The stencils created by the Risograph can be used with a screenprinting setup to manually squeegee ink through. This is an alternative way of making an image for silkscreening—rather than using an emulsion-based process or another form of stencil. It also allows non-Riso inks (such as opaque whites, metallics, and other additives) to be printed, as well as printing on fabrics or other strange stocks.[1]
