Screen Printing Inputs

Screen Printing provides the following PSOs:

Number of Colors Used on Screen Print

Number of colors affects screen printing costs—see Screen Printing Formulas. The default number of colors is specified by the cost model variable defaultNumScreenPrintColors, 1 in aPriori starting point VPEs. You can override the default and specify the number of colors explicitly. Select one of the following options:

• Default Number of Colors (specified by the cost model variable defaultNumScreenPrintColors, 1 in aPriori starting point VPEs)

• User Override: enter the number of colors.

Length of Screen Print

Screen print length affects screen printing costs—see Screen Printing Formulas. By default, screen length is part length. You can override the default and specify the length explicitly. Select one of the following options:

• Default Screen Length (part length)

• User Override: enter the screen print length.

Width of Screen Print

Screen print width affects screen printing costs—see Screen Printing Formulas. By default, screen width is part width. You can override the default and specify the width explicitly. Select one of the following options:

• Default Screen Width (part width)

• User Override: enter the screen print width.

Complexity of Print

By default, print complexity makes no contribution to the cycle time multiplier described in Screen Printing Formulas. You can override the default and specify the contribution of complexity to the multiplier by selecting one of the following options:

• Basic (simple text or graphics): specifies a value of 0.

• Medium Complexity (simple text and graphics): specifies the value of the cost model variable screenPrintComplexityMultiplier, 0.75 in aPriori starting point VPEs.

• High Complexity (large amount of text or detailed graphics): specifies twice the value of the cost model variable screenPrintComplexityMultiplier.
