I guess this would cover printing? I have a few shirts that I can't wear owb because of printing.
Texas law says:
Sec. 46.035. UNLAWFUL CARRYING OF HANDGUN BY LICENSE HOLDER.

Text of subsection effective until January 01, 2016

(a) A license holder commits an offense if the license holder carries a handgun on or about the license holder's person under the authority of Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code, and intentionally displays the handgun in plain view of another person in a public place.

With apologies to Yoda, you can intentionally display or not intentionally display. There is no printing.
