Re: [QuadtoneRIP] UV transmisison characteristics of Epson K3 inks

2014-03-04 by David Kachel

Selecting inks for use in a QTR profile for alternative printing with UV
processes definitely must have other considerations than those used in line
or halftone printing in silkscreen. It is also quite different than the
requirements for making monochrome inkjet prints on paper. I am attaching a
table that shows the UV readings of the K3 inks on Pictorico, as measured
with a UV densitometer at 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%.




Thanks,


I couldn't help but notice that Matte Black is missing. Isn't it the best UV
blocker of the lot?
