Direct-to-garment shirts are printed using waterbased ink. Curing a direct-to-garment shirt takes the water out of the waterbased ink and leaves the pigments behind, creating a washfast print.
Since Florida is humid, your shirts will be wetter to start out with and curing will take a little longer. It won't be much longer, though.
Compare printing with the T-Jet to screen printing t-shirts. No color separations necessary. No film positives. No screens to shoot. No screens to setup, register, ink, and later clean. And it can fit into a corner of a room. A prospective t-shirt designer would be very happy with this printer.
is 12x12 the max size for this printer?

@jantzen216 The printer can print up to 13" x 21". There are several different shirt holder sizes available, as well as a cap attachment.

You talked about humidity. Is it more or less time for curing in humid Florida?
