Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
The K3 ink in the 4800 is weaker than one would wish for screenprint positives. You can get a Wasatch RIP SP which allows you to print at hi-res and lower he ink to about 50%, that should give you a good dense positive.

Then you don't have to use that nasty milky waterproof film and you can use this film for $56 bucks! http://stuff4print.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=43_28&products_id=156
Whats your beef with the waterProof film? I happen to like it very much over nonwaterproof, unless I just have not found the right nonwaterproof film yet. Right now I,m using a WPF from WM Plastics call microjet about $110 a box 13x18.
Any suggestions on printer settings to obtain dark black on films. New to this printer any tips/suggestions would be appreciated.-Jay
Can I chime in? I think what Jay was asking is what setting do you use on the printer itself. I know nothing about printers, much less Epsons, but somewhere there are setting for paper, glossy, film, etc. I think those are what he was asking about.
