Has anyone printed on the Sport Tek ST700 and had good success? If so how did you accomplish a nice smooth print?
I have not had great success with these. I am having fibrillation issues and it always prints rough. It is one of the only
products I have trouble with.

they are a PAIN. you'll need an ink with good mat down, and no blowing agent. We print these through either a 150s or 180s, but we prefer the 150's.
You can also use a smoothing screen or heat press them at the end.
We try and avoid these honestly.

Yeah I have tried different white inks. I have used the roller. I have grey based with top white.
I loathe ST700 but I have one customer that likes them a lot. Plus I just want to beat this
garment and figure out the magical combination!

I have never had luck with these.
Ultimately, I had to use a heat press at the end to get the image smooth.
God speed on your journey. Keep the swear jar close, because im sure you might fill it up trying to figure out these shirts...
