Software Settings |
The coating on this product is engineered for better than 400% ink coverage. The Heavy Weight Coated setting in most RIPs is appropriate; however, we recommend a custom ICC profile for optimal results. Please refer to www.lexjet.com for ICC profiles for some printers. |
Light Fastness |
The fading time of ink jet ink is a direct result of the inks that you choose, as well as the environment where the print is displayed. All dye-based inks fade noticeably under direct sunlight and in interior applications where direct sunlight may fall on the image, and/or, where fluorescent or other UV lighting is present. Although the fading process is inherent in all ink jet inks, certain UV enhanced inks, pigment-based inks, and UV inhibiting coatings will extend the longevity of ink color. Contact the ink manufacturer to determine a specific ink's suitability for a particular application. |
Finishing/Post Processing |
Use a carbide knife for kiss and die cutting. For additional protection, liquid or spray coatings are recommended. Recommended outdoors for up to six months without additional protection. |
Optimal Print Environment |
