Screen (USA) enjoys one of the richest lineages in the graphic arts industry, with roots sunk deeply into the printing trade of the mid-1800s. The company was established in June 1967 as the first overseas subsidiary of Dainippon Screen Manufacturing Co., Ltd. The parent company, based in Kyoto, Japan, is among the world's largest providers of prepress equipment and systems. Screen's history reads like a chronology of technological milestones.
