Screen Fee

Screen Fee

The Screen Fee covers the materials and labor required to prepare the screens used in the screen-printing process. Each color in a design requires its own custom-prepared screen, which must be created, aligned, and tested before production begins.

This fee ensures your artwork is properly set up for accurate color transfer, crisp detail, and consistent printing quality throughout the production run.

What This Fee Covers

• Preparation of screen printing files for each color in your design.
• Materials required to create the physical screen(s).
• Labor & setup time for coating, exposing, and aligning screens.
• Registration and testing to ensure accurate print placement.
• Quality control prior to full production.

When is the Screen Fee Required?

• Any order requiring screen printing.
• Each individual color added to a design requires a separate screen.
• Reorders may require a new screen if artwork or setup changes.
