With more than 40 years of developing high-quality, affordable presses, the Riley Hopkins brand has sold the most manual presses in screen printing history. It has jumpstarted thousands of printers’ careers with machinery built like race cars. Step on the gas and outpace the competition with the new Riley Hopkins 250+ Press.

The 250+ is packed with pro-grade features to keep your multi-color printing streamlined and steady. The heavy-duty Dual-Bearing Gate locks the printhead into zero-flex alignment for years of rock-solid, consistent registration. For on-the-fly calibration, the tool-less off-contact adjustment knob lets you switch from standard t-shirts to thick fleece hoodies by hand quickly and accurately. The 250+ features high-leverage locking levers, the same style as the Riley Hopkins 360. These levers provide total lockdown power, making it incredibly fast to secure your setup and eliminate screen creep during long production runs.

Perfect for printers looking to run their production in a garage, spare bedroom, or basement, this compact press layout is easy to set up. The press arrives at your door 90% preassembled; all you need is one Phillips head screwdriver, two 1/2” wrenches, and two 9/16” wrenches to complete the assembly. That’s it. You will have your equipment up and running in minutes. Attach the press onto a spare table, workbench, or a recommended Riley Hopkins Cart, which holds screen inventory and has heavy-duty retractable casters for mobility and semi-permanent placement.

Best of all, the 250+ features a modular chassis engineered to grow right along with your production output. You can start with an efficient, space-saving two-station setup today to keep your upfront equipment costs low, and bolt on two extra stations tomorrow to expand into a full four-station layout when order volumes demand it. When you are eventually ready to move up into a high-production Riley Hopkins 360 or even an automatic press, this expandable configuration remains highly useful for smaller orders, sample proofs, overflow jobs, and live printing events. The 250+ will forever earn its keep as you expand your business.
