Figure 7.5-11: Opacity Contrast Down
Choke combats the phenomena that when printing the White ink Underbase onto a garment the
garment will expand and swell. This is the same for any type of garment printing including screen
printing. The Choke setting slightly reduces the outside dimensions of the Underbase so that white ink
does not appear outside the prints edges of the final color pass. (Figure 7.5-12) Under the Choke setting
use the default value of 2 on a full size print, you will lower this if your image is small. If you see any
white around the edges of your final print you will want to increase the choke value. (See image 7.5-12)
Figure 7.5-12: Choke Needed
If you are printing an image that is only white you will need to set the Choke to 0 to prevent parts from
dropping out completely. (Figures 7.5-13 and 7.5-14)
