. UV inks and pigment are for direct-to-fabric printing, and toner and dye sublimation are for printing onto transfer paper.
