Why Choose DVS

Common questions
FAQ
What is the minimum order for screen printing?
Our minimum is 12 pieces per design. For smaller quantities, DTF printing has no minimums and no setup fees.
How many colors can my design have?
We print up to 8 spot colors per design. More colors means more screens and slightly higher setup cost, but per-unit price stays low at volume.
Can I mix sizes in my order?
Yes — you can order different sizes (S through 3XL) and they all count toward your quantity for pricing.
What is the difference between screen printing and DTF?
Screen printing is best for larger quantities (12+) with fewer colors. DTF is better for small runs, full color photos, and one-offs.
