Frequently Asked Questions

Printing

Uploading your artwork

  • Your image does not need to be in vector format we can print raster images as well.
  • We highly recommend uploading an image with a minimum of 1500 x 1500 Pixels and a dpi of 72 or higher as the resolution and quality of your image directly affects the print quality.
  • Any file that has been uploaded through the app will be printed "as is"
  • Be sure to remove any backgrounds you do not wish to have in the print. If you do not wish to have a background remove the background and upload an image with transparency such as .PNG file.
  • Make sure you own the rights to any uploaded artwork. 
  • We offer a Vector Service to clean up your graphics and get them ready for the best print quality. Click the link here --> Vector Service
  • Color profiles should be in sRGB format for best results

Print methods

Printers Choice is selected by default. We will choose the recommended print method for your design and garment. You may select your print method in the web app under Print Methods after you've selected your garment for customization if the garment allows it.

DTG (Direct to Garment)

The shirt is prepped by being cleaned with a lint roller. Then placed in a pretreatment machine which sprays a bonding solution for the ink to adhere to the garment. It is then cured in an oven and pre pressed to flatten the fibers for a smooth printing surface. It is then printed with a Brother GTX Pro and placed back on the conveyor oven to cure the ink. For more information watch the following video.

*In short DTG (Direct to Garment) is good for almost every design but not every garment.

DTF (Direct to Film)

Your graphic is printed on a PTU film with the Brother GTX Pro then we cover the graphic in adhesive powder and cure the sheet in an oven. The graphic is then pressed to the garment, peeled, then pressed a second time to make sure it's properly cured into the fabric.

  • Please note this is NOT Vinyl. The durability is superior and the vibrancy is much stronger.

*In short DTF (Direct to Film) is good for almost every garment but not every design.

Backgrounds, removal, & blending

*It is always best to have your file prepared correctly before print. The quality of your graphic affects the quality of print.

  • If you are printing on a white garment, any pure white color in your artwork will not be printed because the garment you are printing on is white. We print DTG for all white 100% cotton garments always.
  • If you are printing on a black garment, any pure black color in your artwork will not be printed because the garment you are printing on is black. This applies to DTG (Direct to Garment) printing. For DTF (direct to Film) please prep the image or select our Vector Service for prep to have the best quality results. 
  • Be sure to remove any backgrounds you do not wish to have in the print. If you do not wish to have a background remove the background and upload an image with transparency in .PNG format.

Color Accuracy & File Prepping

For 100% color accuracy you need to screen print your order in bulk. It is impossible to achieve 100% accuracy with digital printing for DTG, DTF and Sublimation.

For a bulk screen print order please email us at info@printmeshirts.com and we will get a quote to you as soon as possible.

Here are all the videos on how to prep your file for the most accurate color results for the Brother GTX Pro. If you require assistance send your images through our Vector Service or email us at info@printmeshirts.com
