Screenprinting T-Shirts: Increasing Print Resolution And Clarity On Press

Post by Catspit Productions »

Here’s another educational video about screenprinting tee shirts and other fabrics. This video discusses how to increase your print resolution while printing on press. It’s an extension of our last video about fibrillation. We all know that using a higher mesh count will produce a higher resolution stencil. But what about when you’re actually printing the shirts on the rotary textile screenprinting press? Then it comes down to a matter of technique and skill. In this tutorial video I show you some very basic tips on how to keep you print looking sharp, crisp and clear. Get the edges of your text nice and sharp with these simple yet fundamental tips. You’ll get to see a really flooded out print with fibrillation and then we’ll look at a much better print with little fibrillation and a sharp print. We did use an old test rag for this video so even the second print would look even better if we printed on brand new garments. So follow along as we take a look at some printing techniques and test prints for your viewing enjoyment and edification. Enjoy!
