DTG is a digital printing process; colors in your design may not always match exactly to the final printed product. Unfortunately, pantone color matching is not available.
*Dark Garment is considered to be any garment that requires white ink to be printed either in the design or as an underbase
**Quotes are based on artwork; therefore final artwork is needed to quote and larger jobs.

Contract Options Available

Are you a broker, screen print shop, or clothing designer? We have wholesale business account options available please email DTG@4inkworks.com for more details. 
Explanation of price list:
To calculate the square inches of your design, measure the height and width of your design and multiply the two numbers. Ex. A design with a height of 8” 
and a width of 10”, the square inches would be 80”. The average left chest logo is 4”x4” = 16sq in.

1st Print Location

Every garment is charged the first location print price for at least one imprint; if there is only one imprint then that will be your primary pricing.
