You may have considered this; but screens may be printed "on contact" or "off
contact" The sharper image with the least risk of bleeing comes from "off
contact" printing. In this case the screen is held off from the printed
surface by a small distance (1/8" to 1/4") and as the squeegee is pulled, the
screen is stretched down to make contact with the printed surface. After the
squeegee passes the screen snaps back up. The "off contact" distance can be
created by taping some sort of shim (pennies for example) on the corners of the
screen. Other systems can be improvised. John Jensen in Annapolis
