Difference between screen printing and digital printing (4 color printing):
Ink by screen printing is thicker than that by digital printing on overlay, which results in brighter colors and higher level of vibrancy for screen printing. So, Screen printing is more popular than digital printing; while digital printing can make much more details, such as gradually changing color.
