These Aquatint screens, also known as Stochastic screens, are printed on a high-resolution imagesetter film (produced especially for the use of continuous tone positives with photopolymer films and/or Toyobo Photopolymer Plates KM73).  The screens produce deep blacks and delicate greys in the final print.

The Aquatint Screen Danish is a screen that has a dot pattern that is opaque. This pattern effectively simulates the random dot of a fine aquatint. Exposing the Aquatint Screen to a photosensitive plate will create an overall aquatint-like base.
