Have your lams professionally made. I have many expensive printers and they cannot do the quailty of a screen print. A printer that knows how to work with the right papers and inks is well worth it. Making lams is an art. If your don't care about the quality of your boards do a lam on a ink jet printer.
If you want your lams to be pro have them screened.
Take your art work to your printer in *.ai format (Adobe illustrator) so your art does not get pixalated.
It cost about $125 set up for your screens and about $5.00 a sheet maybe 10 lams per sheet = $0.50 per lam or $1.00 per board once you have your screens made.
I have a HP Photosmart C7280 for the office
Lexmark X2670 for making rocker profiles (Banner Function) cheap
HP Wide Format Printer 42" Z series (Full board outlines) Artwork (expensive)
HP Designjet Z3200 44" Photo Printer

Hey what types of things would you like printed on a surfboard? I am a graphic designer who is doing a degree project on surfboard graphics, and am designing a system to create custom graphics. Pics of experiments on my blog @ rshawgo@blogspot.com. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
