Straight to the point and gave me the answers I needed without watching a 20 minute video. Thanks!
You have given clear and compelling information. Thank you.
you're welcome, glad you found the info useful :)
@@Teemillstore where can I get a digital print to purchase?
I've ordered a t-shirt from you guys, the shirt colours are amazing. My only concern is, will the ink crack or fade e.g yellows and red it's printed on black t shirt. I notice the red doesn't stand out much. I just want to know if I wash the shirt inside out will the ink stay on. I want it to last.
Quick and simple video that shows the process, thank you
Finally I get it!
this video was perfect ! You saved me and everyone else hours of time and its explained so SO WELL, THANKS FOR THIS
Thank you soooo much. You made it soooo clear. I'm a start up. Now I know what to choose
Really clear guidance - many thanks.
Perfect! Just what I needed to know and I'm going with the digital. Thanks
You have given clear information, Really useful. Thank you
I literally have no complaints lol I wish everyone explained things the way you did this.. I’d know everything lol
Honeslty saved my time! Thanks 🙏
This was extremely helpful - thanks a lot!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for that very useful info 🙏🏽👍🏽
Cool video! I was wondering ~
Which one lasts longer after several washing cycles?
And as far as the tangible texture of the print goes, how different do the prints feel when you touch? Thanks! )
thanks for the clarification
Very helpful. Thank you.
What method would you choose for very detailed artwork?
great resource
Thanks alot bro your video really answered alot of my questions
No problem 👍
Super helpful thank you
Great video
Which one starts to fade in the wash?
Well made video! 👍👍
HI, what is the make and model of the DTG you have ? "RAPANUI"
Which one is more durable and is harder wearing
very informative. thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Very understanding
I just wanted to clarify from a consumer perspective, isn't screenprinting superior to digital? In my experience, screenprinted clothing washes and ages well, for years, whereas digital really doesn't. At least that's my experience; would you agree?
Where can I buy one of those digital printing machine that are in the background?
What kind of dtg printer do you use?
Which one is better quality and will last longer?
Thanks for this informative video. I am looking to understand this a bit better. Is digital printing different from the rubber kind of heat transfer print? I ask this with respect to longevity and print quality of digital print. I know that the heat transfer or rubber-y material starts to peel or crack in a few washes. Will digital not peel or crack in the same way? and how many washes is it recommended to last for?
Digital print can still crack/peel/degrade if not looked after properly or the washing guides on the label are not followed. In general the lifecycle of a digital print is pretty comparable to screenprint
Every video on UA-cam has diff info regarding to this topic :( i am confused which one to go for.
What's the lowest cost digital printer for tees you would recommend? Does digital work on more complex materials like nylon webbing (for belts and such)?
we only use organic cotton. There are "cheap" printers but our customers expect retail quality so we're not that familiar with the budget end of the market machine wise, sorry
What about the design for digital?
Are the images in the screen created by hand or is there a machine (ie CnC) involved?
Hey for screen print lots of manual process involved, is a skilled job. Digital there's no screen it's automated, which is how we can do 1 at a time
What about digital printing with different materials like, ringspun, polyester, try blends, 50/50?
we only use natural materials because of our work on sustainability and circular economy. You can read more at teemill.com/remill
Hi there, does digital work on Polyester or Spandex?
Nah we use only 100% organic cotton
Hi, which process produces designs more durable/long-lasting on shirts?
Both same, at their best
Can you advise on the best fabric blends for screen printing and digital printing? And, what’s more durable screen or digital?
We use 100% organic cotton
Great
What are the advantages and disadvantages of printing by hand and by machine?
Sore hands vs. lower prices and better quality / consistency when you have the right machinery
How would I digitally print on a mousepad? I am considering making a mousepad company but don't know where to start.
hey there's loads of products available inside Teemill, and we're adding more regularly.
very nice, digital clothing
Does Screen Printing crack in over time use? As same with digital printing hope I can get answers..😊😊😊😅
how's the durability and feel for both? does digital printing leave thin layer on fabric just like heat transfer!!
Durability is pretty like for like across the two styles of printing, as long as wash care label followed they should last just like any good quality product. Slight difference in feel if you get really specific, DTG print can feel a little more "textured".
Which one will the ink last longer?
Lifecycle should be pretty much the same on either if the product is taken care of and wash care instructions followed :)
you stated Silk Screen Quality is 2nd to none. So the Quality of the Digital Print? How many washes before the shirt no longer has the graphic you paid for on it?
If the wash care instructions are followed the lifespan of the print and the product are pretty much like-for-like
Is digital printing and dtg printing same?
yep :)
Can you do digital printing on a Dickies work shirt?
We only print our own products at the moment, due our our sustainability commitments
Is Rapanui your main client?
hey, the team at Rapanui built the Teemill platform :)
How does digital print cope with washing. what's the life expectancy of the print?
Hey Simon, on paper and when washed according to the washcare instructions they should be equivalent. We've got digital tees that are many years old. In our experience we've found that screenprint is the most resistant to the widest variety of detergents and wash regimes outside of the advice on the label, whilst we've also found that digital prints are far easier for us to work with in our recycling program and have far more potential in terms of sustainability. If you want something for say, workwear at a busy restaurant screenprint is the way to go right now. For consumer products digital is proven.
Is this the same as DTG?
Idk
Does ur company do print on demand?
Yes
Can u send me a website. I’ma try n get a pod started

Best way to speak to the team is by emailing us at hello@teemill.com
Please I am an advocate to screen printing because these digital printing press are very expensive and how many young enterprising designers can afford these digital stuffs? We here in Africa are to be pitied most, because in the future digital presses will become a monopoly business for the rich gurus out there and the hard working graphic designer who spent a lot of time to train will be a slave to those gurus. If digital, then the market price of these digital stuffs should be a wide gab and not to try and compete with screen printing enterprises. Thanks.
Tech creates change. Good or bad is up to you. For example, with Teemill you could build a brand in Africa and sell into the UK. You can't do that with a screenprint carousel :)
Which ll wash away soon
FREE!?!
Teemill is a store builder and print on demand service that is free to set up and run, yes. teemill.com
Can you advertise products on my behalf, or do you guys only do the printing? How do I set up my own advertisements on tellicomunication software ? Cheers
