Description

High-screen printing method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of printing, and particularly relates to a high-screen printing method.
Background
Amplitude modulation screening is the most widely used printing screening method at present, and is characterized in that the area rate of the screen dots is determined by the gray value of image pixels, the number of the screen lines is determined by the number of the unit length, the small dots are regularly diffused and intensively distributed from the center to the periphery to form the screen dots, and the shape and the screening angle of the screen dots are determined by the diffusion rule. The distance between the net points in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction is equal.
The amplitude modulation screening technology is mature, particularly, the screen has perfect performance on the position of the intermediate tone, has low requirements on equipment environment and printing conditions, and is widely applied to prepress treatment. However, the am screening technique still has some inevitable drawbacks: the distance between amplitude modulation and screening dots is fixed, and fine layers of images cannot be represented at the positions of bright tones and dark tones, so that high-fidelity printing cannot be performed; the angles of the four-color screening are different, and moire patterns and inevitable fine rose spots are easy to appear when the colors are copied; in the process of increasing the gray value of the pixel, as the area of amplitude-modulated screening dots is increased, the dots are contacted with each other finally, and tone level jump is generated; in order to avoid moire, amplitude modulation screening can only take four screening angles of 15 degrees, 45 degrees, 75 degrees and 90 degrees, and multicolor printing of more than four colors is not supported.
The frequency modulation screening technology is one of the main development directions of the current screen dot technology, the size of the frequency modulation screening screen dots is basically unchanged, the screen dots are irregularly distributed, different spatial positions exist along with different screening algorithms, the screen dot spacing is unequal, the screen dot distribution density (frequency and the number of the screen dots) shows a gradation level, the concepts of screen lines and screening angles do not exist, and the screen dot diameter is usually used for distinguishing. Compared with amplitude modulation screening, frequency modulation screening can reproduce more image details, can solve the problems of saw teeth and breakage of thin lines, and generation of moire and rose spots due to screen collision of images with textures and grids, does not need to consider the angles of screen dots, can realize the effect of high-line-number printing, and can be used for high-fidelity printing. But also has the following defects: the mesh points have granular feeling due to equal size, the position of each group of mesh points is difficult to control in the middle adjusting position, and particularly, ink spots can occur during the flat screen; in the whole production process, the latitude is smaller than that of an amplitude modulation screening technology, so that a more detailed process control and monitoring technology is required; the size of the dots is too small, the difficulty of imaging the dots on a printing plate is high, the requirements on equipment and environment are high, so that many printing machines cannot correctly finish dot reproduction, and the dot expansion is serious and is difficult to control.
