Abstract
A method for printing a graphic having uniform ink density on selected pixel locations of a printing screen coated with a light sensitive emulsion is provided. According to one embodiment of the invention, only some of the pixel locations are printed as required to form a desired image during the first pass of a printhead across a strip of the emulsion coated screen. The remaining pixel locations are printed as required during a second pass of the printhead across the strip. According to a second embodiment of the invention, a portion of the pixel locations in each strip are re-printed on the next succeeding pass of the printhead across the screen.
