Is Off Contact Important?
Yes, of course it is but it’s another one of those press settings that people over look. Of course we need a nice rigid screen with tight screen mesh but without off contact the ink cannot sheer as it should.

Using proper off contact press settings will make your life easier and result in better screen prints. Take the time to use some spray tack along with the off contact even on 1 color jobs and you will see how easy it can be to print the desired amount of ink you want with the least amount of effort. Don’t forget to choose your squeegee correctly too
