At Bushwick Print Lab we offer a range of screen processing services.
Clients may bring their own used screens for processing by BPL staff, or purchase new screens from BPL.
We recommend sourcing new screens larger than 25×36″ from www.victoryfactory.com
You may ship directly to us (via UPS ONLY) once files are prepped for print.

All artwork files for screens may be sent to info@bushwickprintlab.org.
Files should be sent at final print size, at 300 DPI resolution, in black and white with no grey pixels, black where the ink will print. Click here to see our guidelines for file submission.
Film positives are $7/sq ft. To calculate your cost in advance of a quote:
Multiply the dimensional inches of each image and divide by 144 = sq footage x $7
ie. 18 x 24 inches = 432 inches ÷ 144 = 3 sq ft x $7 = $21
Normal turnaround time for screen processing is 2-3 days. Rush jobs can sometimes be accommodated for an additional fee of $25 for same day, or $15 for next day.
