Printer/Ink Compatibility |
Compatible all inkjet printers using eco solvent, solvent, latex and UV-curable ink. |
Software Settings |
Printer settings will vary between printer manufacturers. Recommended heater settings: Pre-heat 30° C, platen 33° C and post-heat 35° C have been found as a good place to start. |
Color Matching |
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, if these tools are not available use one of the onboard media settings for matte white calendered vinyl. |
Finishing/Post Processing |
Before finishing, trimming and installing the graphic, allow the image to completely evaporate and dry for a minimum of 24 hours to ensure the solvents are gone from the print. Failure to do so may facilitate solvent penetration, resulting in vinyl degradation. |
Approved Anti-Slip Laminates |
LexJet Performance Textured Polypropylene Laminate (5 Mil), LexJet Floor Velvet (5 Mil), and LexJet Floor Gloss Laminate (3 Mil) are UL Classified for slip resistance. |
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. Contact the ink manufacturer for light-fastness data. |
Removability/Expected Life |
