Software Settings |
The coating on this product is engineered for better than 300% ink coverage. A photo luster, satin or semi-gloss setting is the recommended starting point. However, we recommend a custom ICC profile for optimal results. Please refer to www.lexjet.com for starting-point ICC profiles for some printers. |
Finishing/Post Processing |
For image stability and permanence it is always recommended that you protect the printed side. This can be done by mounting under glass, clear coating, photographic sleeves or laminating. |
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. |
