Answer 1

Most companies use a method of screen printing.

Answer 2

You can buy special paper which when printed on in reverse the image can be ironed on to fabric. Most printers have settings for that.

Answer 3

its a screen print and it prints screens with your design then you use the screens to apply the various colors you want

Answer 4

Screen printing / heat transfer.

You can buy 2nd-hand screen printing machines that will do t-shirts for about 100 quid, or more depending on how many plates they have (for doing more than one item at a time).

Answer 6

Try this website and typing in your question: ehow.com but I think if you want to do this as a career or turn it into a lucritive business then you should do at least a course on it, Graphic Design might be a start.

Answer 7

That would be a silk screen machine they are pretty cool.

Answer 8

You should just transfer an image.

Print off any image you want onto transfer paper, (which you can buy in most stationary shops) and then you iron it on.

If you want to buy a machine then you should take a look at the link.
