Print Lab: Riso Photo FX

Riso, newsprint, silkscreen, engraving, stipple — five real print processes. Screens freshly recalibrated: faces and fine detail hold up, right out of the box.

Print Lab turns ordinary photos into print-textured artwork — the kind of ink, dot, and paper character you'd get from an actual Risograph, a newspaper press, a screen-printing shop, or a copperplate engraver's bench.

FIVE PRINT STYLES

Risograph — bold duotone color separation with visible halftone dots and the slight color misregistration that gives real riso prints their handmade look.

Newspaper — high-contrast black and white with authentic newsprint grain and halftone dot screening.

Screen Print — flat, posterized color with a coarse screen pattern, like a hand-pulled silkscreen poster.

Engraving — fine wavy lines that swell in the shadows and cross-hatch in the darks, like a banknote etching.

Stipple — thousands of tiny ink dots whose density carries the tone, like a vintage stamp.

MADE FOR

Independent designers, photographers, illustrators, poster and zine makers, musicians and podcasters who need a fast, recognizable print look for covers, social posts, and prints — without learning prepress software.

HOW IT WORKS

Pick a photo, pick a style, and Print Lab renders it instantly. Adjust texture and grain with two simple sliders and see the result update live. Compare before and after, then export — free, up to 2048px on the long edge, plenty for social media and messaging.

PRINT LAB PRO

All five styles are free to use at full quality preview. A one-time Pro purchase (no subscription) unlocks export at your photo's full original resolution — real print-quality output, not a downscaled preview.

PRIVACY, BY DESIGN

Your photos are processed entirely on this device and never uploaded anywhere. Print Lab only asks for permission to add exported images to your photo library — it cannot read your existing photos beyond the ones you explicitly pick. All print textures (paper grain, ink grain, halftone screens) are generated procedurally by Print Lab itself; this app ships no third-party image assets, fonts, or textures.

Print Lab is a focused tool, not a general-purpose photo editor. It does one thing: turning digital photos into print-styled artwork.
