What Is DTG Printing?
Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing is a process that applies water-based CMYK inks directly onto the fabric of a garment. Unlike traditional screen printing, DTG allows for smooth gradients, transparency effects, photorealistic imagery, and highly detailed artwork without the need for multiple screens or color separations.
DTG is ideal for:
• Full-color artwork
• Photorealistic images
• Complex illustrations
• Gradient effects and transparency
• Small to medium production runs
• Sampling and product testing
For the best print results, we recommend 100% cotton garments or high-quality cotton blends.
Why Choose Only Ohana Studios for DTG Printing?
Exceptional Print Quality
Our DTG process captures fine details, smooth color transitions, and vibrant imagery with remarkable accuracy, allowing your artwork to appear exactly as intended.
Soft-Hand Feel
Unlike many transfer-based methods, DTG inks are absorbed directly into the fabric, creating a soft, breathable print that maintains comfort while delivering long-lasting durability.
Perfect for Brand Development
DTG is an excellent option for brands looking to test designs, create samples, or produce smaller runs without committing to larger production quantities.
Eco-Conscious Production
We utilize water-based inks that are safer for the environment while producing vibrant, professional-quality results.

Because DTG requires minimal setup compared to traditional screen printing, it's an ideal solution for designs with multiple colors, intricate details, and frequent artwork changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is your turnaround time?
Standard DTG production is typically completed within 10–15 business days after artwork approval, invoice payment, and receipt of all required garments or materials.
Production timelines may vary depending on order size, garment availability, and additional services requested.
Do you offer samples?
Yes. We highly recommend ordering a sample before moving into larger production runs, especially for new designs, unique garment types, or color-sensitive artwork.
What is the minimum order quantity?
We offer flexible production options for growing brands and businesses. Contact our team for current minimum order requirements and project recommendations.
How does DTG compare to screen printing?
DTG excels at reproducing highly detailed artwork, gradients, and full-color images. Screen printing is often preferred for larger-volume orders and simpler designs with fewer colors.
Our team can help determine the best print method based on your artwork, quantity, and budget.
How accurate are DTG colors?
DTG uses a CMYK printing process that blends cyan, magenta, yellow, and black inks to produce a wide range of colors and gradients. For the most accurate results, we recommend submitting artwork in high-resolution files and reviewing a sample when color precision is critical.
How long do DTG prints last?
With proper care, DTG prints maintain excellent durability and vibrancy. We recommend washing garments inside out in cold water and air drying whenever possible to maximize print life.
