- What is the difference between digital printing and screen printing?
-
The Process: A different screen for each color to be printed is required with screen printing and each screen must be lined up evenly to make a clear image, which takes a highly skilled hand to perform. Digital printing is almost completely automated and prints all colors at the same time, requiring less personal involvement and technical skill in the printing process.
Printing Speed: A digital printer processes all the colors at once and, overall, runs at a relatively slower speed than the traditional screen printer.
Print Detail: Images for screen printing have to be simple in design and reduced to definite lines and shapes, while a digital printer takes a design directly from a computer and replicate every detail. Besides, designs for screen printing are often limited to a color range of 3-4 colors due to the complexity of the printing process, while there is no such limitation with digital printing,
