Silkscreening is most appropriate for up to 3 color printing – especially if the colors are PMS colors and for solid ink coverage. With silkscreening, ink is applied to a screen and forced through the holes in a stencil to create an image on the surface of the disc.

Offset printing provides higher quality image at 175 lines per inch (vs. 85-135 lines per inch for silkscreen). Offset printing applies 4 layers of ink (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) on-disc.
Offset printing is ideal for full-color designs, skin tones, and crisp text. Offset also imparts a slight matte effect to the disc face.
