FAQs
Screen printing is where ink is flooded onto a polyester mesh and pushed through an open stencil (via squeegee pressure) transferring the ink to the substrate/material.
Digital printing takes a digital image and prints it directly to the material, while screen printing takes the digital image, breaks it down into separate images of color, uses a squeegee and stencil to push the different colored inks through, finally, creating a finished image. Digital printing is often more efficient, faster with smaller quantities while screen printing is more efficient with larger quantities.
We’ve printed on everything from satellites to traditional print substrates. We get new materials to formulate and test out every week. So whether it’s an old or new substrate, we will help you pick the one that best fits your project.
Special effects printing is an area where screen printing really shines (literally and figuratively). Some of the most common special effects include (but not limited to): reflective, translucent, chalkboard, scratch off, and glow in the dark.
Simply put, digital printing is just a much larger version of a desktop printer. We can print on 2 large rolls at a time or with just single sheets of varying thickness.

We are proud to have one of the most extensive large format digital printing selection in the US. From double roll feeding UV printing to latex printing we have whatever it takes to get the job done.
Having screen and digital print capability is helpful for a number of reasons, but having them in the same building is far more rare and invaluable. Having these processes in close proximity allows us to give you multiple options for a single project, it also allows us to interchange processes within that project! Other printers have to outsource, ship, or transport back and forth which just adds time and cost.
