Like Rafael and Webstarian already wrote you need to rework it on illustrator starting with the vector format, some tips to be sure to present a good file to the printer:


Expand fonts lines and everything that can be expanded just to have all filled shapes.
Well organize all shapes (trying to clean up overlapping shapes).
Renane and organize layers with friendly names (avoid duplicates).
Work with spot colors if the kind of print need it.
Trying to control gradients.
Check the black apparence, be sure to have it on Rich Black


Export as pdf version is the most common solution

You need to go back and apply the gradient on Ilustrator with the proper color combination and percentages (Most likely in CMYK format).

The moment you have a PNG to be used on a website (png) you loose totally any "print quality", except for very tiny, and I mean very tiny sizes.

Print quality means resolution at least 300dpi. Color mode cmyk is recommended. Vector formats are crisper than rasters.
