What is the benefit of digital screening?

Digital screening is a processing algorithm that produces a continuous tone image through the arrangement of tiny binary lattice elements. Therefore, in the current "computer direct printing technology" such as computer direct production, computer direct plate making and computer direct printing/digital printing, in practical use, the handling of different halftones is almost unlimited. Digital screening emulates the tonal value of a document by forming dots with a single, tiny image element (pixel: image element).
