Digital BW, The Print

Steve K wrote suggesting silk screen printing for coating inkjet
prints.

I have never coated a print with a squeegee or a mayer rod, but it
seems to me that screen printing would allow you to put down a
precisely defined area of coating -- perhaps just larger than the
printed image -- rather than a messy edge that threatens to glue the
print to the workbench.

Deeply obsessive people might like to see an expanse of uncoated paper
outside the coated inkjet image, but inside the window mat.

When I saw Mark Tucker's pictures of his spray booth, I thought of
masking tape for the same purpose.

(Didn't Ernst Dinkla mention screen printed coatings here a long time
ago, or was that on some other list...)
