Perfect for Printing Complex Photographs

Direct To Garment printing is an innovative way to print on garments.  Think of the Direct To Garment printer as a giant inkjet printer that can print high resolution images full of colors and details on fabric. It is perfect for printing photographs onto garments.  The image is sent directly from the computer program to the printer. The ink is water based, creating a soft feel to the finished garment.  The durability of Direct To Garment printing is equal to screen printing.

No Limitations To What You Can Create

Direct To Garment printing is one of several methods we use on garments and does not require the vector art that is necessary for crisp screen printing.  The only limitations are the material of the garment. Direct To Garment printing is most successful on ring spun 100% cotton garments. We can print any image, but the higher the resolution, the higher quality of the finished print. PNG files-with transparent backgrounds-work the best and require the least amount of preparation for printing.

Print A Complex Design With Minimal Set Up Costs

The beauty of Direct To Garment printing, as opposed to screen printing, is there are minimal setup costs for an image being digitally printed, as there is no need for screen preparation or separation of colors to individual screens.  It may be more costly per garment, but no setup costs make it good for smaller runs of 1-50 shirts.

High Quality Products With Fast Turn Around

The advantages of Direct To Garment printing is fast turnaround times, no minimums, and the ability to provide an image in several sizes without additional setup costs. It is a good choice when one shirt or a sample shirt is needed, or when a multi color image is needed on just a few shirts. When artwork is a high resolution image containing many colors, details, and gradations Direct To Garment printing is the ideal choice.
