DTG SERVICES
Looking for highly detailed full color designs imprinted at an affordable price? Our DTG printer will do just that! Screen printing t-shirts or other garments is great when you have a large quantity of garments to imprint, but printing a full color design for only a few garments is usually unheard of.

Artwork requirements
Unless you are looking for a t-shirt or other garment to commemorate a memory, and you only have an ok quality photo, you will want a high resolution image. The higher the resolution, the larger the print. For a novice customer, this means the more you can zoom in on your artwork before it becomes blurry, the better chance your image will print clearly.
A higher resolution image is usually created by a graphic artist and in most cases will be a vector graphic. Vector graphics are by far the best choice as you will not lose any details, no matter how large you make it. Vector images are made from points, rather than groupings of colored pixels, allowing practically any resolution.
What images not to use! Web images, unless stated differently are usually compressed to 72 dpi and have been converted to RGB. The best color choice for DTG is using CMYK vs RGB. CMYK images are used when publishing and in most color imprinting processes, while RGB is used on the web for digital viewing on displays like tv's, monitors, phones and tablets.
You want images at least 300 dpi and in CMYK if you do not have a vector image. Allowable file types...
- AI
- EPS
- JPEG
- TIFF
- PNG
- PSD
- PCT
