Screen Ruling
For optimum printing results, a 133 to 150 dpi screen should be used. Finer screens, up to a maximum of 200 dpi, can also give very good results with careful control of ink density. For dark, coloured images with a higher ink density, it may be necessary to remove some of the colour, depending on the quality of the image. This also reduces the drying time of the ink.

Printing Inks
Conventional positive drying inks should be used with or without infrared drying aids. UV inks can also be used. Avoid using inks that remain fresh overnight or that are stable in the ducts (this is essential for CX22, for which fully oxidising inks are recommended). Anti-stripping spray is recommended when printing several colours, especially for the CX22. Use laser-stable inks for subsequent laser printing. Consult your ink supplier for specific projects to ensure the ink is suitable.

Litho Printing
For best results on textured and embossed papers, increase the blanket pressure or use a softer blanket to ensure even ink deposit.

Varnishing
To obtain a gloss varnish, it is essential to pre-seal the surface. UV matt varnish for screen printing should be used first, followed by an application of UV gloss varnish to achieve the desired effect. Make sure you use appropriate inks before varnishing and that the inks are completely dry before applying the varnish. Not recommended for paper weights.

Blind Embossing
Blind embossing produces a final result that is attractive from the outside. For the following laser, we recommend shallow embossing to allow good feeding and avoid damaging the embossing.

Hot Foil Blocking
All finishes in the Conqueror range can be marked with film. The film blocker can recommend the most suitable film for the image and paper chosen.

Silk Screen
All finishes can be successfully silkscreened.
