Printing Questions
What is the least expensive t-shirt?
T-ShirtPros is offering a white, 100% cotton, 5.5 oz. t-shirt with a one-color imprint, one print location (ie., front or back). With the minimum 24-piece order, the cost for the shirt and printing is only $6.22 each (sizes S-XL). An order of 12,000 shirts will cost only $2.61 each (sizes S-XL).
What affects the price of garments?
Your price is affected by: the quantity, quality, and color of garments you select; the number of ink colors used in your artwork; and the number of print locations on the garments.
Can I combine different colors of garments for my order?
Yes, most artwork will print well on different shirt colors. Mix colors all you want. When we review your art we’ll notify you if there’s a potential problem, and help you find the solution. Remember, no surprises…you always approve our work!
Can I combine different styles of garments for my order?
Yes, you may combine any number of styles to get the quantity price break. For example, order 24 t-shirts, 24 tank tops and 24 sweat shirts and receive the 72 piece price for all garments, as long as all garments receive the same print (same image size on all garments). The only exception is for hats. Hats must be ordered separately because they require different screens and use a dedicated hat press.
What are your quantity price breaks?
- 24-47
- 48-71
- 72-143
- 144-299
- 300-599
- 600-1,199
- 1,200-2,999
- 3,000-5,999
- 6,000-11,999
Remember, to receive quantity discounts, all pieces must be imprinted with the same artwork and artwork size.
Do you have specialty inks?
Yes, we have fluorescent colors as well as puff, shimmer, metallic inks and foil. We also match Pantone colors.
What is the largest print area?
We can print to a maximum of 16″ wide by 19″ tall
How large should my logo be?
There are no set standards. This is art and it is all very subjective. We recommend that you print your image onto paper in a number of different sizes. For example, print your image at 6″, 8″ and 10″ wide. Place the images one at a time in the location on your garment where you want it to print. Use a live body rather than laying it flat on a table, so you’ll see how the shirt looks as someone wears it. Talk to the others in your group and decide on an image size.
Do you match Pantone colors?
Yes, we will mix your Pantone color for a nominal fee of $18.
Does black count as an ink color?
Yes, count black as well as white when figuring the number of ink colors in your design.
Can I print a color photograph?
Yes, but as it involves slightly more sophisticated technology, there is a different pricing structure and minimum quantity order. Do not hesitate to call or email if you have questions.
How many ink colors can you print?
We print up to 10 spot colors. You may use 1 – 8 ink colors per image for orders with quantities up to 12,000. Your order must be 72 or more garments to print 9 – 10 ink colors.
