When thinking about how i will print my business cards, flyer and also printing onto my sketch book covers i had 3 different processes to choose from which all had there positives and negatives.
mono printing
+ traditional method
+ once design created easy to produce a lot
+ create textured prints that would create a personal touch
- prints may all be different and not perfect
digital printing
+ quick to print
+ design comes out same as seen on the screen
- costs a lot to have printed to high quality and on good stock (cost per page)
- limited on colours no metallic colour can be printed
screen printing
+ traditional method of printing
+ once screen prepared can have large print run for not extra cost
+ only ink costs money, and nice stock if wanted
+ creates a textured print that would create a personal touch
- long preparation time for screens
From the methods considered above i have chosen to print using screen printing method as i have pervious experience in this method, the prints will also not be limited on colour choice and have a personal touch of being printed by hand. Although mono printing has the same effect, screen printing has a more reliable out come as all print will print the exact same.
