Sure it is possible, but have to ask the question why would you want to do it! It's like putting a t-shirt in an oven to press the image. Okay, so it will vacuum form and suck the paper to the face of the t-shirt so yes it is possible, but i wouldn't recommend subbing t-shirts that way :)

There's lots of ways to string a cat as they say (i think that's the expression) and the other expression would be "right tool for the job" ... you could print a t-shirt with an iron or a trouser press, but they're not the right tool for the job.
