Custom printing involves a little complex process compared to the regular e-commerce business. In addition to the conventional steps followed in the online business, you add a custom printing set-up with product design software. That can be costly and needs medium to heavy investment with space to set-up the print machinery. Screen printing has been a popular choice among custom printers. Although, it is evident that it requires huge capital investment and a place for setup.

Direct-to-garment printing is one of the most preferred print methods in the custom printing industry. The improvement in technology has not only upgraded the garments but also equipment that makes the decorating process easier and accurate as per the artwork specifications. However, larger industrial machines are available for longer runs, and many shops use several of these machines to exclusively mass-produce DTG garments.
