DIGITAL PRINTING MAKES YOUR SHIRT IDEA YOU HAVE ALWAYS WANTED INTO A REALITY!
Digital Printing utilizes the latest technology to provide a solution to printing with an almost unlimited number of colors in the design. For many customers, this is a great way to get full color prints on just a few shirts. Screen printing an order that size with a large number of colors had previously been cost-prohibitive before the advent of Digital Printing. Also referred to as Direct-To Garment, the process works much like an traditional inkjet computer printer, but for apparel!
- Yields high quality, durable images.
- Print on any color garment, recommended for dark prints on light color garments for best result.
- Price: cost per shirt depends on quantity, more you buy less you pay. Often cheaper than screen printing for multiple-color images on small runs.
- Print Photos, Graphic Effects, and highly detailed images on shirts.
Digital printing is a much newer process that involves your artwork being processed by a computer, and then printed directly onto the surface of your product. Digital printing is not a transfer - the ink is directly adhered to the fabric of your custom shirt. The fact that the design is processed and printed digitally allows for a quantity of one, since there are no screens or physical setup. Digital printing is best used for items that require large amounts of detail and/or print colors, customers that require water based ink, and for orders of a smaller quantity. As the ink is applied thinner (to achieve such detail), digital printing is best used on lighter colored shirts to allow the design to shine through.
