Printer/Ink Compatibility |
Compatible with all thermal and piezo inkjet printers using water-based dye and pigment-based inks. |
Software Settings |
For the best and most consistent results, a profile should be created using an external color calibrator in conjunction with your RIP and color matching software. However, the bond or uncoated paper setting in most RIPs is appropriate. However, we recommend that you try a few different settings to achieve optimum performance for your specific application. |
Finishing/Post Processing |
It is always recommended that a protective laminate be applied after printing. Thermal or pressure sensitive laminates can be used on bond paper. Before applying the laminate, allow the image to dry for 24 hours. |
Light Fastness |
The fading time of inkjet ink is a direct result of the inks that you choose to use and the environment where the print is displayed. Please consult with your ink manufacturer for light fastness data. |
Optimal Service Environment |
For printing: 60-80° F, 50% Relative Humidity. |
Handling Recommendations |
Due to the absorptive nature of the coating, you should avoid touching the coated surface. It's always recommended that cotton gloves be used when handling inkjet coated materials. Rolls of LexJet film are supplied with the coated side facing out. |
Ideal Storage Conditions |
70° F (21° C), 50% R.H. (a controlled environment is recommended); store in original packaging. |
Shelf Life |
1 year from the LexJet ship date when stored in proper conditions. |
