GT-541 Reference Guide: Tour to Printer Driver

*** Try Light-Color T-shirts ***

Media Color

 

Besides white T-shirts, with GT-541, you can also print on T-shirts that are lightly colored by the those in the color chart of Hanes� such as Natural, Ash, Graphite, Light Steel, Aquatic Blue, Sky, Daffodil yellow, Yellow, Heathered Blue, Ice Gray, Light Blue, Pale Pink, Sand, Lime, Moss, etc. Although you can print on T-shirts colored by Orange, Canary, Red, Kelly Green, and so on. Relatively dark and strong colors of the T-shirt will dominate the colors of the ink, so you may not be able to get satisfying printing quality. On the contrary, you will find another artwork when you print it in monotone, black and T-shirt color, or the gradation in the same colors as T-shirt. These artistic coloring will make the artwork in perspective. Try out the translucency of colors which could not accomplish by screen printing.

 

Unlike plastisol ink for screenprinting which is as thick as white-out, the ink used in GT-541 does not dominate the NoColor__70ia color, therefore the colors of artwork are influenced more or less by the NoColor__70ia color itself. So we offer to use Media Color setting to adjust each colors. Additionally, for example, monotone darker T-shirt colors like Gray, Sand, etc. lessen the chroma (color saturation). If you select "Gray", Printer Driver will make more saturate colors than you select "White". This will sacrifice on the detail expression but the artwork will lively produced on a gray T-shirt. If you print people's and pet's face on a pink T-shirt, use "Pink" or the face will look a little bit "drunken".
