Lowrider Presses: A space saving printer/dryer setup (although you can find these as just a press or just a dryer). With a lowrider press, you can save a lot of space... which will basically allow you to have all of the ability of a manual pro shop press that only takes up as much space as one car in your garage. This is perfect if you want to do high volume printing, but are limited on space. It also has the added bonus of a dryer to further automate your process.

Automatic Presses: Automatic presses are a bit on the expensive side. If you are operating your own business and have several large projects or the need to do large numbers of jobs on a regular basis, these can increase your production levels by a significant margin. This type of silk screen machine is rather large, so it isn't for you if you are tight on space or don't have a need to press several thousand pieces a day.
