Screen VS Offset
SCREEN PRINTING
Screen printing is the process for smaller quantities and
the best quality image. Screened images are very sharp and crisp with
good ink opacity and even the ability to over print multiple colors
to solve registration problems in some art. Normal production time
is 5 working days, but rush service is available at no additional
charge for this process (See rush request info). One disadvantage of
the screen process is multiple colors must be printed and reregistered
one at a time making it more costly than offset printing.
OFFSET PRINTING
Offset printing provides an economical way of printing larger quantities
and up to 4 color imprints in one pass. Quality of offset printing is
sometimes less than screen printing. Some slurring and blurring is possible.
Do not expect the same clarity of print as screen printing. Please request
random samples if this is a concern. Normal production time is 10
working days. |
