  The most common method for printing plastic bags is flexogrphic printing. Basically printing plates are made from the art supplied, and laid down on the plastic film. The plastic film is them converted into a plastic bag.

  There are 2 forms of flexographic printing: Spot printing, where there is an electronic eye that catches the exact spot where the image is to be printed on the plastic bag. Random printing of plastic bags does not utilize an electronic eye, and thus random images and even half of an image can come down on the plastic bag. Spot printing of plastic bags are most commonly used on promotional plastic bags, shopping bags, and packaging. Random printing of plastic bags is used more for garbage bags, plastic liners, and plastic covers.
