The Brother GT-541 uses ink jet technology that prints on many garments in high quality color directly from a computer. The GT-541 marks the progression from screen printing technologies to a cleaner, faster, and more productive way to imprint images on garments. This ink jet garment printer is as simple to operate as a desktop printer, can network with multiple units, and delivers great print quality. The investment for printing can be as low as .50 cents for the ink and $1 to $2 for the t-shirt, which can be sold at market rate from $15-$30.

The GT-541 is faster and less expensive to operate than traditional screen printing machines because there is no set-up, tear-down, clean-up, screens, squeegees, or pallet adhesive. The GT-541 water based ink can be cured by a standard heat press, eliminating the need to purchase a conveyor dryer, and significantly reducing operating space requirements.
“The industry is literally lining up to bring the GT-541 into their businesses,” said Peter Holland, Senior Director. “Brother is the only manufacturer developing this technology that has field tested their printer for over one year at embroidery and screen printing businesses. We placed twenty-nine units and imprinted more than 100,000 shirts in a real-world setting to make sure we delivered the quality and durability we projected.”
Brother’s GT-541 concludes its debut at key Latino Heritage Month events as part of a test market introduction to the US Latino market, it will participate in Univision Radio’s Risas y Ritmo (Laughter and Music) hosted by renowned Spanish DJ “Piolin” Sotelo, Girls Night Out hosted by Rocio Sandoval “Peligrosa,” at the Fiestas Patrias event at the Los Angeles Coliseum and Sports Arena, the LA County Fair at the Pomona Fairgrounds, and will culminate at the National Latino Congreso.
“We want to close the gap in technology among Latino screen printers and introduce the latest technology to people who aspire to opening their own business,” said Fernando Padilla owner of Stitch City, a Brother International distributor in Southern California. “We are introducing this new technology as part of a test market to give the Latino Textile industry – and the community at large – an introduction of the businesses possibilities of owning the GT-541 a technology that is more efficient and less expensive to operate than traditional screen printing and that is currently revolutionizing the costly screen printing industry.”
