test print on automatic

[Fleetee]

What part of the t-shirt do you guys use to ensure that you guys are threading the shirt consistently throughout a design. Anything other tips/tricks and advice other than the collar and the shoulders of a shirt? I'm very new to the automatic and just wanted some knowledge from people who've been threading t-shirts onto an automatic for decades. I'm sure you guys developed some tricks over time. Please be kind of enough to share  8)
Thanks in advance printers!

Load the same as you been loading a manual.

But faster, hopefully!

Nah but practice really does make perfect.

I made a .gif out of a video someone posted here and I keep it in our documents to help with training: https://m.imgur.com/wGTJXle

‘Flip loading’ seems to be the smoothest motion and let’s you do a quick quality check of the backside.

Pull it on, and pull it back into place.

Good luck!

It's easier with cardboard shirts like those :)

I flip load and teach all new people to do the same. In my opinion its easier to square the shirt up and teach someone to become more accurate and faster quicker.

And, flipping increases the chances of catching way more holes, stains, and bad seams because both sides get a look (though, albeit brief)
