screenprinting halftone?

[Guest freedomfighter]

I have a 195 mesh screen. Anyone know how to best prep halftone images to be screenprinted in one color?

dont you need to run the image into photoshop to make it one color.

Use a xerox machine to create a transparency-blow up/mess with the image. Old xerox machines are the best laser jet machines are okay=creates pixels you might like this-prep work is similar to developing an image for photography

here are some pages-www.nomediakings.org/doityourself/howto_silkscreen_posters_and_shirts.html

do you need to know how to burn your screen?http://www.silkscreenbiz.com/learning/burning.htm

and pulling a print is pretty easy buy some ink at the store. Black is pretty messy reds and blues are easier to work with as well as yellow. I have my screens burned for me, although I do know how to do it it costs around twenty bucks and saves me the hassle of cleaning out my sink. The stuff will get everywhere although quite a few people work from home and use their bathtubs and stuff. Really go to kinkos they have transparency paper. You really just need to know how to work a copy machine.
