FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Vastex Entry 3 Package — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Vastex Entry 3 package?
It’s the most affordable complete screen printing shop package — a turnkey tabletop starter setup of genuine Vastex equipment built to launch a printing business or serious hobby. It includes the press plus everything to expose screens, flash between colors, and cure finished prints.
Is the press included?
Yes — the Vastex V-100 4-color / 4-station tabletop press is the centerpiece. It’s an entry-level rotary press with a floating-head registration lock that prints up to four colors and mounts on any sturdy table.
Does it include a screen drying cabinet or a table?
No — Entry 3 keeps the cost as low as possible, so it doesn’t include a drying cabinet or a table for the press. You can air-dry coated screens (or add a Dri-Cab drying cabinet), and mount the V-100 on any sturdy bench.
Is this a good way to start a screen printing business?
Yes — it’s the lowest-cost complete Vastex shop and a great way to launch. Instead of piecing together gear from different brands, you get one matched, professional setup that covers the core process, can be financed together, and is backed by our support.
What else do I need to start printing?
A way to make film positives (a film-positive printer), a washout booth, a way to dry coated screens (air-dry or a drying cabinet), a sturdy table, and consumables — emulsion, screens & mesh, inks, squeegees, tape and garments.
How many colors can it print?
Up to four colors on four stations with the included V-100 tabletop rotary press.
How is Entry 3 different from the Pro and Shop packages?
Entry 3 is the tabletop entry point built on the V-100. The Pro 1 and Pro 2 step up to free-standing V-1000 presses, and the industrial V-2000 Shop 2 / Shop 3 packages add the most capacity and speed.
Can I buy the pieces separately, and is financing available?
Yes to both — every item links to its own product page, and the package can be financed as a single setup. Call (512) 454-0505 and we’ll help you set everything up and get you printing.
