CMYK Screen Printing

CMYK Screen Printing

In the world of custom garment decoration there are two main camps when it comes to printing: silk screen printing versus dye sublimation printing.  Each of these methods carry their own advantages and disadvantages, which matter depending on the design you wish to apply to your garments.  For example, with screen printing, you can’t achieve as much color expression from your prints as with dye sublimation printing.  But there is such a thing as CMYK screen printing that can get a much wider expression of colors out of your silk screened prints.

CMYK Screen Printing

Typically in screen printing, the artwork is separated into layers of color, one color per layer.  Each layer is then burned into a silk screen so it can later have colored ink drawn across it to produce an image.  If you have a logo with two colors, this process is quick and easy.  CMYK screen printing will come into play when you have much more colors than a few solid chunks.  CMYK screen printing works by building the desired color through applying different values of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black ink.  This process has been in use for many years in various forms of artistic image rendering and it certainly works.

All-Over Printed Shirt

All-Over Printed Shirt

Have you heard of oversized screen printing in the past and wondered what its uses are?  Well, it’s a quite simple concept; it is screen printing using silk screens and equipment that are suited for oversized jobs.  What classifies as an ‘oversized job’?  Generally oversized printing refers to anything that exceeds the typical artwork dimensions you would find on the chest or back of a T shirt.  If you want something like an all-over printed shirt, you will need to use oversized screen printing.

All-Over Printed Shirt

The first step towards a custom all-over printed shirt must be finding the right printing company.  Although oversized printing is very commonly used, not every printing company you encounter will be prepared to print at that size.  The investment into making sure you have the proportional equipment and the necessary resources and training is not feasible for every professional printer.  Luckily, you can get you all-over printed shirt right here at AMBRO Manufacturing.  We’ve been in the customized apparel business for over 30 years so we’ve got plenty of tricks up our sleeve when it comes to applying artwork, even if it is jumbo sized!

A custom all-over printed shirt isn’t the only thing you can do with oversized printing of course.  Jumbo silk screen printing can be used for printing all the way down a pant leg or across the back and shoulders of a game day jersey.  We’ve also done plenty of blanket prints of throw blankets and stadium blankets.  So you can start with an all-over printed shirt and grow outwards from there.  Our team is always here to answer any questions you might have and we can guide you through the process to your completed custom goods.  You can contact us to place an order, or to find out more about our company and services, by email or by calling us at (908) 806-8337.
