blackpaws 18 Posted July 28, 2014 I have a design that's 1 color but has a gradient background. I have yet to work with gradients and halftones, but from what I understand I need a special software (like Accurip) and a special Epson printer that's compatible with the software to print halftones? I'm not really in the position to spend $800 right now between software and a new printer (I just bought a new Brother printer a couple weeks ago, go figure) so was curious if anyone would be able to print the artwork for me and mail it to me and of course I'll pay? Or if anyone knows of anyone that does this. I tried searching halftone printing services but had no luck. Thanks in advance for any help or leads! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jarrotto 78 Posted July 28, 2014 You should PM Neuromax, he has rip software and can probably help you out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted July 28, 2014 I think it was Neuromax who offered to do it for me but I'd have to dig through my papers to be sure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neuromax 97 Posted July 28, 2014 I do have the BlackMaxx ink and accurip as well as Seperation Studio. If you can send the file to me at djones@designminegraphics.com I will take a look at it and see what I can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrznFire07 217 Posted July 28, 2014 if it's just a gradient background you can do the halftones in illustrator as long as you have a postscript printer. We do it all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
