Import Tips
• Include mill test reports confirming no multiple/cabled yarns and exact yarn singles count to meet printcloth definition
• Label as 'printcloth' only if specs match; generic 'printed nylon' risks reclassification and higher scrutiny
• Check for napping; allowed but document to prevent confusion with broadcloth
