4/C Process<br />
When printing black ink use a black<br />
specifically designed for process<br />
printing. Regular black is too<br />
strong and does not print halftones<br />
well.<br />
Some designs need very little<br />
black, some designs do not need<br />
the black plate at all.<br />
To determine proper mesh mutiple<br />
the halftone line count by 4.5 for<br />
the correct mesh.<br />
45 line halftone output at 7 degrees<br />
x 4.5 = 202.5 so a 200 tpi (threads<br />
per inch) will print with no moire.<br />
65 line x 4.5 = 292.5 so a 300 tpi<br />
screen will print without moire as<br />
long as the starting halftone angle<br />
is 7 degrees. There are many<br />
angles that won’t moire, 7 degrees<br />
for the first screen helps.
