Tips for Choosing a Print Shop in Columbus

🎯

Know your method. Screen printing is cheapest for 50+ pieces. DTG is best for small runs or photo prints. Embroidery works great for logos on polos and hats. Sublimation is ideal for all-over prints on polyester.

📦

Ask about minimums. Many screen printers require 24-50 piece minimums. If you need fewer, look for shops offering DTG or heat transfer options with no minimums.

⏰

Plan for turnaround. Standard orders take 5-10 business days. If you need rush delivery, confirm availability and expect to pay 20-50% more.

💰

Get multiple quotes. Pricing can vary significantly between shops. Always get 2-3 quotes and compare not just price, but print quality, blank brands offered, and included services like design help.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does custom t-shirt printing cost in Columbus?

Pricing varies by method and quantity. Screen printing typically runs $8-$15 per shirt for bulk orders (50+), while DTG printing for small runs is $15-$25 per shirt. Embroidery usually costs $5-$15 per item depending on stitch count. Get quotes from multiple shops to compare.

What's the difference between screen printing and DTG?

Screen printing uses stencils and ink pressed through mesh — it's cheaper for large orders (50+ pieces) and produces vibrant, durable prints. DTG (Direct-to-Garment) prints directly onto fabric like an inkjet printer — better for small runs, complex designs, and photo-quality prints, but costs more per piece.

How long does a custom print order take in Columbus?

Most print shops in Columbus have a turnaround of 5-10 business days for standard orders. Rush orders (2-3 days) are usually available for an extra fee. Screen printing large orders may take longer than DTG or embroidery. Always confirm the timeline before placing your order.

What should I look for when choosing a print shop?

Check Google reviews, ask about their printing methods (screen print, DTG, embroidery, sublimation), request samples if possible, and compare pricing for your specific quantity. Also ask about minimum order quantities — some shops require 24-50 piece minimums for screen printing.
