A screenplay is a preproduction tool, whereas a script is a production/post production tool. From the filmmaking side, being on set, we refer to the printed copy as a script. The script is a tool that the actor and rest of the crew use while on set at a particular location, and is often only a portion of the entire screenplay. Directors, actors, continuity directors, script supervisors, and film loaders (clapper/slate operators) often make notations on their own copy of the script. The screenplay would be the entire thing, in its original form. You might submit a screenplay, but you wouldn't submit a script.
