DTG and DTF Printing for Emma: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Emma crews order printed in full color gear from us because the numbers are public and the process is simple: free design help, a written proof within 24 hours, and delivery to any Emma address in 5 to 7 business days.
All 1.1 square miles of Emma sit inside our normal delivery map, tracked door to door. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Woodfin, NC (3 mi), Asheville, NC (3 mi), Biltmore Forest, NC (6 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is Fort Jackson, roughly 144 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Emma counted against your roster.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of North Carolina mixes Emma crews with neighbors like Woodfin, 3 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Small batches derisk merch: print ten, sell ten, then commit big. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Emma customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Emma customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Every order includes the design team. They rescue low-resolution logos, invent art from plain descriptions, and keep insignia and period typography accurate when the concept demands it. Twenty-four hours after you send the idea, the proof is in your inbox; as many revisions as it takes come free, and your written sign-off is what starts the presses.
Or open the Design Lab and lay the design out yourself, priced in real time on the exact blank.
Budget planning for Emma customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 20 | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 25 | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| Pack of 50 | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| Pack of 100 | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Add-on pricing is deliberately boring: back print per the table (later $3, then $2), oversize front $3 or $2 by volume, extended sizes $6 or $4 by volume. That is the complete list, and the Design Lab computes it live before any quote is written.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
Within 24 hours you have a proof in your inbox, drawn to size, on the garment and color you picked. Revisions are unlimited and free.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
Production and shipping run 5 to 7 business days standard. Rush options exist and get quoted honestly against your date.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
Delivery to Emma addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
Before sealing, every carton is counted against the size roster, and tracking goes out the same day. Anything short or damaged gets replaced at our cost on an expedited timeline.
Count 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, production included. Tighter date? Ask about rush and you get a straight answer before paying.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
Large runs are the core business: hundreds of pieces, mixed sizes, multiple colors, one named contact who owns it from first proof to the delivery scan.
Simple math: 2XL and up cost $6 more per piece on small orders and $4 more per piece from 25 pieces. No other size fees exist, and the Design Lab totals it live.
Custom work does not come back: due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. The protection is up front instead, a free proof that must be approved in writing before anything prints, so check sizing and art carefully at that stage.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your Emma crew begin at 10, the per piece price falls as the count climbs, and shipping goes free at 100.
