  • I went through my onboarding DTG U today with Luke. The lessons were great, but then Luke took a ton of time to help me get all of my settings set up correctly, and helped me run some test prints and everything is working amazingly. He genuinely went over the top to help and i could not be happier!

  • I just want to say that I'm very happy with the support I received today, and I can get back to printing thanks to James. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and quick. He was thorough and made sure I was completely satisfied before ending the call. James is a keeper!!!! Hope to get James again if I ever have any other issues.
