Add Dimension and Texture with Clear Ink....In-house!

Written by Lewan Solutions | July 8, 2013

Did you know you could add clear gloss ink to your in-house digital print jobs for incredible results using Xerox's Color 800/1000 Presses? Now EFI has taken this a step further, giving you the ability to add dimension to your graphics and text.

You can run heavy substrates up to 350 gsm (130lb cover) while taking advantage of a very unique application offering called “Multipass Clear Dry Ink”. This is an excellent way to provide an ultra-glossy, eye-catching look that resembles varnish and can be applied to text, images or full page floods. It has a raised look and is exclusive to the Xerox Color Press 800/1000 with the EFI controller. No design knowledge needed, very basic point and click required on the controller to achieve the effect! Easy!

For example, you can apply this to watermarks on a parking pass, or tickets, signage, posters, short run book covers and marketing collaterals so that your information will have a “POP” effect!
