Part 1 on how to print CMYK film positives from the Epson printer in the Computer Lab.
~~~ QUICK REFERENCE: ~~~
[1.] Photoshop - Image / Mode / CMYK
[2.] 8 bits / channel (this should be the default)
[3.] @4:30 minutes ... Image / Image Size
[4.] Make visual edits to the image.. note that you might want to increase the visual contrast, because this process will decrease the contrast of the final result.
[5.] Make sure that visual adjustments are done. Save the file. Split the channels.
[6.] @20 minutes ... using AccuRIP program to pre-process the image for the Epson printer (choose elliptical dots to get the maximum detail for screenprinting).
[7.] Your screen mesh is 195 threads / inch. On this screen, "I" want you to go no more than 35 lpi / dpi (line per inch / dots per inch).
[8.] @27 minutes... the angles that you need to set the color channels at to correct for moiré pattern interference:
* = degrees
Black: 45*
Yellow: 90*
Magenta: 161.6*
Cyan: 108.4*
