Helpful Tips for Better Prints
Upload files at the exact print size whenever possible
Use 150 DPI resolution for sharp results
Create files in sRGB color profile
Avoid adding extra padding or empty space around your design
Very small text or thin lines may not print clearly
What you upload is what gets printed, low-quality files will result in low-quality prints.
How to Get the Best Print Results
Avoid semi-transparent designs: Semi-transparent or low-opacity elements don’t print well. Use solid colors instead, or recreate the effect using halftones.
Use high-resolution files (150 DPI): Simply changing the resolution number won’t improve quality. If your design is blurry, it will have to be recreated at a higher resolution.
Use transparency carefully on dark garments: Black ink can appear gray on black fabric due to the white base layer used in printing. Leave black areas transparent so the fabric shows through naturally.
Avoid designs with perfect borders: Tight borders can warp slightly during printing. Leave some space around your design for best results.
DTG Printing Disclaimers
No white ink on white garments.
Light colors on bright garments (e.g., Red, Maroon) may appear slightly tinted due to fabric dye and the printing process.
Hard lines or symmetrical shapes may have minor variations. Minimal shrinkage per print location can occur depending on the material.
Any minor discoloration or marks around the print usually disappear after the first wash.
Some youth/women garments may have inside labels positioned slightly lower than usual.
Human involvement can cause slight variations in print placement.

Method
DTG is ideal for artwork, illustrations, custom designs, and photo prints where detail and softness matter.
Print feel
The print feels soft to the touch because the ink absorbs directly into the fabric, blending naturally with the garment.
Design complexity
DTG handles complex designs very well, including gradients, shading, and high-resolution images.
Durability
DTG prints offer good durability when cared for properly, such as washing inside out in cold water.
Breathability
DTG maintains high breathability since the ink becomes part of the fabric rather than sitting on top.
Fabric compatibility
DTG works best on cotton or cotton-blend fabrics, where the ink bonds effectively with the fibers.
Color finish
DTG produces a natural, matte finish that looks subtle and integrated into the fabric.

DTG is ideal for artwork, illustrations, custom designs, and photo prints where detail and softness matter.

Method
DT Flex works best for bold logos, text, numbers, and simple graphics where clarity and impact are key.
Print feel
The print has a smooth, slightly raised feel due to the vinyl layer applied on top of the fabric.
Design complexity
DTFlex is ideal for solid colors and sharp lines but is not recommended for gradients or photo-style designs.
Durability
DTFlex prints are extremely durable and designed to last through frequent washes without cracking or peeling.
Breathability
DTFlex has medium breathability because the vinyl layer slightly reduces airflow in the printed area.
Fabric compatibility
DTFlex works on most fabric types, including cotton, polyester, and blended materials.
Color finish
DTFlex delivers bright, high-contrast colors that stand out clearly and stay visually bold over time.
Ideal for
DTFlex is ideal for branding, uniforms, logos, and number prints that need maximum visibility and durability.
