Smart textile has the ability to recognize and respond to stimuli from the environment, such as electric and magnetic field, mechanical load, temperature, irradiation or chemical vapors. With the development of the textile industry, as well as technology in general, there is an increasing use of printing in the production of contemporary textile materials, which at the same time retain their positive traditional properties, and also have additional functionalities. There are several technologies that can be used for printing of functional materials on textile substrates, but the most commonly used are sheet-based InkJet and screen printing. The functional materials that are primarily used in this field are conductive inks, such as metal nanoparticles inks, organometallic inks, conductive polymers, as well as inks with graphene and carbon nanotubes. This paper reviews the potentials and challenges in printing of functional materials on textiles. The challenges exist in the complex interaction between the liquid ink and porous substrate, and the development in the field of smart textile printing largely depends on the development in the field of functional inks.
