When prints done using the Epson Ecotank don’t last on the screen printing film

I bought an EPSON – ET 14000 printer so that I could print films to expose my screen printing frames, the print quality is high, but the prints fade over time. I put the black ink in the tank, where am I going wrong?

It’s quite simple to obtain films for exposing screen printing frames with opaque black that are long lasting: the problem you’re having is linked to the fact that you only put ink in the black ink tank. It’s necessary to put black ink in all the other tanks as well.

Do you have a curiosity or a question to ask us?
