Our film outputs are printed in the densest black possible to ensure crisp screen exposures. We use premium 5m waterproof films and Epson printers equipped with all black inks for optimal results.
Please note our film output pricing assumes the provided artwork is sent ready to print. Any additional artwork services needed such as vectorizing, sizing, layout or color separations will be quoted separately.
Our film outputs are optimized for the screen printing process, and may not yield ideal results for other techniques such as photogravure, cyanotype, pad printing, or solar plate etching.Â
Output size may vary by 1/8", however multi-color films will all register accurately. By submitting your artwork you acknowledge and agree to these sizing adjustments that may occur.

Beautiful opaque film output, intelligently packed and shipped promptly. Great job and the added registration marks were a welcome surprise. Thanks
Printed perfectly to fit my screen printing needs. Very opaque black--excellent.
Thanks for your professionalism!
My film positives were perfect. Nice and dark. I had no issues creating a clean sharp stencil on 160 mesh screens. They were also shipped quickly and I had them in about a week from the time I approved a digital proof. Thanks again DL
Great experience
