High Density <strong>Printing</strong><br />

For dramatic high density ink<br />

thickness of 1/8” or more it is easier<br />

to print stacked layers of high<br />

density.<br />

In this image it would be possible to<br />

lay down a 200 –300 micron white<br />

high density base, flash it, and print<br />

another 200 red plate, flash it, and a<br />

300 white plate for the letters.<br />

Stacking requires analyzing the art<br />

and combining elements to raise the<br />

elevation equally.<br />

It is impossible to print the white in a<br />

400 micron screen, flash it, and then<br />

print a 400 micron red.<br />

When designing stacked high<br />

density print all elements as a base,<br />

possibly several times, then print<br />

200 micron screens for the color.<br />

Raise off contact for every new<br />

elevation of high density printing.
