I am struggling to print out CMYK separations. I am obviously missing a step, but in the print preview, each of the process colors seem to be just grayscale. I believe there is a way to make them halftone dots, but can't seem to find out how. I am just doing the artwork for a printer who has the machine to do this type of job if I can only print out the separations...please help!!

So, if I understand you correctly, I may have an inferior printer. Up to now, I have just printed simple 1 to 4 spot color separations off my laser and/or inkjet printer. Do I have to have FastRip or similar software and a different printer to accomplish this type of job?

This is for a screenprinting job for t-shirts. The image they want was sent in a .png format and it is only 2 primary colors, but they fade from dark to light in both colors. I am not sure how to use this ghostscript you reference. I think I am close, but I am missing a step somewhere. Thanks so much for your patience with me.

At this point, I have just "imported " the file into Corel Draw. When I trace the image to convert it to a vector file, it reflects 63 colors. I can merge several together, but it loses it's shading effect when I merge too many. That is why I would like to use a CMYK 4 color process if possible. But the whole ghostscript thing is confusing me. When I am in my print dialog box and select "print separations", I am unable to select the "use advanced settings" or the advanced tab in the options area. I am not sure why, but apparently something else needs to be selected or checked to allow me to use them
Before you go to the separations tab, select the Device Independent Postscript Driver as your printer. The advanced settings are not available unless you have first selected an postscript printer and in the absence of such a printer the above driver will work. You will be printing to a file. Then you can use the program Jersey Girl told you about.
OK....that worked perfectly..I can save the files as ps and open them, but how do I open them in ghostview?
