Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
I ALWAYS put my shirt on the platen so the bottom of the neck hem is exactly at the edge of the platen. It is like that for every single shirt I print (ignoring weird occasional placements of course). Location may change from design to design based on the height of the image, and on some designs I may change the placement for a 2XL vs a Y-Small, but within sizes and on most adult only jobs every shirt is the exact same distance from the bottom of the neck hem.I don't mean to sound high and mighty, but it shouldn't be hard to have little or no variance. I have seen videos with people putting shirts on platens where the neck hem is on the platen, and sometimes far off the platen. I have never understood why... If I want it higher or lower, I move the platen in or out, not try to put the shirt in a random place on the platen consistently...
I agree. We never move our platens here. Hem of the collar on the edge of platens for l and xl, hole of the shirt on the edge for xs to m, a bit off the platen for 2xl+.Never any complaints about print location. If you set up the screens and art consistently, it makes the loaders so much more efficient.
I guess I'm one of the dumbazz's because I never move my platens, I move my shirt and can hit the same place with all shirts, not very hard to do if you load/unload shirts enough. Some orders I go from kid shirts to adult shirts, I've done that chit so much that I can hit the same place because I know where I need to place each shirt, I just can't see moving the pallets all the time.darryl
