January 23, 2014

Veteran screen printing artist and author Thomas Trimingham is offering a new DVD on how to achieve high-quality halftone prints.

Trimingham took his test files from more than 10 years of professional industry consulting, refined them and combined them with a comprehensive e-book in one DVD that demonstrates how to achieve high-quality halftone prints in the shortest possible time.

The video’s aim is to help viewers standardize their dots and create superior-quality halftones using existing equipment.

This DVD also will show viewers how to:
–    Discover the best dpi for detail printing using the dpi guide
–    Determine the best dot shape using the shape guide test
–    Adjust equipment to create the best printing pressure for halftone clarity and edge quality
–    Use a proven method for finding the best index dot-resolution size
–    Determine an ideal trapping need
–    Standardize inks and create an ink guide that saves money on every order
–    Create the best CMYK profile for process printing
–    Expand capabilities by standardizing specialty prints.


Thomas Trimingham has been working in screen printing for more than 21 years as an industry consultant, freelance artist and high-end separator. He is an award-winning illustrator, designer and author of more than 110 articles on screen printing art and separations. He also has taught multiple seminars on advanced separations for screen printing.
