Risograph Printing FAQs
What is risograph printing?
A risograph printer applies one ink color at a time through a stencil. Colors are layered to create the finished image. The process produces vivid, slightly varied prints with a tactile, ink-on-paper quality.
What kinds of projects can you print?
Common risograph projects include zines, posters, art prints, invitations, and small publications. Share what you have in mind, along with the size and quantity, to discuss whether the process suits your project.
How should I prepare my artwork?
Artwork is typically separated by ink color, with each color supplied as its own layer or file. Check image resolution, page size, and margins before sending files. Contact the studio to confirm its preferred setup.
Can risograph colors line up perfectly?
Risograph printing can have slight shifts where color layers meet. These small registration variations are part of the process, so designs that allow a little movement tend to work well.
How do I get started with a print project?
Send a description of your project, approximate size, quantity, and preferred timeline. Include artwork if it is ready. The studio can review the details and help clarify paper, color, and file needs.
