Questions
Screen Printing FAQs
Is there a minimum quantity?
Screen printing suits runs rather than single pieces because each color needs a screen. Minimums by color count are stated on your quote.
Can you print photos or gradients?
Screen printing works best with solid spot colors. For photographic artwork we will recommend an alternative on the quote.
Will the colors match my brand?
Send Pantone references and we mix to match as closely as the ink system allows. The proof shows the intended colors.
