Printing Banners

printing banners

Note:Printed banners are useful for mass-producing large images. Pictures for banners may be cut out of masonite like giant woodcuts and printed on thin cotton if you are using oil-based inks. If you are using water-based inks, you can cut prints out of cardboard; these don't print well on cotton: they print better on thin lining cloth. Cut the different parts of the print apart and ink them separately, then reassemble them and drop cloth on them carefully, so there are no wrinkles. Rub the cloth so that the ink comes through, and you have a two-sided banner.

Or cut a giant stencil out of dropcloth plastic and ink over it with paint rollers.
