WHO SHOULD INVEST IN THE ENTREPRENEUR PACKAGE?
Printers who want to get serious about their business. Let's take a look at the press, one of the most important aspects in a print shop. The Riley Hopkins 360 Press is for the printer who is frustrated with their current press because it cannot keep up with customers' demands. It's for the printer whose business is booming with large orders and multi-colored jobs continuously rolling in.
The press has all the goodies you wished you had in your current press — components that dial in registration, speed up processes, and allow flexibility for on-the-fly adjustments. Plus, the 300 is heavy duty. The press is meant to live in your shop forever.

Besides the press, printers wanting to up their game can with a LED exposure unit. LED is the new standard. LED bulbs in our exposure units were designed specifically for exposing screens. The bulbs produce an optimal UV wavelength (which works for both dual cure and photopolymer emulsions). Having optimal UV wavelengths mean you're able to expose your screens faster and produce better detail. You'll be able to replicate the same quality burns from a great exposure platform, each and every time. LED exposure units have many other benefits like less energy usage, better consistency, faster exposure times, and more. LED exposure units make better screens.

WHERE SHOULD I START MY SHOP?
Screen printers know how to get creative with the spaces available to them. Many, many screen printers work out of a basement, spare bedroom, or garage when they first start. With the Entrepreneur Package, it would be best to setup in a larger space like a garage because the press is larger. Check out this blog to learn about best practices of setting up a print shop in a garage.
