Belt printing is a method for printing. A belt printer uses huge screens that cover the entire front and back of the garment. The method is best for all-over pattern printing, but works best on designs with limited colors.
It was largely popular in the 1970s.
Famous quotes containing the words belt and/or press:
“But the lightning which explodes and fashions planets, maker of planets and suns, is in him. On one side elemental order, sandstone and granite, rock-ledges, peat-bog, forest, sea and shore; and on the other part, thought, the spirit which composes and decomposes nature,—here they are, side by side, god and devil, mind and matter, king and conspirator, belt and spasm, riding peacefully together in the eye and brain of every man.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The press is, almost without exception, corrupt.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
