How To Register Multi Color Jobs NO Micro Reg

Post by Catspit Productions »

This screenprinting educational video has been requested many times in the past. This is one of those topics that is not easy to teach and may be more a matter of experience than anything. Many people seem to have issues when registering multi-color print jobs on presses that do not have micro registration. But It is not necessarily the fault of the printer in that the build of the press may be at fault. Many bench presses are built in such a way that the screen moves when you tighten the clamps. Why does that happen? How does that affect my registration and how do you prevent it? These are not easy questions to answer in this instance but there are a few things that we can share with you that may help make it easier for you to register your multi-color screen print jobs on press when you have no micro registration. So follow Jonathan along as he shares his personal experiences with printing on presses without micro registration.
