Ternes Burton

printmaking and Registration

If you intend to print multiple colours, then you will need some sort of system to ensure all prints in the edition are the same.

I experimented and settled on using Ternes Burton tags and pins to always have my prints line up. I also make a back board which has a cutout the size of my linocut plate. the backboard has the pins. each sheet of paper has the tags taped to the back and the pins are used to position the paper when taping the tags on.
