DTG and DTF Printing for Medill: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Full color starting at just 10 pieces. Photographs, gradients, and detailed art on ten shirts or one hundred, on cotton, blends, and polyester. For Medill, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
From one end of Medill to the other, 0.8 square miles, the shipping promise does not change: 5 to 7 business days, tracked. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Kahoka, MO (3 mi), Luray, MO (6 mi), Revere, MO (7 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. For the military community, Rock Island Arsenal sits about 95 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Medill counted against your roster.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Missouri mixes Medill crews with neighbors like Kahoka, 3 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Photo shirts reproduce the actual photograph, and memorial timelines get priority. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Small batches derisk merch: print ten, sell ten, then commit big. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Medill customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
The Design Lab puts your art on the real garment, takes your size counts, and totals the whole order, shipping included, without asking who you are.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Medill customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. 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. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Half the orders we take begin as a phone photo of a sketch, an old shirt, or a sentence describing the idea. A designer turns that into print-ready vector art at no charge, sends the proof inside 24 hours, and revises it until you sign off in writing. Nothing is produced before that signature, which is why what shows up matches what you expected.
Prefer hands-on? Build the design yourself in the Design Lab on real product photos, with the running price on screen while you work.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Medill customers see.

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.
Twenty-four hours gets you a designer-built proof on the exact blank you chose. Iterate freely until it is right.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
Production plus shipping to Medill addresses runs 5 to 7 business days standard, tracked the whole way. Shipping is free at 100 pieces and flat rated below that, exactly as shown in the pricing table above.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
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.
Yes. Runs in the hundreds of pieces with mixed sizes and colors are our normal work, managed by one point of contact from proof to delivery.
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.
There are no returns on custom orders; once printed, the work is final. That is exactly why production never starts without your written approval of a free proof, and why the size roster deserves a second look before you submit.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Medill crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
