- Using a pre-registration template to line your films to your screens prior to burning can save you a ton of time when you're ready to register your screens on press. There are several formats for pre-registration templates but this is the one I created for myself and how I use it to line up my screens.
If you want to give this template a try, you can download it for FREE here:

Great to hear! Go braves! 🪓🪓🪓
@@startupscreenprinting Pretty new to all of this and appreciate all the videos. How would you get the registration marks on the transparency to be the same size and in the same spot on a transparency. Im using photoshop and have seen ways to create registration marks however would they not have to be in the same spot as the registration marks on your template? Appreciate your time and knowledge!
Great question Andrew. I’m releasing my proof template soon and it has registration marks that match the reg template. But you can grab the ones on the reg template and use them on your output file. Kinda hard to explain in too much detail in this comment so maybe I’ll just do a more detailed video on it.
the proof template I mentioned is now available here: shop.startupscreenprinting.com/products/art-proof-template?ToPasteBoard&
I just printed the template at walgreens for $17! Same day pickup. I plan to adhere to a foam core board myself. Thanks for the template...and the videos!
That is awesome!
I have a very similar one I made. I glued a length of aluminium L shaped angle all along the bottom of the template to just butt the screen into.
That's a great idea, Ray!
Been looking for something like that. The one on ryonet is nice but the platen sizes are just a bit off.
Great hope this one is helpful! And plus why in the world is Ryonet's $99?! haha
FIRST! GO DENVER FAN SINCE 1974 ...THANKS FOR THE TEMPTS- FROM 49ER BAY AREA
👊🏼😎
Hey what's going on? I've kind of fallen off from watching your channel trying to get back on. You have excellent content. Please keep it up.🔥🔥🔥👍🏿
Thank you, and welcome back! I've fallen off from uploading new videos because of some family things going on the last couple of months (lost a family member to cancer) but hopefully things are getting back to normal now and I can start uploading again very, very soon. Thank you for your support!
Awesome yeah I don't bang with alot of these screen printing companies cause they straight rip you off. You don't need to be that expensive for basic stuff. I truly appreciate it
happy to help, hope you find the template useful!
Just ordered the board from you. Just wished it came with the template you use in platen as well lol. I have been having trouble with 3 plus colors
I’ll work on putting that up as a product then!
@@startupscreenprintingdid you put the template up for sale as well? The one for the platen
You can purchase the digital file here: shop.startupscreenprinting.com/products/on-press-registration-template?ToPasteBoard& You'll have to have it printed somewhere using the file.
Awesome video Jesse! I'll definitely be printing this out this week and try to nail down my registration process. Quick question--I have a one station press, but I do have an aluminum platen. Is there a basic/standard distance the platen should from the screen when it's down or a standard distance from the stop for the print arm? I think that has been part of my problem is I don't know exactly where it should be. Perhaps once I download the template I'll answer my own question, but I thought I'd go to the guru :) Thank you for this video!!!
I think this template will really help, Heather! There's really no "official" distance or location that it should be, just whatever works for you. If you take this template and the video where I talked about lining up my platens on press, then what you'll see is that I have my platens set to where I can register my films based on this template and then I end up with a front print that is about 3" down from the neck seam and also about 3" down from the edge of the platen. What that means is I can be confident that every front print I do, I place the shirt on the platen and hang the neck seam just off the edge of the platen or sometimes about a finger width off the edge and it leaves me with a great front print location. Does that make sense?
@@startupscreenprinting Yes! It totally does! I'm always trying to dial in all of the intricacies that go into screen printing and this has definitely been one that I don't feel confident in. I've been getting by, but I'd like something I can rely on and I think your template will solidify my process! Thank you!!
Awesome! well let me know if you have any issues with it!
Can you tell me what specific size of film should I print this?
You probably don't want this printed on film as it's full color and I assume your film printer is just black. You'd want to modify the file in AI or something to be what you need it to be. I have mine printed on a foam core board
Hi quick Q. set film up close to top of screen, looks like 3". That top of the screen will be at bottom of platen where collar is, right? TIA
you should determine that by where you position your platens on your press. You can adjust the template to match wherever your platens fit. But on mine, yes the top of my artwork typically lands right at the 3" or so mark below the collar seam/end of the platen.
Thank you sir, i appreciate this🙏🏽Aloha
My pleasure!
My frame is 16x22, should I print this file on a 16x22 film or paper
the template is made for 20x24 frame size so it would need to be modified to fit your frame size
Love the template; possible to get it for 23-31 frame? I use Newman Roller frames in that size.
I sure can! I'll put that on my list of todos. Thank you for the idea! I'll try to get that live as soon as I can but might be a couple weeks. Keep an eye on my website (startupscreenprinting.com) or in the community at theprintcrew.com and i'll make sure to post something both places when it's ready
@@startupscreenprinting Thanks appreciate it mucho. I am a small screenprint part-time in my garage but have excellent equipment. Also looking for the edge, thanks for the great info. I agree on the expensive one from Ryonet, wow $99.00.
Took me a while to get to it, but I finally added a 23x31 frame size to the reg template. You can access the template again and download the new files.
Can I print this file to A3+ film?
If you open the PDF version you should be able to see the dimensions, I believe it's 24"x28"
Video to screen record and savee
glad you found it helpful!
So the only question I have about the template that I found good with your old one is that there are no marks for the left chest print layouts
Yeah I removed them because it has more reg lines on the new one, it was only a box anyway. I could probably add it back if that’s helpful. I removed it because left chest placement isn’t the same on all sizes so if you’re doing only larger sizes you might not use the box
@@startupscreenprinting ohhh ok
Hi I entered my email address but received nothing, is tihs available for download?
Yes if you enter it here and then click confirm in the first email you get, you will then get the template startupscreenprinting.com/resources/pre-registration-template/
Would you consider doing any consulting or training $? I have all the equipment and paid for the following software: kittl, separation studio next with an accurip ABI system...all the tools. Hours on youtube but I cant find specific answers, epecially in a timely manner, so if yourself or know of someone else I use as a resource, I would greatly appreciate it.
Yes! Email me and we can talk details. You can find my email at ssp.ink/go I think it’s at the bottom of the page
