Epson - F187000 - STYLUS PRO 4880 PRINTHEAD - Aurora. Bi-Directional Alignment. Hi guys, Yesterday I decided to carry out a bi-Directional alignment of my NeoFlex. I've done this several times in the past, usually following a printhead replacement. My printhead was last changed at FESPA London and we didn't have time to carry out the alignment then. This time I decided to make some notes about the process I follow mainly as an aide memoire for me, but no doubt it will help others too. This is my process. You'll be printing directly on the bed so it's very important to level the bed and set it to the correct print height you use - I believe AA use a dime between the bed and the cross bar.

This is an important step so do get it right. I use the 'Epson Remote LFP Panel' utility - there are other ways but I noticed slight differences in the method. This is the next screen to appear. The next screen you'll see is for calibration. Select Dot Size #1, this is the largest dot size and provides a more 'coarse' alignment. When you're ready, click Print. . , clever huh! Billhood.

Graphiscreen Home Page. ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY. By James Ortolani Jan 1, 2002 12:00 PM Special interest groups across America stir up the topic of environmentally correct screenprinting inks from time to time. These ecology-based groups put pressure on large sporting goods manufacturer to limit the use of PVC-based printing inks (plastisols) as well as for major printers to stop using plastisol altogether, whether for direct printing or transfers. This ongoing debate over the relative safety of PVC-based products probably won't end anytime soon.

Personally, I am a big fan of plastisol transfers, but it is nice to have an alternative to plastisol, especially when customers request garments printed with waterbase or non-PVC inks. That's why it's important to research the different types of ink systems available to your business. Direct printing with waterbase inks also has drawbacks in terms of slower print speeds, lower opacity and poor flash cure properties. Supplies: Equipment: Print the waterbase ink onto the coated transfer paper. Quality Screen Printing, Specializing in Discharge Printing and Discharge Underbase Apparel & Shirt Printing.

Learn How To Screen Print With Catspit Productions, LLC“Thin Mesh”: Higher Mesh Counts & Lower Thread Diameters An older way of thinking about screen printing tee shirts or other garments is to use lower mesh counts to achieve better coverage and color.

While it is true that leaving more ink on a fabric will tend to make it more opaque, there are better, more efficient ways of getting the same or better results. You will have to abandon your desire to do simple spot color jobs on mesh counts like 110 or lower and adopt the use of newer mesh counts. In order to use the newest monofilament polyester screen fabrics to your advantage, you will need to understand a simple characteristic of screen printing mesh.

Keeping that in mind, let’s take a look at two mesh counts for the purposes of illustrating the concept. Let’s now consider a mesh count of 150, made with a 48 micron diameter thread and stretched at 28 N/cm. This type of mesh can have great advantages for many reasons.
