Who this screen printing log is for
This log is for screen printers, from hobbyists printing at the kitchen table to small shops producing shirts, tote bags and posters for customers. It suits beginners learning to burn screens and experienced printers taking larger orders. Screen printing has many variables, such as mesh, emulsion, exposure time and ink, and writing down what worked turns frustrating misprints into reliable, repeatable results.
How to use your screen printing log
Set goals for the year, such as new techniques or a target number of orders. Log each print job with garment, colors, mesh and results. Track ink colors and quantities on the ink inventory and list tools and supplies. Try one new technique at a time and record what happened. Sketch designs on the ideas pages. Record exposure times and conditions. Log customer orders with sizes and deadlines, price jobs with the cost page and photograph finished prints.
