SCREEN PRINTING BASICS

Can I Print 1 Shirt or Do I Need to Screen Print in Bulk?

Screen printing is designed to be printed in bulk. The printing part of the process is actually the fastest part. All the costs and time are in the setup. This is why the cost per shirt goes down the more you print per design.

A lot of work goes into getting a shirt ready to print and requires almost every employee at the company. Artwork has to be mocked up and films have to be created. After this, the screens department converts the film into screens. Next, the printers setup the presses to run the shirts. It takes a good bit of time to setup a press to run shirts.

Because of this we cannot print 1 shirt at a time as it would easily cost $150+ to do. The smallest order of shirts we will do is 25 of the same design. Our service area includes Indio, Palm Desert, Palm Springs, Cathedral City, La Quinta, Desert Hot Springs, Indian Wells, and the greater Coachella Valley. Call Today 760-469-4055!

Size of the Artwork

If you use the same size graphic on different sized shirts, the graphic stays the same size across all shirt sizes. We can scale the image down to make a smaller graphic for the smaller shirts but another screen will need to be made and that is added expense. So if at all possible make your graphic size work for all your garment sizes. Most clients find a way to do this

Standard Artwork Placements

This is the fun part. A little creative thinking goes a long way. Placement makes all the difference between a cool shirt or a future shop towel. Typical placement is a crest or logo on the left front chest and large graphic on the back. Or one sleeve and back, and the most common placement, right dead square center chest as big as we can print it!
