look in the database section of the group page for working printers and  
papers.
I am not so sure silkscreening equipment is cheaper than a laser printer.  
Also, i don't think
it is cheaper than UV photo process by much.

If you can live with 300dpi a laser jet 3 can be had for less than 10$,  
and works well.
