Part of the Multimedia and graphics glossary: Screen printing, also known as serigraphy, is a method of creating an image on paper, fabric or some other object by pressing ink through a screen with areas blocked off by a stencil.

In fact, the first records of printing on any type of material can be dated as far back as 960 AD in China. Screen printing can also be referred to as silk printing because of the process used to transfer the ink onto the surface such as paper, wood, rock, and most commonly today, clothing like t-shirts.
