Various Printing Operations

Step 1¨ Prepare the Image to Be Printed

Use any application to create the image or document you want to print. Usually create text and graphic object data. Then set the colors corresponding to each foil color you want to use. For ex- ample, set the parts of the image that you want to print in gold foil to yellow and those of the image that you want to print in silver foil to white. When you want to print foil colors and black simulta- neously, set the area you want to print in black, too.

Set this area to gray (Prints in silver foil)

Set this area to gray (Prints in silver foil)

Set this area to yellow (Prints in gold foil)

Caution

Since all of the color and grayscale data is binarized in multi color printing, gradation cannot be represented.

Note

White portions of data (R=G=B=100%) are not printed.
