There are, but sewing machines are cheaper than printing cloth. So they weave cloth or for cheaper use non woven fabric. Look at a fedex envelope = spun fibers flattened and heat sealed. Try to tear it = very strong. Make a small square of it and try to make it diamond shaped by diagonal stress = it will not move. You can make cloth by printing, but all intersections are bonded.
Printed cloth lacks the feel or hand of cloth. You can also change the vertical and horizontal weave to be differnt fibers for many varies end states.
After 20-30 years more evolution, cloth with good hand will emerge - it may be out there already?
