The screen printing press further comprises an intermediate drying unit (10) located between the first and second screen printing units (2b, 2c) for drying at least an outer superficial portion (S) of the first ink pattern (A) applied by the first screen printing unit (2b) before application of the second ink pattern (B) by the second screen printing unit (2c). Preferably, the second screen printing unit (2c) is adapted to apply the second ink pattern (B) in close proximity to the first ink pattern (A) or at least in a partially overlapping manner onto the first ink pattern (A).</p> |
