| IMAGES ELITE has invested in the production equipment that is most capable of producing the highest quality garment on the market. Our digital printing technique allows our customers creative freedom with their designs- there is no limit to the type of design or to the number of colors used. We offer our high quality digital prints which allows us to produce full color high resolution prints, including photo quality images, directly onto textile fabrics using the industry-leading direct to garment digital printer. Prints have "soft hand" instead of the thick plastic feel of a traditional plastisol screen ink. The water-based inks have been thoroughly wash tested and are proven to hold up to years of use, and are also better for the environment. Have Questions or need help deciding, please email us Direct to Garment FAQ's Do I have to order a minimum quantity of shirts for Direct to Garment Printing (DTG)? NO, that’s the beauty of DTG! This process allows us to print one or more pieces on demand! Keep in mind that digital garment printing is optimized for short to medium run, full color printed garments. This means dark orders of 1-144 pieces, and light garment orders of 1-172 pieces. Is there a set-up fee for your Direct to Garment Printing (DTG) printing process? NO, the process uses direct inkjet technology. With traditional screen printing there are setup fees for screens and press make ready? Since there are no screens or make ready involved in the DTG process, we don’t need to charge for it!. What kind of print quality does a Direct to Garment Printing (DTG) produce? The quality of a DTG print is amazing! Since the print process uses CMYK inks, the color gamut is almost limitless. The print itself is very vibrant and has great detail. Direct to Garment Printing can produce high quality gradients and photos because it is a continuous tone process. There are no halftone dots or screens used to simulate shades of color. Because of this, blends and photos are smooth and detailed in appearance. Screen printing would use a line screen resolution up to about 72 dpi. With DTG printing we can produce prints using 1440 dpi resolution! What types of files do you accept for Direct to Garment Printing (DTG) ? The best file format is a vector based .eps, .ai, file.
