Also referred to as Digital, DTG and inkjet-to-garment printing, direct to garment printing is the printing of digital images from a computer onto a shirt or other garment through the use of an inkjet printer.  While the name may seem vague, the advantages, disadvantages and ideal uses for DTG are quite specific. Read on to see how it works and whether your project is right for DTG.

​

Benefits of DTG:

• No setup costs

• Allows for small orders to be printed at a reasonable price

• Can print extremely detailed images

• Does not charge by the color, making full-color printing affordable

• Ink binds directly to fibers so it feels more like it's part of the fabric

Printing Jobs DTG Is Used For:

• Low quantities

• Detailed designs with gradients, shading, or many colors

​

Garment Guidelines & Apparel Suggestions

• For best results, we recommend 100% Cotton Garments of any color.

• White garments can be made of blends, or 100% Polyester.

• No garment can be treated with a stain resistant/waterproofing chemical. Avoid products with a rib fabric, as fabric weave will affect print detail.
