Mission

Gail Flower Editor

Screen Printing magazine is the leading publication and trusted source of information for the screen-printing industry. Every issue of the magazine covers news, products, features, and cutting-edge columns that educate and inform professionals in the screen-printing industry about the latest methods, equipment, and materials. However, topics aren’t limited to printing techniques, but also include alternative imaging processes, color management, prepress, ink developments, finishing technology, cuttingedge applications, and more. Each issue of Screen Printing is structured around a theme, such as garments, specific tradeshows, and a sourcebook of technical information. To convey specific information, authors present case histories or tutorials. Each issue in 2011 will also contain an article on varied aspects of garment printing and yet another feature geared for business-management guidance in addition to regular features and columns. Screen Printing informs, educates, and supports professionals with collaborative information geared to their exact field of concentration to help them save time, money, and energy.

Editorial Exploring All Technologies

Providing Expert Advice

Screen Printing explores a diverse range of technologies employed by screen shops, including screen printing, wide-format digital imaging, special-effects garment decorating, doming, diecutting, laminating, and additional specialty processes generally overlooked by other printing-industry publications.

We offer a stable of regular columnists who benefit readers with expert experience and insight about a range of technologies, markets, and management practices. Candid advice and observations from the following individuals give our readers an edge in dealing with key business concerns:

Staying in Touch with Readers

Mark Coudray Prepress Wire
