Software Settings | The coating on this product is engineered for better than 300% ink coverage. A luster, or glossy paper setting is the appropriate starting point. However, we recommend that you try different settings to achieve optimum performance for your specific application. We also recommend a custom ICC profile for optimal results. Please refer to www.lexjet.com for a starting-point ICC profiles for some printers. |
Finishing/Post Processing | No post processing or finishing is required on this paper. However, a clear fixative may be applied to enhance certain areas of the print. We recommend 24 hours before putting behind glass. |
Light Fastness | The fading time of inkjet ink is a direct result of the inks that you choose, as well as the environment where the print is displayed. Although the fading process is inherent in all inkjet 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. LexJet's Sunset line of fibre-based materials all meet the Fine Art Trade Guild Standards for Limited Edition Prints (otherwise known as the Blue Wool 6 test). |
