Hi Johnathan:
First I would like to thank you for all of your videos. I purchased my first 4 color station yesterday and haven't received it yet. I am looking to purchase an Epson 1400, but without the halftone software. You mentioned outsourcing halftone images instead of printing them yourself and I was curious where you could outsource that to?
Thanks so much dude, you rock!

Re: Outsourcing
You would need to find a print house in your city if you cannot find a service online. A print house will make cyanotype blue prints, architectural documents among other things and they will have image setters for making large positives or negatives.
Most of them will have some experience in printing film positives for screen printing. But you may just as easily Google “screen printing film positive services” and find this type of service online where you can send in your file and get film positives shipped to you.
Sometime in the future I may too offer this service. I am waiting to get my hands on that thermal printer and then I will probably offer this on my website. Perhaps by the end of the summer this will be on my website.
In the meantime you could also check with Greg. Maybe he can do them easily for you
