How the Screen Printing Process Works
Ordering screen printed apparel is simple. Here is what to expect from your first message to your finished order.
Send your project details
Share your idea, artwork, quantity, apparel type, size list, print locations, and deadline. We will review the details and help recommend the best apparel and print setup.
Receive a quote and proof
You will get a quote and digital proof through our customer portal. Review the design, placement, colors, garment details, sizes, and quantities before anything goes into production.
Approve and we handle the rest
Once the proof is approved, your order moves into production. Most orders are completed within 10–14 days after approval, depending on order size, garment availability, and season.
Rush Screen Printing Available
Rush orders may be available depending on order details, current production schedule, garment availability, artwork readiness, and the deadline.
Standard rush turnaround is typically 3–5 business days when the order allows. JCA also carries stock of standard t-shirts, crewnecks, and hoodies in basic colors, which may help with quick-turn or same-day needs depending on current inventory.
