Comparison between screen printing and intaglio printing. As far as the procedure of forming of passive film on the surface of silicon is concerned, 8 procedures are needed for intaglio printing, while only 2 procedures are needed for screen printing. The procedures are simplified greatly. However, because solder paste which is inconvenient for printing is used, and high precision printing dimensions are required, high precision screen is needed.

Comparison between screen printing and offset printing. When the procedures of necessary additive painting on the liquid crystal panel in the same production condition are compared, the producing capacity of screen printing is 4 times of that of offset printing, thus greatly reduces the production cost. The problem with screen printing is to avoid the damage to the alignment film. If this problem can be solved, the market demands of screen printing will increase greatly with the development of the markets of automobile navigation, auto phone and LCD-TV.
