You can buy a kit for the PC printer to create your own designs...special iron paper etc.
Any good printers can do what you want...however be careful as to the type of printing they offer you Iron on (Hot Press) eventually tends to lift and you have to be careful in the design IE very solid sections, another iron on way is called Flock this tends to be slightly dearer but you can have multicolours the other way is screen printing and it doesn't have to be flat print you can get inks that raise when they are dried for the first time..again this ink is dearer than the usual inks and it has to be dried twice (called flashing) it will crack eventually unless you have a pure cotton shirt cos then you can use very special inks that when they are dried after printing actually become part of the cloth. as you are up country from me it would be pointless for me to give you phone numbers of local printers (even though one is my sponsor, they do more than just print shirts, link on my team site) so try the yellow pages.

No good if you've already bought the playing jerseys, but if you're getting new ones for a team then most of the suppliers (e.g. Smart Parts, Raven etc) will print near enough whatever you want. Best example I've seen lately is Menace from down south - Dennis the Menace on all their tops done by Smart Parts.
just look in your yellow pages for t-shirt printers they can do cheap deals. my other team had our full names printed on the back in big letters for £2 a top.
also find a sports shop that supplies football/rugby teams. some of them can do simple letter and logo printing in house. i had some marshal and team tops done about 18 months ago at one. full back print in plastic type stuff £70 for 20 tops. still going well after a year and a half of being in the wash twice a week.

if you go the inkjet paper way make sure you get the right paper.
Standard iron on transfer paper for inkjet printers comes on transparent carrier film and thus allows the colour of the garment to show through. This is okay if you have a white garment of any other light colour but a bitch when you try it on a black garment. this is because ther is no white ink in a printer
If you are trying to print onto a dark garment you need to get hold of dark transfer type paper. This has a white carrier filmn and so lays down a white background under the print that you have done.
this stuff looks cool if you spend some time over laying it on( you iron it on and peel the backing off when the design has cooled)
and is the easiest and cheapest way to do custom logos for teams.
the media cost about eight quid for ten a4 sheets
