Overview

Spot Color Printing

Spot color printing uses non-CMYK spot color inks. This enables printing of a color image on top of a white ink to

make the colors more vivid, or printing gloss ink on top of a color image to provide a gloss nish. Primer ink can

also be printed underneath a color image to improve adhesion to the media.

[1]: Base (White or primer ink)

[2]: Image or illustration (CMYK, etc.)

[3]: Finish (Gloss nish with a gloss ink)

Overview

Available Print Types

This section describes the types of printing that use white ink (W), gloss ink (Gl), and primer ink (Pr).

Print types

Print Control can be used to specify the combination of color ink, white ink, gloss ink, and primer ink. Cyan,

magenta, yellow, and black are referred to as 4C.

IMPORTANT

Printing with gloss ink (Gl) must be done through a separate print job than that of the other inks,

and the image must be rasterized using the Standard output prole (resolution: 635 × 600 dpi).

Outputting in the same job as 4C is only possible when the print mode is "4C-Gl_Standard." In such cases, the

gloss ink is printed with a matte nish.

[1]: Gloss ink

[2]: Color ink

[3]: White ink

[4]: Primer ink

Color set

Application example

Overview

W - 4C

White ink is used as the base for color data.

4C - Gl*1

Gloss ink is applied on top of color data.

Pr - 4C

Primer ink is used as the base of the color data.

W - 4C

+ Gl (separate job)*2

White ink is used as the base for color data. Coating with

gloss ink is performed in a separate job.

Pr - W - 4C

White ink and primer ink are used as the base of the color

data.

Pr - 4C

+ Gl (separate job)*2

Primer ink is used as the base of the color data. Coating

with gloss ink is performed in a separate job.

Overview

Color set

Application example

Overview

Pr - W - 4C

+ Gl (separate job)*2

White ink and primer ink are used as the base of the color

data. Coating with gloss ink is performed in a separate job.

4C - W

White ink is used on top of the color data. This is mainly

used for reverse printing on transparent media.

Pr - 4C - W

Primer ink is used as the base of the color data, and white

ink is used on top of the color data. This is mainly used for

reverse printing on transparent media.

*1:

This set can be used when the print mode is set to "4C - Gl _ Standard." In this case, the gloss ink has a matte nish.

*2:

This set can be used when RIP is performed at Standard (635×600dpi). Adjusting the UV lamp position enables

printing with a gloss nish using gloss ink. (If the UV lamp position is not adjusted, a matte nish will be produced.)

Print Data Types

Spot color print data comes in one of the following patterns.

Spot color only printing

Print data for spot colors must be created.

Creating Print Data for Spot Colors

This section describes how to create the following print data using Adobe Illustrator.

Laminate the pattern using gloss spot color, and print white spot color on the base.

[1]: Finish (Gloss nish with a gloss ink)

[2]: Image or illustration (CMYK)

[3]: Base (White or primer ink)

Procedure

A Congure the layer settings.

Make three layers, and stack them as shown in the gure.

Congure the settings for each layer ([1] to [3]) as follows.

Layer name Swatch (*1) Overprint Fill (*2)

Layer [1] Gloss Spot2 On

Layer [2] CMYK No On

Layer [3] White Spot1 O󰀨

*1: Specify a swatch for each object within a layer.

*2: "Overprint Fill" in the "Attributes" window

IMPORTANT

If the overprint settings are not congured, areas that overlap the object below will not be printed.

B Specify a spot color.

Create two new swatches, and congure the settings as follows.

Swatch Name Color Type

Swatch [1] Spot1 Spot color

Swatch [2] Spot2 Spot color

IMPORTANT

A spot color must be specied for every object printed with white, gloss, or primer ink. This ensures the RIP

software and the printer can recognize the print area for the spot color correctly. Congure the settings as

indicated below.

Creating a RIP File (Without Gloss Finish)

This section describes how to create a RIP le using SAi FlexiPRINT Production Manager 19. For information on

how to create les using other RIP software, contact the applicable software distributor.

MEMO

• Selecting an output prole that is suitable for the color set used for spot color printing from the general-

purpose proles available ensures output with optimal color management.

• For basic information on using the RIP software, such as how to set the media size and layout for print data,

refer to the Help manual included with the software.

Procedure

A Read the spot color print data or pattern print data using the RIP software.

Add the print data as a RIP software job.

B Double-click the added job.

Double-click to open the [Job Properties] window.
