screenprinting
Screenprinting is our specialty! The owner of The Inkwell has been in the screenprinting industry since 1996. The Inkwell Press was officially opened in 2007, and has been building its business on a reputation for high-quality printing that meets the deadline. We can assist with brand development and design, retail merch, art projects, corporate promotion, and event merchandising. Aside from t-shirts, tank tops and hoodies, we also print tote bags, posters, pants and more. The easiest way to get a quick quote is to email us your design and give us an idea of how many pieces you want printed. Include the brand and style # you would prefer, or one of our sales reps can make recommendations for you. We print the traditional way: with screens, squeegees and ink, for long-lasting vibrant colors or soft-hand vintage appeal. You tell us what you like and we’ll cater to your style.

Pricing is determined by 3 main factors:

I. QUANTITY

- The minimum order is 24 pcs per design. Designs that are 4 or more colors have a minimum order of 48pcs.

- Price breaks are at 48, 72, 96, 144, 288, 576 etc... (per design)

- Feel free to mix and match any sizes, styles and colors in your order. XXL size and + cost more because of a wholesale price increase from our distributors.

II. DESIGN

- Screen setup fees are $15 each per color. We DO NOT keep screens. We recycle and reuse our screens, but we do keep artwork on file.

- The number of locations printed are a cost factor. For example, FRONT, BACK, SLEEVE, INSIDE RE-LABEL. (private label)

- COLORWAYS - You can change the color of your garment as much as you want, but there is a cost associated with an INK CHANGE.

- If you do not have a design we can design something for you. If you are providing a design, please supply a 300dpi jpg or psd file, or an AI / PDF vector file. If you do not have high-res artwork, we can enhance or re-create your art for a fee. For design inquiries please email us at:

III. GARMENT (BRANDS)

- The garment style and brand you choose will effect your pricing. Whether it’s 100% cotton, polyester or tri-blend, we can get you the feel you are looking for. The list below is some of our more popular brands. We have access to most brands, so if you have something else in mind, just ask, or you can supply your own garments.
