Before
- It took a long time to make a silkscreen printing plate.
- They struggled to express gradations.
- Even though they could handle multiple colours, they could only produce flat prototypes.
After
- Lead time has been greatly reduced with direct printing.
- It is now easy to create difficult gradient samples and to respond to detailed requests.
- The gloss ink has expanded the range of expression by enabling the production of prototypes with glossy finishes, textures, and leather-like grain.
