AutoPrintShop is where a working screen printer shares what actually runs his shop: checklists, quote terms, and the pricing tool he built because nothing else did the math right.
I'm Ryan Lamb. My family and I run Lamb Screen Printing in San Diego, and I've been in this trade for over 25 years. Everything on this site exists because I needed it on my own floor first. More about the shop and why this site exists.
Tools for pricing, separations, proofs, DTF gang sheets and embroidery, built by printers and small makers. Every one carries the same facts: what it does, what it costs, who built it and how your data gets out.

Read the guideYoPrint, Teesom, shopVOX and DecoNetwork side by side from their own pricing pages and docs, and the eight questions I would ask any of them before signing. From a shop that moved 6,400 orders out.
Read the comparisonTell it what your shop runs and describe the job. It rates your own machines, bought transfers and subbing it out, with the reasons and what would change the answer.
Route a jobGetting my orders out of Printavo took hours. Making years of history usable took a month. What broke, what never came over, and a video of the result.
I moved 6,454 orders and every file out of Printavo before canceling. The API died in 15 minutes, not five days. What to export, in what order, and when.
Most shops guess their hourly rate, and the guess is usually about half the real number. The math, the three lines everyone forgets, and a free calculator.
Everything here was used at Lamb Screen Printing before it was published. The checklists, the quote terms, the pricing math. If it did not survive a Tuesday on the press, it is not on the site.
Most pricing calculators ask what you want to charge. PrintGrid starts with what it actually costs you, then shows your margin across every quantity and color count as a heatmap. Screen print, embroidery, DTF, HTV, large format and more.
