Screen Printing in Boise & Meridian, Idaho

Screen printing pushes ink through a stencil one color at a time, which makes it the most cost-effective method for bulk orders of 24 shirts or more.

Typical pricing runs $6 to $12 per shirt, dropping to $6 to $9 per piece on runs of 50 or more. Most orders are ready in 5 to 7 business days, and same-day rush is available on in-stock blanks.

The Most Cost-Effective Way to Print Shirts in Bulk

Eagle Ridge Apparel runs automatic and manual screen printing presses with plastisol, water-based, and discharge inks for soft-hand prints that stand up to hundreds of washes. We mix our own Pantone-matched colors in-house, burn our own screens, and cure every print at temperature — so the print bonds to the fabric instead of sitting on top of it.

Screen printing is what you want when the math matters. The per-shirt price drops sharply as quantity climbs — a 100-piece run is dramatically cheaper per piece than a 12-piece order because the bulk of the cost is in the setup. For team t-shirts, event merch, fundraiser runs, and bulk corporate apparel, screen printing remains the most economical decoration method anywhere.

We print on t-shirts, hoodies, tanks, long-sleeves, sweatshirts, polos, and bandanas — front, back, sleeve, and pocket placements. From 1-color logos on a Gildan tee to 6-color full-back designs on retail-fit Bella+Canvas, every job gets the same attention to ink coverage, registration, and cure quality.

Pricing is based on color count, print location count, and total quantity. Single-color one-location runs are the most affordable; multi-color multi-location jobs cost more but still beat DTF and embroidery on bulk economics every time. We'll always give you an exact quote — color count, location count, blank cost, total — before you commit.

What We Can Screen Print

Why Choose Screen Printing

Screen printing is the workhorse of custom apparel for a reason. At quantity, nothing else comes close on per-piece cost. A 144-piece event tee run prints for a fraction of what the same job would cost in DTF or embroidery. For fundraisers, charity runs, family reunions, school spirit weeks, and any high-volume merchandise drop, screen printing is the only decoration method that makes the budget work.

The finished print is also the most durable surface decoration available. Properly cured plastisol bonds chemically with the fabric and stays vibrant for the full life of the shirt — hundreds of washes, no peeling, no cracking. Discharge and water-based inks soak into the fabric for a soft-hand vintage look that retail brands love.

Eagle Ridge Apparel treats every screen-printing order the same way whether it's 24 shirts or 2,400: your art gets prepped at proper sizing, your mockup gets reviewed before screens get burned, the first piece off the press gets inspected, and your finished garments get a quality check before they ship. That's the standard we hold ourselves to every time.

FAQ

Screen Printing Questions Answered

What file format do I need to send my art?
Any format works — we accept AI, EPS, SVG, PDF, PNG, and JPG. Vector formats (AI, EPS, SVG) give us the sharpest separations and are strongly preferred for multi-color jobs. If you only have a JPG or a hand sketch, send us what you have and we'll redraw or vectorize as needed — usually no extra charge for simple cleanup.
How much does custom screen printing cost?
Pricing depends on color count, print location count, and total quantity. A 1-color print on the front of a standard tee at 50 pieces runs around $6–$9 per piece all-in (blanks included). Multi-color jobs and second print locations add cost; bulk quantities cut it. We always give you an exact quote before you commit — no setup fees, no surprises.
Do you have a minimum order quantity?
We don't enforce a hard minimum, but screen printing is most economical at 24+ pieces because of screen setup time. Smaller runs (under 12 pieces) are often a better fit for DTF printing — soft hand, full color, no screen setup. If you're not sure which decoration method makes sense for your quantity, we'll point you to the right one.
How long does screen printing take?
Most screen-printing orders ship in 5–10 business days after mockup approval. Rush production (24–48 hours) is available on most jobs — call to confirm before placing a rush order. Peak periods (back-to-school, holiday) may run longer; we'll always quote a real timeline upfront.
Can I supply my own garments for screen printing?
Yes. We print on customer-supplied blanks regularly. Bring them to our Meridian shop or ship to 2700 E Lanark St, Meridian, ID 83642. We inspect supplied garments before printing to confirm fabric content is compatible with the ink type — synthetics need special inks, dark cotton blanks may need an underbase white layer. We'll flag anything before we print.
What inks do you use?
We run plastisol, water-based, and discharge inks. Plastisol is the workhorse — durable, vibrant, opaque enough for dark garments. Water-based and discharge inks give a softer hand and a vintage retail look, ideal for light-colored cotton blanks and brand-quality work. We also stock specialty inks: metallic, glow-in-the-dark, puff, and high-density. Tell us the look you want and we'll pick the right ink.
