If you're only going to make a very small amount of them, then you can buy heat transfer paper at your local office store, which works by printing the image you want on to a wax sheet and then you iron that on to the actual shirt. Doing that requires extremely little setup, but the area that you ironed on will be stiff (you usually want to AT LEAST trim off areas not part of the image) and won't hold up well in the wash at all.

If you're going to make a larger amount, then it's time to start considering screen printing, which is roughly the "standard" way of making a graphic tee:

Keep in mind that for every color you want on the shirt, you need to make an additional screen.
