"I found Precision Graphics and spoke to Julie. I immediately sensed the difference in her customer service. They took care of my order and completed it faster than promised. I highly recommend Precision Graphics if you are looking for branded products done right."
★★★★★
"We used another company for our uniforms and swag before we found Precision Graphics but they were always making mistakes. We gave PG a shot at our business and they won us over. Their timelines are reasonable and they never say they can do something they will not follow through with."

"Arizona Precision Graphics did an excellent job with my custom order. My design was complicated and I had a strict deadline, but I received the items with time to spare. The staff was available to answer all my questions via phone and email."
Screen printing t-shirts near you: quick answers
How much does screen printing t-shirts cost near me in Tempe?
Start with the blank: the 34 tees on this page run $5.55 to $21.73 each before ink, and the Port and Company PC54 most crews order is $5.55. The print is priced by the number of ink colors, the number of print locations and the quantity, so a one-color front on 24 tees costs far less per shirt than a four-color front and back on 12. Send the art and a count through the quote form and you get an exact per-shirt price, usually the same business day.
What is the minimum order for screen printed shirts?
12 pieces per design, because each color is burned to its own screen and set up on press. Under 12, or for full-color art, we print the same shirts with DTF transfers in the same building with no minimum, so a run of 6 is still a real order here; the quote tells you which method we recommend.
How fast can I get custom screen printed t-shirts?
Blanks we stock arrive from the distributor in 2 to 5 business days and printing is typically finished 7 to 10 business days after you approve the digital proof. Rush production is available for events, tournaments and company dates; tell us the day you need them in the quote and we confirm before you commit.
Where is the screen printing shop, and can I walk in?
1715 W 4th St, Tempe, AZ 85281, off Loop 202 and I-10, minutes from ASU and Sky Harbor. Walk in Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM: feel printed samples on the rack, pick a blank, show us the art on your phone and leave with a price. Park in front.
Do you ship, or do I have to pick up in Tempe?
Either. Most Phoenix-metro customers approve the proof by email and pick up or get delivery; we also ship finished orders anywhere in Arizona and the US. Nobody has to drive to Tempe to order, but the showroom is open if you want to.
Can you screen print shirts I bring in?
Usually. Bring the tees in and we check the fabric and the print area; cotton and cotton blends print best, and polyester needs a low-bleed ink we also run. We cannot replace a customer-supplied shirt if a print fails, which is rare, so for larger runs we recommend our blanks.
What file do you need for the design?
Vector art (AI, EPS, PDF) with the ink colors named is ideal. A clean, high-resolution PNG or JPG works for most logos, and our art department separates colors and builds the screens; Pantone matching is included in the proof.
Screen printing or DTF for my t-shirts?
Screen printing for 1 to 4 ink colors in quantity, where the per-shirt price is lowest and the ink sits in the fabric with the softest hand. DTF for full-color or photographic art, small runs under 12 and mixed garments. Both run here, so the same order can use both and ship together.
Is the printing done in your shop?
Yes. Screens are burned, pressed and cured on our own equipment at 1715 W 4th St, next to the embroidery and DTF floors. Nothing is brokered out, which is why reorders match and rush dates hold.
