Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: CMYK color separation to print in Black on clear film for positive

2015-07-09 by Roy Harrington

I looked at FilmMaker a little. It's pretty different. Inkjet printers really aren't
for Halftones -- they do stochastic (random) dots to produce levels of gray/color.
Seems FilmMaker simulates halftones but at a loss of resolution and levels.
If that's what you want then I guess the easiest is buying FilmMaker. Most
drivers aren't going to go that route.

Hi Roy,
Thank you for coming for help.

If you couldnt understand my requirement, please take a minute to read the below description on "FilmMaker" RIP of Cadlink Corporation. It is just for informative purpose alone.
Yes, you are correct, it involves separating of CMYK channels in HALFTONE dot pattern, and get those 4 channels printed on clear film using an Epson Sylus printer in maximum Depth of BLACK, to be used to expose screen frames for silk screen printing.

Here, there must be provision for different sizes/ shapes and diff. angles and sharpness of dotes.
I dont know, how far QTR can deliver, but I am sure if you give a try to streamline these features too, so that you can get another set of customer base: CMYK halftone printing clients: they are in 10000s + !!
