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 40-45° C, platen 45-50° C and post-heat 50° 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. |
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. |
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. |
