Abstract: The article presents a project for students: Duotone production with screen printing. You can integrate halftone or duotone production into a graphic communications class even if you lack access to an offset press. The approach described here, in fact, offers a benefit in that the dots involved in offset printing are so small that they are hard for students to see. You can maximize instructional value by screen printing halftones and duotones with enlarged, easily visible dots. Let us begin with a bit of history and background that provides information on what a duotone is and some of the considerations involved in producing them.
