Abstract
A direct-to-garment personalization system for personalizing an article includes a direct-to-garment printer configured to print a graphic onto the article, wherein the article is assembled with a packaging to form a packaged article. The packaging has a left joint having a body portion and a neck portion; a right joint having a body portion and a neck portion; and a plurality of expansion joints pivotally connecting the body portion of the left joint to the body portion of the right joint. The plurality of expansion joints are configured to move the left and right joints between a retracted position and an expansion position. When in the expanded position, the frame is configured to keep the article taut for printing. The system also includes a storage area housing the packaged article; and a transfer system configured to retrieve the packaged article from the storage area and move the article to the direct-to-garment printer.
