What is Gocco

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.
