Color Materials Usage Guide

Introduction

Today, office documents are no longer limited to black and white. There are literally thousands of choices: colors, images, paper and multiple technology options. Desktop publishing, color laser printing, on-demand and digital full-color printing offer many document creation choices but also present some challenging questions — especially when it comes to choosing paper.

Making the best decision

Which paper is best for a full-color image? Which papers work best with different print technologies and applications? How does dry ink interact with paper? Which papers offer the highest performance and value? What about grades, weights, shades, textures and finishes?

Answers to these question and more

The Color Materials Usage Guide gives you an inside look at the differences in the way paper is made and how it influences reliability and image quality; how dry ink particles, ink and paper fibers interact; and how you can improve productivity by using papers that are compatible with your equipment and application.

Papers for today’s business

Because of the growing demand for more sophisticated printing papers in digital print environments, paper mills are beginning to offer a wide range of papers specifically designed for optimum performance on today’s advanced, full-featured color printers.This Color Materials Usage Guide explores the options and shows you how to specify the right paper for the best results.
