With Overprint enabled, the system arranges the order in which the colors on your label print so that black prints last and prints over
zany previously printed colors on objects that overlap.
With Overprint disabled, areas where black is to be applied are left blank until black prints. You may see a slight gap between the color areas and the black areas.
Important! If you are printing using spot color and your label has colored layers over black background objects, be sure to turn Overprint OFF. Otherwise, black will obscure the colored layers.
Many users leave Overprint enabled at all times. The main disadvantage to using Overprint as the default setting is that printing may be slower, because the system takes the time to analyze the colors in the print job and orders them accordingly. You may have to swap ribbons more frequently as well.
