What is screen printing?

The classic way to print a shirt

Screen printing pushes ink through a fine mesh screen onto the fabric, one color at a time. The result is thick, vivid color that's bonded into the garment — the look and feel most people picture when they think of a printed tee.

Because each color gets its own screen, screen printing is at its best when you're printing the same design on a larger number of pieces. The more you print, the lower the price per shirt.

  • Bold, vibrant, long-lasting color
  • Most cost-effective on larger orders
  • Ideal for 1–4 color logos and designs
  • Classic feel on tees, hoodies, and more

FAQ

Screen printing questions

How many colors can you screen print?

Each ink color uses its own screen, so screen printing shines with designs of one to four solid colors. For full-color art or photos, DTF is often the better fit — we'll recommend the best option when we quote.

Why is screen printing cheaper on bigger orders?

Most of the work is in setup — preparing the art and making a screen for each color. Once that's done, each extra shirt prints quickly, so the setup cost is spread across more pieces.

Can you print on the front, back, and sleeves?

Yes. Just list every print location on the quote form. Each location is set up separately, so it's factored into your quote.

What file should I send for screen printing?

Vector artwork (AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG) gives the cleanest results. If you only have a JPG or PNG, send it anyway and we'll let you know what's possible.
