Screen Printing is the oldest, but still one of the most popular printing methods out there. What happens in screen printing is that a layer of ink is pulled over a set screen, resulting in the production of the design. For every design, there has to be a different dedicated screen.
The working mechanism of screen printing is simple. Firstly, you have to place a stencil of the desired image on the substrate. The placement is followed by pouring ink on the stencil, and then a cotton bar is used to spread the ink over the stencil. The ink penetrates through the pores of the stencil and settles on the fabric. Once dry, the process is complete. Screen printing is often called as silk screening, serigraphy, or serigraph printing.

Sublimation Printing
The process of dye sublimation is actually very simple: it’s the application of dye into clothing to make an image, and this works best when used on polyester material or clothing. Three ingredients are used which include sublimation ink, pressure and heat. The transformation process is when solid dye particles are changed into gas, without ever becoming a liquid. This whole process is similar to that of dry ice.
