In today’s printing industry, customer demands are becoming increasingly diverse and demanding. They don’t just want to print on T-shirts, fabric bags, or label decals—they also require direct printing on plastic bottles, paper cups, paper tubes, or tin cans.
Many small print shops often find themselves in frustrating situations:
A customer orders T-shirts – no problem.
But when they ask for bottle printing – the shop has to decline.
Or vice versa – only having a round printer means you can’t print T-shirts.
The result? Lost customers, damaged reputation, and lost revenue.
That’s why the multifunctional screen printer is the ideal solution for print shops that want to accept a wide variety of orders—helping you expand services, increase revenue, while saving on space and investment costs.

1. What Is a Multifunctional Screen Printer?
A multifunctional screen printer is a device that combines both flat and cylindrical printing capabilities within a single machine.
Flat printing: T-shirts, non-woven bags, decals, labels, paper boxes, wood, plastic sheets.
Cylindrical printing: Cosmetic bottles, plastic/glass bottles, plastic/paper cups, paper tubes, tin cans.
Instead of purchasing two separate machines (flat + cylindrical), which takes more capital and space, one multifunctional printer covers both needs.
2. Why Are Screen Printing Orders Becoming More Diverse?
The promotional gift market is booming.
Brands want direct logo printing on packaging for better recognition.
Cafés and milk tea shops need custom plastic and paper cups.
Cosmetics and food brands want direct printing on bottles or cans.
T-shirts and fabric bags remain core screen printing products.
Today’s customers want a “one-stop shop” that can do it all.
Whoever has the right machine keeps the customer. Those who don’t must decline or outsource—cutting into profits.
