Graphic Design & Printing Question

I'm interested in stating up a printing company & right now I'm spinning my wheels & I hope someone here can offer me some help & point me in the right direction.

1st thing...I want to be able to print standard double sided 4" x 8 " nightclub flyers, obituaries & other type of promotional material. I'm confused as to which type of commercial printer I would need. Also, I'm confused as to do the printers come with UV coating or do I need to purchase a separate machine.

I also want to be able to screen print T-Shirts, or possible do the iron on ones, you know like how people do the " RIP " shirts.

Does anyone have any experience in this field, any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
I am in this business now ( business printing, apparel, promotional products). Be aware that there is a lot of competition in this business and companies arent breaking the bread very easily (you will be doing mostly business to business sales). Join ASI and PPAI. You won't have to actually print any of the stuff yourself (big manufacturers do it) and you just margin up from manufacturer cost and make money. You have to establish a strong client base though or you will fold.
