Default Re: How to alleviate the crosshatching of the screen when printing a half tone gradient

Change the halftones to somewhere between 30 and 45. You should be fine with a larger dot size with this art and still look good. Easier to burn and manage when printing as well. Change your angle to 25°
Also use the Elliptical dot pattern.

That crosshatch patter is due to a bad burn. You did not washout the image 100%.

Go to a higher dot size/pattern or lower your burn time to get a better/correct burn
