For screenprinting you need to print a film positive that is opaque enough to block out light while exposing.

Supplies

• Canon Pixma ix6820 - 13” wide, commonly recommended for this specific task
• AccuInk - UV black

Print Settings

It takes a very specific combination of settings to get the darkest opacity.

1. Media Type Photo Paper Pro Platinum
2. Print Quality Custom
3. Quality Fine
4. Grayscale Check
5. Color Settings
   1. Brightness Dark
   2. Intensity 50

I’m still not super happy with the opacity, I think the third-party blacks vary a lot. There is black ink formulated for this purpose, need to look into it.
