Question press a print

Hi everyone

Looking to start silk screening and product printing business out of my home. Has anyone heard of or have experience with a company called "Press a Print"?

Any advice appreciated

I took a look at one...it looks like a Printa 770 printer. They are good for simple artwork and saves space, but if your wanting to print multi-color detailed artwork, buy a good multi-head printer.
Folks are selling them right here on this site like the Hopkins, Workhorse, M&R, Vastex, you'll be glad you did. However, if you just want to do simple stuff, get a Press a Print. I saw one on E-Bay for $500 bucks, only it is in Florida and says pickup only. You might talk them into shipping.
Good luck on starting up................

Beware of Press-A-Print! The equipment that they offer is antiquated and will leave you working for minimum wage trying to compete with real professionals in the industry that have state of the art equipment. I'm mad as hell and am presently trying to get my $33,000 back from this scammer!

Take Greg's advice and invest in a better product. Press*a*print is fine for a hobbiest but not if you are doing this for a job. You must have the proper equipment
