Instant screen print quotes — before you separate

Know what to charge before you waste time separating the file

Most shops quote in a spreadsheet that's disconnected from the artwork, then separate, then discover the job needs more screens than they priced. The Instant Quote Generator is built into the same app that pulls your seps — so the price and the production reality always match.

What the calculator works out

• Number of screens — one per ink color, plus a white underbase and highlight white when the garment needs them.
• Setup charge — a per-screen fee plus any flat job fee, billed to the customer.
• Estimated press time — setup time plus run time, scaled by colors, flash passes, and run length.
• Suggested retail per piece — marked-up garment cost plus the print price, with quantity price breaks at 12 / 24 / 48 / 100 / 250 / 500.
• Customer quote — the full job total, with a minimum-order floor.
• Your profit and margin — internal numbers the customer never sees, so you can quote with confidence.

Quote in two ways

	Before separating	After separating
Where the numbers come from	Your palette size + garment choice	The real screen count, underbase & highlight white
Best for	Quoting a customer on the spot	Confirming the final invoice
Speed	Seconds — no file prep	Auto-updates the moment the seps finish

Pricing that matches your shop

Every number behind the quote is editable: shop labor rate, per-screen setup, on-press speeds, ink cost per color, garment markup, and your quantity price breaks. Set them once and every quote follows your real economics — not a generic average.

Pair it with the screen print profit calculator, the print-readiness check, or separating to the inks you already own.
