Q. Can you print on dark colored shirts? Do you print white ink?
A. Yes. We are able to print on all color fabrics.

Q. Can I have my logo embroidered and printed on the same shirt?
A. We are unable to embroider and print on the same apparel item. However, you can place an order with embroidered shirts and printed shirts.
Q. Why can't I order the same items for screen print that I can for embroidery?
A. Screen printing is a very specific process which requires apparel specially designed for direct to garment printing. While embroidery can be done on a large variety of materials, screen print can only be done on fabrics that are compatible with our ink and printing process. Some of our most popular items for embroidery will not work for screen printing due to the fabric content, texture and ornamentation such as buttons, seams, or zippers. You will find our complete line of items available for screen printing under our Printed Apparel categories.
