Screen Printing is the process of using a Mesh-based stencil to apply ink onto a substrate, whether it textile, paper, stickers, vinyl, wood, or other material. This printing technique that uses a woven Mesh to support an ink-blocking stencil to receive a desired image. The attached stencil forms open areas of Mesh that transfer ink or other printable materials which can be pressed through the Mesh as a sharp-edged image onto a substrate. A fill blade or squeegee is moved across the screen stencil, forcing or pumping ink through the Mesh openings to wet the substrate during the squeegee stroke.
