Anyone here that I can HIRE to help me with film please?

Hi guys, I bought a printing press ryobi 3302 to print for a church I recently got my art work done and am ready to print with metal plates as the poly plates are bad and terrible to use cannot get work done. I do have the correct plate burner but I have no way to get the film. I need to find someone who can take my file and make the film for me and send to me. I will pay what it is worth and don't expect anything for free. I just need the help. I can pay via paypal and send you the files needed to make the film for me so I can burn the plates with it. I have to pamplets to make approx 11x17 front and back so I need four films made for this. Anyone please?

 

Did you check laserproof films already, maybe laser polyplates also.
Films/plates that you can print on basic A3 laser printer.

 

No i need film to burn my plates as mentioned above i dont want poly plates. I dont know if there is a regular biz in sacramento ca area that does this or not?

 

I know around here getting film is no easy trick.. just a thought but why don' t you find someone to make plates for you from your electronic art?

 

That would work great also if someone here said they will make the plates for me. As i would send them the plates. I would like to get the film but burning my plates would be awesome! I am trying to find a photography shop to make me film that will also work right?? I am new at this. Dumb question but is there any trick on the developing side i would need to know? Any special development to tell them if i find such a place?

 

No such thing as a dumb question. If you find someone to burn your plates they will probably have their own system, your plates may not work with their platemaker. As long as the density in the film is correct your good to go, I don't recall what it is off hand. You just need it dark enough to stop light from going through where you don't want it. Film making is shrinking at a rapid rate, so be patient this may take you awhile.

 

Wow you sure are right i just called photoshops and printing shops to no aval. Either they cannot make film for legal paper or they are digital or only use paper plates uuuuh! Patience your right i may need to start a new thread with a different title . Thanks for the input

 

I may be able to help you, I am about to list my complete plant for sale on here including a item 3985 posi plates, jjhuber plate burner all chemicals, collator and booklet maker, guillotine, Xante filmmaker Olivetti copier 2 risos 1a4 and 1a3. All in working order and all for 6000 pounds. May split if enough interest

 

I use a company in Ohio, they could make film from your files or film and plates for your 3302. They output film for most of the small shops in my area and are very reasonable with their prices, I'm sure they would mail to you.
