Prints produced by forcing ink through design-stenciled fine mesh screens. Screens are made from [[silk]], [[nylon fiber|nylon]], or [[polyester fiber|polyester]] fabric on which the non-printing areas are blocked out with [[lacquer, synthetic|lacquer]], [[shellac]], or [[glue]]. A squeegee is used to force ink through the regions of the fabric that remain porous. The resultant prints have thick, uniform areas of color. The fabric screens can be prepared with light sensitive coatings to transfer images from photographs.
