Print Gocco is a tabletop silk-screen unit which requires no chemicals, no darkroom, no big unwieldy wooden frames.
The printed area is about 3.5" x 5" - perfect for cards, postcards or text and image in handmade books.With Print Gocco, you can print several colors at once without a separate screen for each color, or make color separations for art prints or CMYK.

  • Create your design using clipart, computer graphics, photocopies or a hand drawing.
  • Transfer your design onto a master in an instant using two flash bulbs.
  • Apply ink colors to this master and start printing. You can make up to 80 prints with one inking, and easily add or change ink to print more.
  • You can research some cool gocco artwork and all kinds of technical information from Nehoc , an Australian website. Also, check out Shu Ju Wang's excellent site at fingers to the bone.
